@bitchyolympian: No worries - also totally thought he was cast as D'artagnana.

@Lolabelle: Holla! Drum line girl here!

@TheRelaxerciser: I started this tradition earlier in the year - and already have girlfriends asking when the next one is!

Props for Betsy-Tacy! I too, would accost anyone with fangirl overload if I witnessed this.

Same bed, different comforter from Hubs. I can still be close, but feel like I have my own space - works for us.

@ShrikirtiRaven: Living in Dubai and seeing a lot of coworkers go to KSA, I know more about visas than I ever wanted to... :)

@ShrikirtiRaven: Unless you are a GCC resident, everyone needs a visa to enter KSA (a local company needs to invite you and they are given for 1, 3, or 6 months). If you are a single woman under 30 it is relatively impossible to get a visa.

We call mine the bionic cat. He loves eating hair ties and all things elastic. At one point, this required a pricey stomach surgery, but I wouldn't have it any other way.

@Imelda_the_Hun: I will truly and deeply miss the public toilets in malls of Dubai when I move. They are actually something to look forward to.

@Ms.Frost: I want to break out the Cactus Juice for this comment. :)

Our group of friends has borrowed the expression 'boop!' from Superbad. Boop means 'I love you' but it's the friendship version.

@melissa grey: I've written 9 novels being an EA - I wouldn't trade it for anything. :) (Oh, and reading Jezebel too!)

@PennyArcadia: I hosted one a month ago and my girlfriends are still talking about it! They can't wait to do one again in the fall.

I loved my ballroom dance class!! And for my film studies minor, I really enjoyed History of Animation (my film prof was geeking out by the time we got to Pixar).

@astridjane: I think Tilda might have a brother (twin?) in my Brendan - he approves Tilda's awesome belly style and is a rescue kitteh as well.

@threadofgrace: I live in Dubai now, and the abayas continue to have plenty of decoration. In public, women who choose to be covered still have many options to show / share their fashion sense. Outwardly, couture shines through usually in the form of bags, scarves, and jewelry.

@pumpkinjane: Yay!!!! I cannot wait to see a (bootleg) copy of this film and am anxiously waiting the fail.

I didn't realize what an American institution this was until making one at work one day. My multi-national colleagues were like, WTF is that?
