I noticed that too and went on a huge AC nerd rant after the movie about how he was on the boat when the death happens, and if they’re setting it up as a sequel, they’re doing it wrong. (My husband was like: what’s wrong with you??)

Saw him speak at an industry conference in WV before he was elected. He was a smarmy, bloated gumbag who relied on turn of phrase and empty comments to get applause. I assumed he was running as a republican in the first place. Unsurprised by this but still grossed out that his timing is so poor. The people of WV are

Agreed. I was IMDBing one of the Bletchley Circle stars to see where I knew her from and this adaptation popped up. It’s excellent. 

Wish I hadn’t shaved this morning. Stubble would have added some extra zazz to the armpit portraits I’m thinking of taking and tweeting @SpeakerRyan.

I was recently diagnosed with a dairy allergy at the age of 40. It fucking blows. Partly because I love cheese more than I love most people, but largely because I can feel how annoying I am at every restaurant and most meals now. My husband tries to accommodate me but half the time I just end up shouting at him to

Longtime Richmond resident here, married to a UR alum (he hates the school now with the fire of one thousand suns). The local news isn't covering this at all, of course. The school has entirely too much pull, especially the athletics department. Hopefully the national exposure will finally force some change.

For anyone who said no, read this statement from our local SPCA then reassess your answer:

“We met a woman who loves Tim Kaine. It was odd, and exciting.”

Hi. Now you’ve met two.

I feel you. Seventeen years now, writing for the financial, manufacturing, and now engineering industries. I will say that doing something so boring does make everything else I do in my life that much more magical. As boring as it is, though, I’d never trade it to write about shitty famous people.

It’s a hideous dress, as are a lot of their current dresses and shirts. Unfortunately, right now I could say that about almost every store. This ruffles business has to stop.

Thank you. I’m in a rather intense relationship with skyr (and skyr smoothies!) these days, thanks to a malicious bout of TMJ. I fear the day when it wears out its psychological welcome and I have to move on to rice pudding.

Has been on a low-carb, calorie restricted diet since November. Is 100% resentful 100% of the time.

Hmmm. I daresay this is accurate. She does gobble a lot.

This timeline information has made me feel better about my upcoming (already paid for) trip to Central America. The news is all about El Salvador’s TWO YEAR policy, which kinda freaked me out about being an unwitting carrier and bringing it back. I’ve no intention of being pregnant, and I live in a zone where we get

Same, as far as the friends go. I am not from a huggy family and grew up in a part of the country where personal space bubbles are rather large. Then I moved south, and my friends WILL NOT STOP hugging me. I make it clear that I hate it, and now they a) think it’s funny and do it more, and b) love to talk to anyone

It hurts my brain that this sort of thing still happens in Richmond. The city itself is liberal and accepting and awesome (but then again, I avoid nearly all of the religious elements of the area, which is extremely easy to do). I’m glad it worked out OK for you, and although I am no longer religious, it’s awesome

Some of us tried to get an IUD, went through the EXTREMELY AWFUL pre-install step of having our cervix measured, and then discovered that our cervix is too dainty (short) to get an IUD. I can’t overstate how god-awful the pain was. Crampy pain, but like 1 million times more painful. Even if they came out with a wee

We’re planning to visit next year, and we decided to take the train there and save our hiking for a less-touristy site nearby (for which the road is not quite built, so it will soon be a tourist hole too). We’ve heard the trail to MP is just gross at this point.

Katy rides the luxury Machu Picchu train in nylons and then her minions carry her the rest of the way.

Am on call for circuit court jury duty from now til mid-November. Got the call today that I need to go in next week. I’m trying to decide how tastefully crazy I should appear so I don’t get picked and they send me home before lunch. Cat t-shirt? Knitted poncho? Glitter shoes?
