Wow- I am impressed by all the veggies and nutritional variety in the "healthy meals". Granted, they are pretty meat heavy, but as a non-vegetarian I find them quite tempting!

I so want to train my wiener dog to do this. He would have a blast, and I'd get money or a delicious truffle omelet. Mmm...

I've been thinking about Native American/American Indian culture appropriation ever since I got to go meet with some NA people who work with the local population. I got them to come do an excellent presentation about cultural sensitivity at my office.

Thank you Tim for recognizing petite women! I've been so frustrated at how many stores are cutting back on their petites. Most of what is left is pretty frumpy, which is very difficult for an hourglass shaped short girl.
I've resorted to sewing myself a wardrobe of A-line skirts (with huge but darts to accommodate my…

There was an article a month or so back featuring some cute heels from the 60s. I was shocked to see in the comments some rants against women who wear ballet flats and Mary Janes. Well, THIS is why I generally wear ballet flats and Mary Janes, unless I'm wearing my stylish yet very comfortable low-heel knee high…

Hmm... except according to the testimony at trail, Trayvon was the one who thought he was being pursued by a rapist.

These are great. The guys are all adorable, mainly because they look they're game for this and having fun. It could be a cool trend.

Lord of the Douchbags!

These shows still creep me out. They send the message to kids that everyone is sexually active in high school. There are plenty of kids who graduate virgins and aren't devout Christians, thank you!

catsloveart: I am so sorry about your flare! That's a huge change. Weight loss like you have can lead to serious malnutrition. I've been hospitalized in the past for serious malabsorption issues, and ended up on a PICC line (IV feeding, it's like Ensure dumped directly into your bloodstream). I am also short…

My parents' lab-rottie mix became obsessed with a neighbor's lamb they brought into their house to bottle feed. She licked it clean and she would snuggle with it an night to keep it warm. She took care of it for several weeks until the lamb became too frisky and annoying to her.

What a fabulous test! I've gotten the same reaction when mentioning that I'm a lawyer. If a guy's eyes go wide and he says, "Really, how cool!" you know he's potentially worth a few minutes conversation.

Suzanne is great, and I can't wait until they do an episode with her backstory. (They seem to cover one person per episode.)

I meet almost all his criteria (I'm only a size 0 because I'm really short), but I am still offended by his list.

I did this for friends of mine who were on this site. They are both academics so they'd be living apart after the honeymoon. That we could put something towards their brief time together felt nice.

I don't think it's the providers (ie. docs and nurses) who are pushing this. It's the company making them. They get higher offers from these creepy private companies and sell out (literally!). Then when the local NICU or geriatric center calls to reorder, they are told they are sold out. Bad Pharma!

Wow- this is sickening. I'm usually not a "think of the little babies!" person, but once a child is born, it needs access to all the health care it needs so it can have a normal, healthy development and grow into a fully developed, healthy adult. That children are dying so that wealthy alcoholics can have hangover…

I'm an advocate for disabled children, if your brother is a special ed teacher, in the Bronx or anywhere, he IS doing great things! It takes a lot of intelligence (and patience) to work with special needs kids. Many of them are also smart, and it takes a highly intelligent teacher to see that. Every time one of his…

Thank you! I was waiting for the "Call the Midwife" reference!

Lol- looks like a sundress/mumu, a cute one though, I will give you that. I love that print!
