I just really, really respect the cold hearted meanness of this comment.
35. Make you my Woman Crush Wednesday on Instagram every Wednesday, lol.
I received two ounces of Creme de la Mer for Christmas last year, and my three year old used it to "paint" his body and face because it smelled good.
My in-laws, yes.
I have that on my Kindle, a lot of people say it is one of the best books about the writing experience. Stephen King helped me through my tormented childhood and adolescence, and has written some of my favourite books, so I will forever be grateful, but he can write some real shit too, but I still find it comforting…
I only read fiction, mostly sci-fi, fantasy and horror, but I have a love for funny women who write, and thoroughly enjoyed books by Tina Fay, Carrie Fisher, Mindy Kaling and Sarah Silverman, among others, so I was hoping this would fall into the same category.
Oh no, that is too bad. I am just finishing up Stephen King's "Mr. Mercedes" right now, and it may be the most terrible, awful book I have read in a long time (but I can't ever not finish a book, I am compelled by demonic book-finishing forces), so maybe I will read the new Margaret Atwood before the Lena Dunham to…
It's funny, when I went back to university as a mature student, I was taking Culture and Technology studies, and they really wanted us to learn to write like this, "blog-style", to have a friendly, relatable, conversational tone. I think because (young-ish) people are so used to getting their information in this way,…
I love reading book reviews almost as much as reading books (it is so difficult to do well), and this was a good one, thanks! I will read this book. I really liked Girls, and I think Lena Dunham is pretty talented, which, although I am relatively new to these Gawker sites, does not seem to be popular opinion from what…
I have the same type of acne, my skin is super reactive to stress and hormones. The main thing is to leave it alone, since it will never be pop-able. You think it will, but it just makes it a million times worse, because these fuckers are deep. I use Cetaphil face wash, a Clarisonic (expensive but worth it, I got one…
I took my dogs to the groomer once, and they had lice. LICE. They called me to come get them, since it spreads so fast. The lice lay eggs all over your house, especially in old houses with hard wood floors like ours. Anyway, the groomer told me I had to spray pesticides all over the house, but I was 7 months pregnant…
While the clinic should be held responsible, I feel like it's the shitty town they reside in that should be sued.
I really wish she had made the choice to just accept the results (healthy baby), rather than proceeding with legal action. I think the clinic made a huge error, but when a child is involved, sometimes you just need to suck it up and move on, so the kid never knows he or she has the word "mistake" associated with his…
There are many wonderful places for me to take my kids, and there are a few places they don't belong, for their own sake as well as mine and others. They are far happier with a babysitter, running around and painting pictures and dipping grilled cheese sandwiches in ketchup than being told to be quiet and stay still…
I went on a copper mine tour once (the closest I will ever come to a Paris fashion show), and there was a part when you climb into an old mining cart and get pulled through this cold, dank, super loud old mining shaft, and these parents behind us decided this would be a great experience for their newborn child, even…
Stop ruining my joke with logical solutions! (Just kidding, that is very helpful, in that I can have my own filled to the brim with British mysteries.)
This reminds me of being at a reasonably fancy restaurant with my granny, where she asked the waiter for a specific type of wine. "I've never heard of that wine before", he responded, and she replied, "Strange, I have a box of it at home right now, you should try it." She also would ask me (as a child) to pour her a…
I just know that, in the future at some point, this is going to show up on the "Recently Watched" section of our Netflix, in amongst the Clifford the Big Red Dogs and Breaking Bads, and I am going to have to reconsider my marriage all over again.
Ha ha, I was the same with Breaking Bad. My husband has been forcing me to watch it on Netflix (and there is nothing else on), but I just getting into it now that I have just finished season 3 and started 4. I couldn't watch Rectify yet because I was watching The Leftovers and that was too much sadness to watch all at…
