This literally made me LOL. “that thing.”

aaaaand i just realized i accidentally used my real name in my post. welp, cat’s outta the bag!

Well, her page is locked down, but they’re still friends on FB, and I GUARANTEE he didn’t vote for Trump - although if he did, that would in fact be a dealbreaker.  On my dating profile, I specifically say, “If you voted for a rotting, bigoted orange, swipe left and go eat a battery.”

Oooh mazel tov! I like this story.

Lil bit late to the party, but I thought I’d just share a little bit of weirdly hilarious/exciting news. I’m now on a dating app, and the other day, I was bored and swiping, when my middle school obsession showed up on my list. And when I say obsession, I mean that I had like, a shrine to this kid in my room. He was…

You know, I get faith back for a while that things have improved... and then I read shit like this and suddenly I’m 14 again and I think of the teacher who told me, when I tried to report my rape in a classroom, that she “didn’t want to hear about my relationship problems.” Fuck this judge and fuck this kid. “Should…

No one is saying it was a bad dress.  But it was inappropriate for the occasion.  I’d call a guy out if he wore flip flops or a polo to something like this.  

Yeah, I have a dress from Express that looks very similar to that one, but with cold shoulders, and I would never wear it to an office.  For the love of God.

I mean, to be fair, I worked at Sephora while also running my own successful business just cause I needed something different and fun... but I also wasn’t asking people to interview at 10pm! What a gross asshole. He has no business near recovering addicts. 

Right? He also had the nerve to ask through one of those disappearing photo things that you can send text on in addition to photos. So I don’t have the actual proof of it, but the stupidity stands.

I accidentally took a screenshot of the ab photo (the iPhone makes it unbelievably easy to take inadvertent screenshots…

Coffee or a glass of wine is good, because it’s quick and dirty - you can escape fairly soon after the date starts if the person feels like a creep. Dinner is always bad because it traps you there.

My middle name is Marie, after my badass grandmother who got in barfights during her time in the Army.  Excellent choice! :D

Fun miscellaneous stuff from this week:

I’m so, so sorry for your loss.  I wish I had something helpful to add, but please know that I am thinking of you, dear internet stranger, and I hope that you find whatever peace you can, when you can, in your own time.

I don’t have the energy to respond to every single post made here (I’m running short on spoons right now) but I wanted to say thank you very, very much for replying to me, whether you gave me advice or just gave me supportive, kind words. I read every one. The ex and I went to the zoo yesterday and actually had a…

This is... the nicest thing anyone has said to me all month.  Seriously.  The fact that you remember that I wrote that story, that people STILL read and love it so much even five years later... it means so much to me.  It reminds me that once upon a time, I was more than this relationship.  Thank you.

Ipsy sent me this serum this month in my GlamBag Plus ($30 for five full size products): https://www.ipsy.com/product/p-jjaaw8dwooor1044

YAAAAAAS PRINCESS

I’m so... exhausted.

I didn’t know that gay students are something to be “handled.”
