Holy shit. That is horrifying, and I'm so sorry you were treated that way.

I love Mellie now even more than I did before. Which was a lot.

Ughh, Quinn is just so annoying to me lately.

Isn't that his name?

Try joining MyFitnessPal! It's very common sense, and most of the people are very friendly and supportive :). Just stay away from the forums...they're usually just a circlejerk of paleo/crossfit/"strong is the new sexy" dudebros.

I worked in a place that genuinely did not have a "back room," and people just REFUSED TO BELIEVE THAT. If they kept insisting that I check for them, I would just go to the break room, check my phone, stand around for a minute, then head back and tell them we didn't have it.

I was actually 21, which seemed unheard of to me! That good old post-grad job search and a pregnancy scare....unfortunate combo, let me tell you! Yes, I definitely work much harder to keep myself sane and healthy during rough times, cuz I do NOT want to go through that again! Also, I'm sorry about your dog :( they are…

Just chiming in to say that shingles is the fucking worst.

Apparently she is my dad's second cousin or something?! I'm not kidding. He never felt like that was necessary to mention until, like, 2 weeks ago.

I love the name Harriet!

I LOVE FREYA, but it's my cousin's daughter's name, so I would feel weird using it for my own future child. Grr. I love all of your choices, though!

Oh, no doubt, she overacts almost every scene. She’s just so darn gorgeous! And she’s always dressed impeccably!

Guys, I'm halfway through season 2 of Scandal, and I CAN'T STOP WATCHING. Mostly because Kerry Washington is the most beautiful person I've ever seen. I'm mesmerized.

Just the right amount.

Did anyone see any clever costumes during Halloween festivities this weekend? The best one I saw was a dude dressed as the Pixar lamp. He even had bouncy things on his shoes and was hopping up and down the street. Amazing.

As much as it pains me to say this...what about Rose Tyler from Doctor Who? A beautiful shop assistant with no training of any kind, who still manages to save the day time after time, while also getting the Doctor to inexplicably fall in love with her.

What the everloving fuck. I'm in a weird state between hysterical laughter and rage. This is amazing.

So...my mom confided in me that she and my dad are having problems in their marriage, and are seeking counseling. (She only told me because I noticed my father acting bizarre during my last visit, and thought he was angry at me for some reason). I just...don't know what to think. I am pretty newly married myself, and…

I "officially" took my maiden name as my middle name, but it just so happens that my old middle name and my maiden name start with the same letter....so I just use the initial, and say it stands for both :P

I often feel the same way, and it is an entirely shitty way to feel. I changed my name for very simplistic reasons (basically, his name sounds better and is easier for people to spell), and I am quick to jump to my own defense when the topic comes up. It makes me feel like such a loser when friends and even my sister…
