I stopped reading Judy Blume after eagerly buying the hardback version of her first book in years—Just As Long As We're Together. The entire book lead up to the main character getting her period. I was 11 and did not want my period. I did not understand why any girl wanted her period, and I had known what it was since

Its down. It better not be down forever.

The movie was absolute forgettable garbage. The fact it because a solid hit shocked me. And while Jolie's too-thin body could still left heavy weapons, it wasn't too believable that she could do it while scaling buildings.

My mother buys a Star and a People every week and makes sure to mutter something about how they're "for her mother." When I'm with her, she acknowledges how ridiculous this is and follows it up with "funny, mom's been dead for 12 years, but I'm still buying them for her."

As a former swimmer, freestyle sprinting is somewhat worlds away from other events. They do not need to put in the same amounts of yardage, and begin their tapers arounds two months before their teammates. Sprinters are people who have the natural ability to swim really fast for very short distances. Even at the

Of all the improbably beautiful actresses out there, Charlize Theron has never failed to impress. She's everything Cameron Diaz and Gwyneth Paltrow try to be [in interviews] — all without trying. I would smoke from an apple bong with her any time.

I think people confuse brogrammer with "dudes who are just into startup culture" and appoint themselves experts on things like "crushing content." I've never come into contact with a brogrammer, but the other ones are alive and well and in every city's tech scene. They're usually in "biz dev."

Back when Discovery Times was a channel, they had a fantastic hour-long doc about this school. If you can find it somewhere, definitely check it out. At the time it was filmed, over half the student body had been home schooled.

Is iJustine clamoring for a bottle yet?

Still have a copy of "The Marriage Plot" which I have yet to read, but I've loved Eugenides' previous work. Weiner, on the other hand, escapes me. Someone once lent me a copy of "Good In Bed" and I found to be typical chick lit crap, so I never felt compelled to pick up any of her other novels. As far as

Agreed. He had just had it with Pete being a prick. Never believed that anyone thought Lane was gay, and he was quite smitten with his "Chocolate Bunny" last season.

What happens when SCDP lands T-Mobile and Megan Draper goes from copywriter to spokeswoman.

OMG. I am ashamed. I know this. (My childhood cat was named APOLLO) That's what I get for doing too many things at once.

"Mad Men" has a knack for casting actresses at one point deemed "potential It Girls." Even Jessica Pare. And Talia Shire (John Slattery's real-life wife) and Embeth Daviditz. Larissa Oylenik. Cara Buono. And in the men...Stan Rizzo is played by Jay Ferguson, who graced the pages of "Bop!" for like 5 minutes as a teen.

Well, the item about Kristen Wiig leaving "SNL" better be true!

Yup. I admit it. I only really watched that movie so I could see Jennifer Lopez go bye-bye.

And Lupe Ontiveros played Eva Longoria's stereotypical Hispanic mother-in-law on "Desperate Housewives."

In reference to the MJ map: That's not Missouri, it's Arkansas. It's also not Colorado but Wyoming.

Looking forward to the day when pop stars are paid tribute or homage to in episodes of "Glee" and/or with the cooperation of Gwyneth Paltrow.

As soon as I clicked on this post, I scanned the comments to find it. Because you can't have an old ladies and condoms post without it.
