OMG you are living my dream! How fun! You’ll have to post the blog here when your hands are featured so we can see :). This week’s nails are courtesy of my Ipsy bag.

And here is our mascot.

no advice on the marriage front, but I am in awe of your awesome mom skills. one day your kids are going to realize that you literally BRUSHED TURDS for them and they are going to be like “wow my mom really loves me.” sometimes I realize the crazy shit my parents have done for me and it makes me feel warm and happy…

Motherhood/marriage-related rant (and I apologize in advance for the TMI/grossness/bummer content). So, my younger daughter has been complaining of abdominal pain for some time now, and I decided to investigate. So far she’s been diagnosed with a quite severe lactose intolerance and the doctor wants to test for…

You were never a feminist of any kind with those anti-feminist misconceptions about feminist traditions.

Yeah, and what did the husband say to make her lash out like that? Has the husband been making slight digs at the friend for years? We’ll never know. After reading this I can’t blame a spiritual person for not wanting to be around somebody who will write about my personal life for clicks.

I just wrote this above- I am kinda stunned by the warm reception to this article. She completely put her friend on blast for what sounds like a long-simmering issue in their group. All without mentioning what the husband said to make this person lash out the way she did. We are clearly only getting a tip of the story…

This is why I hate people and prefer to hide inside my house with my dogs and my internet.

I can’t remember the last time I read such a holier-than-thou post.

Dear gods, is this perfect timing. This past summer, my best friend suddenly became hostile and unfriendly; no warning, no explanation, no anything. Then I found out that she had been excluding me from activities we used to do with two other gfs, and then posting their fun on Facebook for me to see. This put the other…

That comment will likely sting your husband for years.

AH I am excited. In case anyone’s forgotten about Mark Ronson’s collab with Amy Winehouse:

fuck that line really, really hit home

I lived with a girlfriend for 4 years, we had adopted a cat, dog & turtle who were all abandoned. She got a great new job in another state, we were looking for places but nobody would let us take all 3. She said we should give them up. It honestly shocked me she would say that, instantly in my head I thought “Bitch,…

Our curmudgeonly old boy passed unexpectedly last night. We came home to our door wide open and still locked. Nothing was taken but somehow (strong winds yesterday perhaps) our door was wide open when we got home. We found our cats and got them inside safely. Our pup however was not so fortunate. I found him lying in…

How painful that you couldn’t be there at the end. But your writing is wonderful. Give yourself some downtime; it takes the pain a long time to lose its sharp edge, but it really never goes away.

I have often said, when the time comes for my pets and others’ to leave us, that the only consolation is that life gets so much easier. It doesn’t make us miss them less, or have loved them less. I understand the relief. They enrich our lives while they’re with us, and they free us when they leave us. It’s possible to…
