I live in CA. Born and raised my whole live. All 42 fucking years of my life on this planet have been spent in California and all I can do is plot how to get out. I should have left years ago but no. I stayed. Why? Because everyone said “OMG don’t leave CA! Are you crazy?” Now I’m 42, I have 4 kids in school and a…
I highly recommend the power of Craigslist. I know it’s changed since I did this a bit (this was 11 years ago) but CL posts also go viral on FB & Tw so this type of sleuthing may work even better now. If you want it to go viral you have to be funny... so be funny! Besides, it’s great therapy.
Well my son is now 12 so this was 11 years ago... however.. if I do a little digging in my files which look like an episode of Hoarders I may have a printed out copy that I kept for the reminder of a good time had by everyone except him. I know I printed out a copy and kept it with my child support file that looks…
My ex thought it was a good idea to move to another state and hide from child support. Since he had such a consistent history of cheating I thought it would be easy to track him down on Craigslist’s Missed Connections. Someone had to know him because he had penis and it did wander. A lot. He also loved to make sure…
I am self employed and charge $65 - $95 an hour. When I talk to other women in my profession they charge about the same. My business partner (also a woman) and I have tried to raise rates and suffered a stall in new clients. The men in my industry, also all self employed, charge and are paid $120-$190 an hour doing…
I can’t even begin to tell you how many women, in business meetings, have asked me who takes care of “all of those kids” while I work... ummm... their fucking dad because he made them too and he’s equally fucking capable of doing the same parenting shit as me. Duh. Then when I say “their father” which I hate even…
This is very true but McCann also knows they need her in the way that Don needed her and SCDP has needed her and used her to meet their ends. I question how much SCDP has valued her professionally, they use her to get places with clients that they can’t as men like the pantyhose, the cleaning products all the clients…
You have to remember though, she would earn four times HER salary not 4 times the salary of the job she actually does which men also do and make a shitload more doing. Her salary could very well quadruple but she still would make significantly less. Even if it was 2015.. she still would make significantly less than…
Last night’s scene with Peggy had me literally standing up on my bed yelling “YES!” because fucking YES! Because in 2015 women STILL are not given the space and freedom to move on and live the rest of their lives in the way men do and it doesn’t even fucking matter what choice she makes: abortion, adoption or single…
The beat to this song immediately hit my brain when I read this letter to the tooth fairy. I hope that bitch had her money.
Oh yeah, I reported it, had meetings about where school administrators all sat around looking like confused deer in headlights... then sent it to the district who said it was a school issue.. I yanked her out of the school and gave them the big fat middle finger after that. Morons.
My experience as an American Muslim woman who wears hijab is that most Americans do mix up burqa with hijab and think the are one in the same when in fact they are vastly different. Hijab comes in many many forms and is personal for every Muslim. Burqa is a political tool, is not in the Quran at all and has nothing to…
We started doing a similar thing but the truth is we also had major birthday party burn out. We have 4 kids, the party thing is super stressful then in 3rd grade our oldest son started really having a hard time with his anxiety... the end result ended up being the best thing we ever did: no birthday parties and our…
So that's where all my grandma's sheer curtains went. I was wondering.
Raekwon was really nice and funny as hell. I laughed so hard it hurt. He should have been a stand up comedian because he can tell some fantastic stories.
I absolutely believe it because I have hung out with several of them late into the night as well and they were very cool and totally respectful. We also talked politics and social justice. Yeah, it was a 420 friendly party, it was SF and there were a lot of Mission District burritos, chips and salsa involved. The…
Manatees are the most adorable animals on earth. Yes. MOST ADORABLE... more adorable than kittens. Yep. I said that and I am on Team Cat... until Team Manatee shows up.. then I’m on Team Manatee.
It looks more like Tommy Chong to me.. the pubes need braiding to be Willie.
My business partner and I are constantly introduced and welcomed in business meetings at “The *insert company name* girls” or some variation of the name of our business with word “girls” attached to it. We own the damn business. We are 42 and 45 years old. We kick our male counterparts asses in our line of work which…
