Routine is everything with kids (at least it was with mine). At the appointed time, after her show, (usually Spongebob or the reading of a book she chose) we brushed the teeth, said our prayers/I sang her the same lullaby and she went to bed. Since she bored easily, I turned on a radio (no screen!) to classical music…

Yes, thats one issue, but the lack of notifications of “recommendations” (stars) and who gave them is annoying as well. At least notifications of replies still works (sometimes). Seems to me they are droppng their visit numbers and clicks and that is the death of any website advertising numbers, which I hate to see,…

Regarding language Kinja-speak. I somehow missed the announcement, so are the changes in notifications, etc. a tech issue that is being fixed or a “new format”. If its a tech issue, ok, if its perm, can someone let me know where everyone is going to go so I can go too? Love you Giz, been with you a long time through…

I remember those days with a new (colicky) baby and it seems like you wont ever sleep again (you will, but it will take longer than anyone tells you it will). It felt like I was in a haze all the time and it causes so many issues in every area of your life including work, relationships and health-mental & physical. Wri…

I keep my lawn just so I can yell at the neighborhood kids to get off of it.

I have been getting a lot of recruitment emails in from Texas and I waste no time in letting them know I have no interest in relocation there, but I wish them luck and then chuckle to myself that they are going to need it.

Welcome aboard, good luck and don’t let these folks cow you; they will if you let them, but set that stiff upper lip and have at it.

Penguin PTSD.

He isn’t anymore, someone turned him loose.

I wish Kinja would include in the reasons for flagging a comment that the commenter is just a worthless asshole occupying areas that are inhabitable for actual human beings. Since that is not an option, I feel nothing for the dead, useless, but well named commenter in the grays. May he stay there forever and a week.

The microscopic algae at first (to me) looked like some odd formation of coding.  Did not look like a living thing at all. 

Too bad this isn’t a competition, like the Olympics, etc. People would be standing in line waving flags and shouting “USA USA USA, we cant let those losers from (fill in any of the 39 country names) beat us”.

Don’t ruin my weekend.

Hmmm.... I have a sinus infection, and I had no plans for the the weekend...... sounds like a little research is called for.

I believe this same practice was featured in “A Clockwork Orange” and it didn’t go well there either.

Love the clip (I needed a laugh) and I think that guy must be married to the lady who complained that deer crossing signs needed to be moved because she kept hitting deer near them.

Under the broad term of “aiding and abetting”, could that not include the man who got the woman pregnant? I mean he would be a major contributing factor to the situation. You start charging men under this law, and this shit will stop fast.

I make a “plant cocoon” without a cage by making a little “newspaper hat” a few layers (pages) thick and weighting its edges down with rocks, etc., (after the final cut back in fall). Seems to have worked fine for years for my roses in our cold Ohio winters.

Why can’t Trump use his magic Sharpie to draw the path of the storm to California and put out the fires? I mean, he IS all powerful. Shame he wants to sacrifice the people of TN so the liberals in CA all burn in earthly hell.

My HR friends will tell you that about every industry, even the ones that there is no real reason to have drug testing for safety reasons, and they only do because the company gets a $ break on their WC insurance for testing.
