Yeah...my mom put a penny I passed in my baby book. Good times. 

Your poor dog. And poor you! The worst thing I’ve had to pull out of my dog’s butt is blades of grass.

This is an incisive criticism that I agree with.

Nothing should be about Rob Kardashian, ladies. Do better.

As will Kush. 

Bet 45's already got the pardons drafted.

I liked that Kal Penn was on this week, but not enough to watch the show. I eagerly devour your snarky recaps, though, Hazel. Thank you for your continued diligence!

I think there was something off in that household. Patterson’s brother has multiple convictions, including for sexual assault.

How pedantic. Both the Wetterling and Closs abductions dominated the news cycle on a near daily basis when they happened in the Minneapolis/St. Paul (where I live) news market as that is the nearest major metropolitan area to both abductions. 

Barron is a little over an hour from me and Jayme’s abduction (so close to where Jacob Wetterling was abducted) has been on our collective minds since it happened. I didn’t dare hope she would make it home alive and I’m so glad she was able to get herself out. Her abductor is a truly scary individual and I hope he…

So much about the 2016 election feels like Wag the Dog 2, Zany Director’s Cut.

LOL - that guy is my friend IRL. He probably wants to punch himself, but it’s a great gig if you’re a struggling actor.

I had a leaky pipe in my last home that ruined an entire 6' tall bookshelf full of books. They gathered mold and were unsalvageable. I’m still disturbed by it. Nevertheless, I managed to move about 25 boxes of books from my old house to new. I love books and I will never apologize for having multiple, double-layered…

I have never seen that movie because as a child, I found Young Tom Hanks very creepy. I will, however, take your word for it!

Also, it’s not like security won’t have the ward mostly cleared for Markle, because of security/privacy concerns. 

Meh - probably better dealing with her SIL than her half-sister! (Also, your sister sounds like a PITA).

but my Gillette Venus razor & its razor blades are blue. I have no idea how I could tell it was for a girl, or not, since it wasn’t pink.

Crisp Rat is, indeed, the most important takeaway from this entire post.

I have avoided wearing skirts since I was in first grade and heard the boys in my school telling everyone how they would pretend to drop change on the ground to look up girls’ skirts. The fact that now it can be done as a picture, legally, is disgusting. I agree, Hazel, the U.S. needs to get its shit together.

I watched the original Ghostbusters a few months ago when it was on tv. It...does not hold up well over time. I’ll likely watch this one for free when it comes on tv.
