I have weekly calls with people that extend past normal business hours and everyone is always surprised when they call me at quarter to seven and my 2yo is yelling “I want a graham cracker! I have poops! Who are you talking to? Can I talk?” At least once a month someone says “don’t you have a person to watch your…

I had people suggest that if I was a stress analysis engineer (instead of a project engineer) I could have worked at home with my baby. I can only guess these people have never met a real life toddler. You can hardly sort laundry with a one year old, let alone do detailed computer analysis of high pressure steam…

NEVER FORGET

And I say England’s greatest Prime Minister was Lord Palmerston!!!

That is the most British name for a cat ever. I love it.

That’s actually pretty terrifying, and to think this woman has only reached out to friends and fucking Dear Abby makes it even sadder.

“He had made no secret that he wanted sex with you”

She told her to tell a counselor at school but didn’t tell her that school counselors are mandatory reporters.

What part of. “Stop, it hurts,” constitutes a breakdown in communication? And this whole, both parties made mistakes bullshit is sickening. This rapist doesn’t need a stern talk from his parents outside of, “when a girl\woman says no and, stop, you’re hurting me, take your fucking hands off of her and take some time…

Um, he invited her over to study and then drove her to an isolated area? Yeah, that’s not predatory at all! Just a communication problem. smgdh

I told two of my close friends about what happened. One said he had essentially raped me. The other said it doesn’t count as rape because even though I said it hurt, I didn’t say it forcefully enough.

A perfect example, ladies and gentlemen, of why “yes means yes” has to be taught alongside “no means no.” Poor woman ):

To cover her back privates?

But I bet you never looked at Paula Deen and thought “Damn; I can see her front privates.”

Pony Express. Because of the rider. (For a fair price they’ll reenact the message)

I sext via Western Union telegrams. The delayed gratification really keeps it hot!

You need to step up your game & get with the times. All the hot action is in telegraphs now.

I sext the old-fashioned way. Carrier pigeon and tiny daguerreotypes.

Or when D.C. is projected to get more than 1/8th of an inch of snow.

I really like Jennifer Crusie’s books. They’re funny, her characters are adults and sometimes the sex is realistically awkward!
