It really holds up to re-readings unlike a lot of mysteries. One of my favorite books.

I’m older than him!? Damn, I do look good for my age.

My daughter used to go to school with a kid named Bear.

I need to get this and have one of those AT-AT lawn ornaments chasing him.

I’m going to be the shortest very soon. My youngest (9yo daughter) is borrowing my shoes.

Fuck Bevin and those dudes.

That’s a beautiful telling if an ugly story. So sorry for your loss.

44 here and for Mother’s Day my oldest is taller than me.

Target has gorgeous cards that are blank inside that would work for multiple occasions. I absolutely love them.

I learned so much about cooking from that show. It was basic but so informative.

That’s what I want.

I’m the mom. I doubt my family has plans. They aren’t good with the planning. Or cooking. Going out for breakfast/brunch is tricky since I’m lactose intolerant. Though, I do love a good Bloody Mary.

Subtle burn. I appreciate that.

Thanks! I had two beers and fell asleep around 10/10:30. I partied like a rock star, clearly.

Don’t forget gay. God wouldn’t have saved him if he wasn’t afflicted with the horrible pre-existing condition of homosexuality.

I spent months telling them that we wouldn’t renew if the deal wasn’t good enough. I spent hours in meetings with all the possible stakeholders asking about their needs and aligning them on message. I then had the vendor issue iteration after iteration of an offer that I rejected and demanded they make better or else…

I knew a guy in college who suffered from bulemia and he was pretty upfront about how crappy treatment options were for men/boys. I hope things have improved.  

There’s an upfront cost, but it can last for a few years, depending on how big your garden is. Marigolds are a natural repellent for some critters.

There’s stuff that gets into the soil (I think) and works despite rain if it has 24 dry hours.

Cook yourself a meal you wouldn’t normally because of time or kid presence.
