Honestly, I’ve never been ghosted romantically - but when one of my friendships end, one of us ends up doing this. I can’t tell if this is just how women in their twenties deal with platonic breakups or if it’s me, but it sucks, from both ends. Someone who’s been my friend for 15 years - since our first month of high…

Chain restaurants in Canada, especially the mid-scale ones like Moxie’s and Earl’s, are NOTORIOUS for this bullshit, though. What particularly surprises me is that Joey’s isn’t included in this report. (At the University of Calgary, I once took a History of Women in Canada course. The professor, making a point about…

RIGHT??? I don’t even work in a fancy office, just a nonprofit, but jeans are too casual and I prefer to look like an adult when I go into meetings with guys 20 years my senior and tell them they’re wrong. I feel like it should NOT be so difficult to find fashionable suiting separates at fricking J.Crew, the MECCA of…

Truth: The anticipation was worse than the actual surgery (I chose sedation and basically have no memory of it) and so far it is vaguely miserable but not as bad as it could be. I did overestimate my tolerance for eating only pudding/ice cream, and am having a pal bring me soup and eggs for scrambled eggs this…

I have nooooo problem with cropped pants... just not in December... and not when you ONLY carry pants that even moderately tall people (I’m 5’8”, so, not exactly supermodel height) can’t wear. But I do support shorter ladies having more options so thumbs up on that.

Tylenol w/ codeine, alternating with 400mg of Advil... so far it’s been bearable, but the freezing only completely wore off about two hours ago, so we’ll see how it goes from here. They did give me a TON of the codeine, so I can double up the dose if I really need to.

Seriously! I hate shopping online (because I’m too lazy to send things back if they don’t fit, and also shipping to or in Canada is a nightmare compared to the States), and if I’m buying, say, a $200 blazer, I want to know how it looks BEFORE I pay for it. But now when you go into a store, it’s, like, fifteen pairs of…

NO, THIS IS NOT WHY. The REASON is that you introduced a ton of new cropped pants in DECEMBER, forcing everyone with an inseam of greater than 28” to find somewhere else to buy work-appropriate pants, nevermind that ALL of your blouses, sweaters, tops, etc have been structured like weird, cropped boxes or ponchos. The…

I have no opinion on her music (except that I really like Weird Al’s parody of Fancy) but Iggy Azalea always looks AMAZING.

Is that Diana someone? Maybe? I feel like I remember her singing “Be Happy”.

Criticism from my boss at my last, shitty job: You’re TOO smart.

We're about the same - I'm 5'8", 150, and the same size range, except I work in a pretty conservative office (conservative in the sense that I feel awkward wearing jeans), so I have to up my game a LITTLE. Which means a lot of pawing through the sales racks at places like Loft, J.Crew, and Anthropologie, and there is…

Sizing inconsistency is the MOST annoying thing. Like, at Loft, I'm always an S or XS in shirts (as a 5'8" woman who is not skinny, this is weird but at least consistent), but pants? Oh hell no. I might be a 6... I might be an 8... I might be a 10... on one magical but unforgettably insane occasion, I was a size 4.…

I always wondered what my yoga instructors would look like when they snapped. This seems about right.

I actually just use their BB cream - technically a primer - pretty much all winter as foundation (I switch to a powder like Bare Minerals in the summer since it's so damn humid in Toronto). I find it a lot like their old Face & Body line (which used to be just face, and in smaller bottles) - light, natural coverage…

There is nothing I want more than Sheila's pants.

I went to one of those shows but my friends and I (late 20s women and a dude) were there for Robyn! Such a great show though. She is perf.

I love Kelly Clarkson so much. Her voice just makes me happy, whether it's on her poppy produced albums or American Idol MP3s I downloaded 10 years ago or that one album everyone but me hated - she is kind of perfect. And a good person, too, as far as I can tell, which makes me feel better about loving her.

Everything about Amanda Bynes makes me incredibly sad and I'm not (entirely) sure why. I hope she's okay. Is that weird from a 29-year-old woman who has never met her? Probably, but whatever.

That's fair. I was extremely sheltered in some weird ways and wasn't trying to... like... pass judgment? If that makes sense. I did find out many years later that she had been physically abused, and I probably reviewed this memory in that light (which doesn't make me right, just prone to poor logic). Anyway, no…
