I remember sitting in my husband’s former boss’ living room when President Obama gave his first victory speech, trying with all my might to not lose it in mixed company - in my wildest dreams I never thought I’d see a black man become president. I let my 3 year old son sit up to “watch” the President’s farewell and my…

Same. We’ve been together for 12 years, and I’ve handled the birth control and the birthing. It’s his turn. He either gets fixed or we’ll get a van. Especially after next week when birth control will either cost an exorbitant amount or mysteriously vanish.

Yes.

Thank you for this. I love you.

There is always Netflix!

We have “grown up time” because mommy and daddy need to spend time together. Sometimes it’s sex, mostly it’s watching child-unfriendly tv, but I like to think we’re reinforcing that a healthy relationship is more than just child-rearing.

And it only amplifies once the baby is actually born.

Going out on New Year’s Eve is for the youths and the rubes. I have no qualms about playing backgammon with my husband, cracking open the prosecco at 8 because midnight is not the boss of me, and being in bed in approximately 15 more minutes.

You should check out Dietland by Sarai Walker. It’s intentionally outlandish but totally embraces being “unfuckable.”

Already sent my email. My mother and I would see the Christmas spectacular every year. Shame it’s a tradition I won’t be includin my children in now. My rant comes with a cost.

When we were in college my now husband and his roommate would watch it whenever it was on. I don’t know what channels 20-something frat boys watch but that shot was on a lot.

The town I used to live in was big on the pineapple=hospitality. In fact, one is “dropped” in the city center every new year in lieu of a ball. Color me surprised when we moved, a neighbor pulled me aside and expressed the talk of the block was my pineapple lamp flag because “it’s not that kind of neighborhood.”…

Ugh the comments on that article...Trump supporters were all “No 66 million people saw an attempt to POLITICIZE cyber security and we saw right through it!!1!1"

I never knew I needed this, but I needed this.

He also doesn’t care.

A lot of the time (like, the majority of the time) promotions and raises aren’t based solely on merit. It definitely helps to have a superior like you, to think positively of you, so they think of you when something comes up. For example, my husband has been offered multiple promotions on the golf course. “Malik” who…

After a presentation I gave on my boss’s behalf, he came up to congratulate me and said “Good job. Or should I say, YOU GO GIRL... sistah.” (The person who presented before me, received a “Nice presentation” for reference). I knew no matter how hard I worked, I’d be the living embodiment of every stereotype he’s ever…

Was it “birthin’ no babies”? Because that’s the only thing to know nothin’ about.

Oh you must be at my house. If I’m shelling out extra cash for organic juice boxes, little junior isn’t the only one indulging.
