I did something (awful and I’m sooo ashamed, lol) just like this to my sophomore honors English teacher... He misspelled “across” one day on the overhead; I pointed this out and asked him what he had his degree in; he replied “business”; I laughed with the rest of the class and later skipped 4th period for the week he

After I left my ex, he bought a fedora. (I spent years before telling him why he shouldn’t own one). It is ill-fitting, and he looks ridiculous in it. It totally fits his personality, however....

I once got really, really good advice from my stepmom: “we tip based on the mess we (us + kids) make”. I always thought I tipped okay.... After having a kid with autism, on the rare event that we take him out to eat, we now aim for 25%.

Thank you so, so much!

Jezzies, I need help. I met a guy about 1.5 years ago. Love at first sight for me, and I’m an old, so I trust it. Problem is, he’s a complete pacifist, sweet, caring, and chill dude. His ex is a horrible, manipulative bitch. It took him forever to even see it. They share custody. She crosses the line often: bought him

Thank you, MoU!

I’m completely in that (sinking) boat with you. I have topics of things that really freak me out, and those, along with other people, mean that I just can’t adult sometimes.

Humblebragging here; the best costume I saw all night was on my own son!

I’m really grateful for my daily walks right about now.

Yes! I was PSYCHIC when preggo. I knew I was pregnant before any test confirmed it, I knew I was having a boy, and I predicted my due date (5 days early) months ahead.

My son, 7.

I’m drinking a yummy lager and watching The Gruffalo with my 7 year old while he ODs on candy!

So, are we in accord? You bring the cat hats; I’ll bring the Nikon??

Why my career isn’t photographing dandy cats for overpriced calendars, I’ll never know.

I just came here to tell you I love your username. Also, aren’t cats better looking with tiny glasses??

My brother has been dead now for 13 years. I have a 7 year old son. Both my mother and my stepmother have said (independently of one another) that my brother was present for my son’s birth. And even weirder, my son at age 3 woke up one night, came downstairs, and said he saw “Uncle (brother’s name)“. We never referred

Or, do what I did with my (now ex-)husband: we got our (same) astrological symbol tattooed on our upper arms. It seldom shows because I like sleeves. When someone does see it, I like to tell them (because I’m obnoxious that way) that I make no big decisions without consulting my horoscope. It’s been a useful tool for

You deserve a medal for, a) working hard at your mom’s house, b) taking good care of her dogs, c) scheduling yourself around the shitty BF, d) being nice to your mom after all this, and e) not strangling his drink ass some night. If BF is this much of a jackass to you, he’s doing it to her too. What I do when my mom

I kept my maiden name when I married my son’s father. Kid is 7 now and his school has never had a question as to whose mom I am. (They just regularly mispronounce the kid’s last name, ugh.) My new issue (and maybe any of you have ideas) is that I’m engaged to someone I love so dearly, I am considering changing my
