It is a residential block; I work in the schools :) I'm sure I'm fine. Just a nervous nelly. My previous neighborhood (East Lakeview) didn't really participate in dibs, and I have a spot at my current apartment. So I'm mostly good to go.

I have to park on the street for work, and I'm honestly terrified for the well being of my car. The spot I chose was NOT marked, no dibs in sight, but it was shoveled out. I'm seriously considering leaving early so I can vacate the spot before the owner gets home.

I teared up, that aspect specifically was so awesome.

My sister was one of those kids that would only eat chicken nuggets. My parents stopped giving a fuck and just made them to keep the peace while the rest of us ate pork chops, spaghetti, ribs, etc. Until one day, we were out to dinner and she had a meltdown because they weren't the "right" chicken tenders. From then…

-My friends just did "trapped in a room with a zombie" which is a group problem solving activity thing and they had a blast.

Is it scary? I'm such a weenie. I'm totally fine with suspenseful shows like Breaking Bad and violence like in the Wire or Sons of Anarchy, but the Following scared the ever living shit out of me.

I had a tow truck driver return my wallet. He found it on the side of lakeshore drive in Chicago when towing someone. It was February and there was snow and slush everywhere. It had apparently fallen out during one of the 3 times I made the cab pull over so I could barf. This saintly man found the wallet, 411'd the…

I kinda felt the same way with the kind that's sorta like a half leotard; I'm not large I just wanted to be smoothed out. I felt like it made me boxy looking. I just bought another set of the thigh and butt ones, mostly because I have a bridesmaids dress that a smidge too small and i'm hoping it'll help to streamline…

Now that us kids are grown up, my mom will talk about the differences between us. I, the oldest, was apparently a great kid. Of course I had my meltdowns and whatnot, but I let my mom do my hair however, I ate anything, I didn't have any weird habits, I was always a good student. I was a teenage drama nightmare, but…

wait like 2 weeks and it'll be 60% off.

I don't have a cat, but I do have a dog, and the sofa is still destroyed from the dog hair/crazy dog ball chase games/dirty paws when I can't catch her fast enough after a walk. Basically, if you want pristine, nice furniture, don't have a pet. Or friends that spill things.

WHAT (sips some Malbec) that is great news! Thank you! Also I want to share that I went to Bread and Wine on Irving park tonight and it was fantastic. 1/2 off bottles of wine on Wednesdays :)

It's so good. They make it in a cast iron pan so the crust is caramalized. Pro tip: you can wait at the Drinking Bird next door. Then after hit up Webster wine bar. Pequods doesn't have a great drink list but the places nearby do.

Except for Pequod's. That place is amazi... nevermind it's terrible nobody go there (::looks around nervously::).

The worst thing is: THESE ARE ALL PUBLIC SPACES. It's a city street. You do not own it. So just go fuck yourself, really. I live in Chicago, I parked on the street for two years. It really, really fucking sucked to shovel my car out. But do you have to do it every day? Hell no! It doesn't snow THAT much. My…

I was kicked out. My friend was having her sister and three friends (including me) in her bridal party. We tried on dresses, etc. A couple months after she asked me, she realized her future sister in law was assuming she had a spot in the bridal party. The bride couldn't/wouldn't refuse her, nor would she have an…

At first glance I read "Matt LeBlanc" and I was all, sure, who wouldn't?

I used to work weddings, so I have strong opinions on this. I can't even tell you how many times I had an 8 or 9 year old having a MELT DOWN because they wanted chicken tenders and their parents ordered them the adult meal. We don't have extra. We are a catering company, not a restaurant, and a very specific amount of…

For real. That would be a dealbreaker for me. That and stating "Two and a Half Men is my favorite show!". I wonder how many potential husbands I turned away...
