I thought of a few more:

Stacy looks pretty good to me after recently having a kid - sure she's had work done but who hasn't in hollywood - she's 38 - I know a lot of people younger than her that look worse with no kids and have the $$$ to look better (or are just too lazy to work out).

Because he is another actor and a comedian. Add to that he became available after breaking up with January Jones (another beautiful and decent actress). Makes perfect sense to me.

I turn windows update off - my family never does the updates anyway so whats the point. I check on my own PC's regularly and manually do updates - this results in a significantly faster start up time and internet connection after logging into windows.

"Realistically I won't have the "perfect day" any time soon"

After reading an article on LH some time ago about grocery store coffee, I am stuck on Eight O' Clock Original beans - it came out on top on taste testes and I agree with that assessment. I have since switched to a burr grinder and have added a water filtration system to my home (for other reasons than just my…

#11 - Use Linux instead of Windows XP for better security.

When you can afford it - I wish I had bought something years ago instead of renting. I was unaware of how easy the process can be if you get in the know. I know buying isn't the right fit for everyone, but paying thousands every year in rent and having nothing to show for it sucks.

Do you have at least 6 months of living expenses in your emergency fund? If not, put it in there. Aside from that, any time I have a small windfall I always try to do an act of kindness with a little bit of it for the karma / pay it forward idea.

I use a drip coffee maker, but I never do entire pots - usually 2-3 cups in the AM. I currently have a Krups blade grinder that has been a champ for many years - I assume the blades are way worn out. I also have rarely used french press and old school stove top espresso maker (my in laws are 100% sicilian its all…

Care Credit pretty much saved my cat's life last year - without it I wouldn't have been able to fork over the $1600 for his care. The account I got was no interest for up to 6 months (min. $200 charge) as long as you pay it back on schedule.

Can someone recommend a burr grinder from Amazon? I have Prime and my blade grinder has seen better days...

I am sort of in this same situation. I am nearly debt free (my car is paid off this summer), but my other half has about 20k in credit card debt. We have mutually agreed to hold off on our wedding until this has been paid off. We're both in our 40's and don't plan to have kids (boat has passed) so we're both OK with…

I'm calling BS on the cranberry not helping UTI's. As long as it's true cranberry juice (not cocktail - the stuff that's 100% in the health foods aisle).

DO NOT go to the mall to buy your ring. Chain stores have way cheaper quality and they work off commission.

For me it is definitely the eyeglasses. I get my eyes checked every 2 years and told the eye Dr I buy my glasses online. She was more than willing to assist me with all the specs I needed (PD is a key measurement). I have been doing this for a few years and never had a problem. I buy several pairs and it's never over…

Hit the dollar store - done deal. As long as the expiration date is OK they work (I know from past experience).

As for the geeky hobbies, my fiance' didn't really get it until she got to know me a bit better. Once she became aware of how comics, cartoons, TV shows, etc. were such a part of my childhood and influenced my artistic ability (which led to acceptance to art school and a career in graphic design) - she started to get…

Where I work there are lots of offsite coworkers - some of which work from home part time and some full time (some in other states and some that rarely come to the office). While I can certainly understand the need and savings to have people work from home, it definitely comes with its challenges. Offsite workers…

Hahahaha! You need to write for insurance commercials - what you wrote sounds just like one!
