You had me at “Poldark.”

The past rears its ugly head. I remember when she was first on Oprah how she talked about her family history—-her dad's alcoholism and physical violence, her mom shooting him in self defense. Sean better keep a lid on it...

The song lyrics are making me see marsala.

Why have I been spending money on workout clothes that wear out and get smelly when all I've really needed was a roll of hefty bags and a roll of duct tape? I'm over 50 and I work at a university. If I'm not willing to rock that look at the gym, who will? It's for the children. If not me, then who?

I am so thankful for you sharing this story. And you are awesome.

Maybe one winner, the human gene pool.

The "drama" solution to life's problems is not unique to lame boyfriends...

Don't you mean awesome slutty, childless cat lady?

For that matter, living with a belief that one is unloved or unlovable is tragic, and that is what I think these kinds of stories are all about.

This sort of story about why women have abortions is perpetuated by people who want to justify their policies to control women's bodies, sexual behavior and health. It reminds me of people who describe…

Rosie Perez on The View?!!! God bless America 3 times!

Hmmm. I had a partner who was like this as well. Very directive to the point where I felt like I was being supervised. Not sexy. I think it's important to know what works and to be able to communicate that with a partner, but the issue is then what? Is the reaction "yes, yes! YES!!!" or is it more an inward turning…

I know this sounds really disgusting, but I've stopped using soap all together. Every few days I use some baking soda diluted with water. Otherwise it's just basic friction and water. I know this means I'm coated with a rich layer of microbes. And yet. My skin looks so much better. Less dry. Better more even color. My…

I'm waiting for someone to question whether alcohol consumption might have contributed to the swelling. "She shouldn't have been drinking if she didn't want her eye to swell up so much when I punched it!"

Oh gosh. Where to begin...
