I believe that is actually a newer building that is LEED certified with a roof garden. The rest of the campus is still very much retro. My mom is an alumni and I went with her to a reunion there 10 years ago. Interesting tidbit, we were using the restroom and Chelsea Clinton (who was there for her own reunion) came…

I showed up at the midnight book release for the last 3 books-no sense in stopping now.

Our version was simply called spice soup and consisted of taste testing hot water as we gradually added one spice after another. Eventually we would hit upon seasoned salt and declare it was done. It was then eaten with white bread.

I was just recalling my love for Last Holiday-in addition to my love that the movie doesn’t focus on the color of her skin I really needed that reminder that a curvy lady can play a love interest. As a curvy lady myself who grew up watching many rom coms I just didn’t see people like me ever getting the guy. The…

Did you ever see Something New? That was the first time I found out black debutante balls even existed. My best friend and I were both obsessed with dressing up in gowns when we were little so I was very disappointed to find out that we both missed out on that cultural experience as teenagers-a potential debutante…

I’m trying really hard not to be jaded while living in a big city so I tend to immediately smile at people when they ask me questions but I hate it when it backfires on you. The last bad experience was on a train platform and I was purposely ignoring the man who smelled of beer wandering around. Unfortunately he honed…

You are absolutely right which is why I added the paranoid bit. I wish I could get over how creeped out I feel because I can’t pinpoint it to anything in particular. At first after I said I wasn’t available I tried to maintain my status of being friendly because it was an honest mistake on his part. But his attitude…

There is a security guard at my building who I suspected might like me because I would catch him staring at me every day I left the building. I just tried to smile and say goodbye as I do with every employee I encounter on the way out, all the while hoping that it was just in my head. I would also run after work…

Sriracha in red pepper soup is AMAZING. Add some sour cream and bacon and you have yourself a winner.

I was more pointing out the error in the reporting so that it could be fixed-I’m pretty sure the police report stated that he was threatening suicide and not threatening to kill her. No matter what the whole situation is upsetting and I am fully aware that it is abusive and manipulating. But-hypothetically-I feel like…

I thought he pointed the gun at himself? Not her. Still traumatic but I’m a little less upset about him holding it to his own head.

UC alum here-completely agree with your assessment.

My boyfriend will be 38 and I’m 7 years younger than him and we both want children...I’m comfortable waiting a few years but I’m nervous for him. Any advice?

stealing this idea...

damnit...yes. BUT that loves saves the world. The WORLD!

I had to think a moment but good ole Pixar came to the rescue!

Totally agree-that movie was downright chilling and yeah, there is a sexy robot but that ends up being the reason for their downfall. Wet dream turned nightmare.
