More educated decision if the child is in front of you? More like a much more emotional decision, not to mention the kid is already born at that point and infanticide is definitely not an option.

Could probably just use a Zippo to cremate it. Perhaps a box formerly containing tea bags for burial.

If I could do that, I totally would. Fuck you, hay fever!

This is why I’m strongly in favor of e-books. That, and if I fall asleep reading, I don’t lose my place and I can more easily prop up my device next to the bed and not drop it on my face.

I am pretty sure I had PPD. The nurse at the hospital told me I should talk to someone but never did it. I cried every day for the first 4-5 months. I slept almost as often as the baby. Looking back, he wasn’t a particularly difficult baby but I did not feel like I was doing anything right. This is honestly the…

I finally threw out the remainder of my bottle of Ralph that had to be at least a decade old. It was odd to smell it again after so long!

It’s actually pretty common anymore for divorce proceedings to include a bit about paying a percentage of college tuition. That wasn’t a thing when my parents split but I’ve known two other people within 5 years of me to have benefitted from such an arrangement.

I may have been more inclined to attend mass if I could watch a hot dude wearing basically just underwear playing Jesus.

I had it two months ago. I thought I had a really horrible flu. My husband was the first to realize that it was probably strep. I was down for the count for three days then by day 4 I was feeling 60%.

Yeah, not exactly itching for an invite to Easter... Especially since their preferred R candidate bowed out.

Their sizing is a bit off since they get products from several suppliers. My biggest beef is that so much of their clothing is Hand Wash, Line Dry. I have enough crap to line dry (tall lady dress pants, yo) so I don’t need to hand wash and line dry a fucking t-shirt. I finally ordered a dress for myself but have been…

Congrats! My mom was up for a federal job and the thing that prevented her from getting it was that another applicant’s security clearance stuff came back first. It certainly is a special sort of hell to deal with.

I have a friend who gets yeasties while on antibiotics. She was finishing up a round of meds as they went to the UK on a guided tour. She had to wait an extra day until they had enough free time (and in a “civilized” town) to buy monistat.

Re: having to pee every 15 min - the best thing about the epidural was getting cathed so I didn't have to climb out of bed and waddle to the bathroom all the damn time.

Coco has not only grown mentally and spiritually, but cup size-ly as well. Every photo I’ve seen of her on Tweet Beat makes her look painfully engorged.

Assuming that voter registration can be updated online, I don’t buy that a Jezebel commenter has that particular roadblock holding them back.

You couldn’t change your party ahead of time to vote in Dems’ primary? I was registered independent but switched to D to caucus for Bernie.

Being grateful would have been easy enough. Keeping the mouth in check would have been the sticking point for teenaged me.

I like the dress but there’s not much about it that makes it black tie, IMHO. I agree with you that the neckline does not elevate the dress for this type of event. But the blouse-y drape at the waist instead of a fitted bodice and the print makes it look too casual, also.

Gatorade and citrus-flavored Jello! My nose and throat burn just reading about those two thing getting upchucked!
