Oh, I did date someone in the Russian mob... but that wasn’t the murder-for-hire dude. He just roughed folks up. Pretty mundane.

It’s actually surprisingly mundane. He was working in Liberia at the time of the coup, decades ago (1980?). It was a pretty violent country at the time, so he was one of many who did what they had to do, just to survive. A time of killing or being killed, as he described it. Kind of sad, actually. He was a pretty…
....Maybe we are the same person??? Or did we fall for the same guys???
About half the scenarios listed actually happened to me.
Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus.
Welp, that is a real shitty way to find out otherwise great boyfriend isn’t all that.
Three is a good number for grad school. Why? Because if you know what it is you want to do in life, and you know the kind of institution in which you will flourish, all other choices will automatically fall by the wayside.
When it comes to sweets, careful what you wish for! I was a TOTAL chocoholic in my early 30’s, and the minute I hit 35, I got irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). Boom! Incurable stomach issues that only are treatable with lifestyle change. Instantly any sweets at all cause horrible stomach cramps and intestinal issues.…
You DO realize she looks that great due to liposuction and breast implants, right? (FWIW—it is no secret, she openly admitted to both in an interview a few years back).
It DOESN’T MATTER how smart you think you are when you buy your insurance. I am here to tell you, no matter what you choose, if you get severely sick, you insurance WILL fuck you over, and will actively find ways to charge you more or deny you coverage. I learned it the hard way. I got severely sick with a…
My BF was severely concussed after a fall while dancing (dance can be pretty brutal a sport too!). He was unconscious for about a minute. After, he kept asking me the same questions over and over, for days, like the guy in Memento. We would be talking on the phone, and he would ask if I had eaten dinner yet, then 5…
I only wish physician specialists were as competent as some NP’s I have seen! Unfortunately, when you have a very serious condition, you are stuck trotting from one MD specialist to another—I was misdiagnosed by not one, not two, but SIX neurological specialists (including one in the ER) for a very serious condition.…
My sister worked at a blood donation center in San Francisco. Gay men donated blood ALL THE TIME. How? They lied on the screening test, and the staff (many of whom were GLBT) looked the other way. Why? Because it is a stupid rule, and there was a blood shortage. This happened over 15 years ago. No one is conducting a…
“After being verbally, physically abused and raped, I dated him for two more months. It’s not simple.”
No separated at birth. Miss Colombia had a bit of plastic surgery to look the way she does now.
Here is a great article about muzzles, and has some suggestions for training with muzzles to acclimate you pet to them. There is also a discussion of the benefits and draw-backs of various muzzle choices. You will probably have to try a couple different ones to see which you dog can tolerate best. I think the key is…
I got a heated blanket (there is no heat or insulation in the walls of the apartment and it is freezing cold on the West coast this year), and prescription reading glasses to replace my broken-and-glued-together ones. And I am snug under my blanket with glasses so I can see my books and the computer screen, and I…
I’m really really sorry. I had a pet that was un-trainable when it came to human interaction. She would erratically revert to fear-based behavior when stressed. It sucks when an otherwise awesome pet has a rally deeply ingrained fear-habit of biting when feeling overwhelmed by a situation. It is a natural response,…
Just say thank you for all the gifts.
