Can you give a little context to your comment? What was your hypothetical spouse's body language like when that was said? Was it different from the person's regular body language?

I like the TY KU Citrus Liqueur. It has 65 calories, 3.6 carbs, 0 pro, 0 fat per 1.5 oz. It's sweet but not too sweet.

Forgive yourself for coming off rude and argumentative. It happens. Try not to do it again. There are ups and downs in grad school/academic and in business/industry so get ready for them. Grad school in particular, and life in general, is about how much BS can you take. Try to hold on to your happy feelings, recognize…

School Psychologist. Thanks for the reply! I'm feeling a little less shady.

So...how bad is it if I crash a teacher job fair in the hope that I will meet a recruiter for another school related position? I will definitely play it off and pretend I came with a teacher friend but I'm wondering if the same people who recruit for teachers also recruit for the position I want too. Thoughts, ideas,…

I see your pain. There's research that says retention doesn't work and it really shouldn't be used (see the National Association of School Psychologists for more info). Those kids are a bit too old to be in the 8th grade. Perhaps it would have been better to place them in the higher grade that "best matches their age"…

Oh! I just bought some and though they were not expensive, I don't want them to break. I wonder if they would last if I sprayed them with hair spray when I first put them on my legs.

So I should stop taking my delicious gummy vitamins? :*(

Yeah, the finger thing freaked me out a bit because I kind of feel like I'm not celibate anymore because of that.

Keeping it simple and leaving out the unnecessary details. That's part of my new plan!

Not my problem...I need to undo my training. I'm too old to keep worrying about other people reactions. I am saving your hot and cold advice in my phone for when I need backup.

I definitely need that advice in multiple areas on my life! I am way too honest. I really need to figure out how far I want to go (if we ever go any further). He already hit my initial threshold when we were kissing on our second date and his finger found it's way down my pants and up my behind. Great feeling but, not…

I have sensitive skin (eczema, redness, occasional flaking and shininess on my nose and chin). I recommend using a tinted moisturizer/foundation with SPF (I mix the aqua smoother bb cream from covergirl with my 30 SPF face lotion) after I put on my revlon primer (it's the pink one and it makes my makeup go on smooth…

Thank you to everyone who responded to me this morning. I really need it.

Go! Go! Go! I'll also second Elle. Belle...if you're not feeling it a little while after you get there then exit gracefully.

Uggghhh! Sometimes I like some of the clothing the Kardashians come up with (or attached their name too) but they have ruined the site (dorothyperkins.com) with their items. Last year DP had such nice dresses and this year there are next to none. It's just tight Kardashian wear or prints that make me want to run away.

I agree with everything you wrote except I do not wonder how a person who has a daughter or grand-daughter can hit any women. It's easy to hit (you also noted we can choose how to respond), but I've noticed (just based on observation) that it's much easier to hit a black woman than almost anyone else.

What's up with the "this little girl" comment from SN? No need to go there with it.

The word that best fits is "policing." When the women make the comments about the natural hair, they are effectively policing the hair style/texture choices of other people. At the same time they may be in the process of trying (consciously or unconsciously) to police you. (If you ever find yourself not wearing your…

Right! Woe the day when I finally realized many people "in education" are not that interested in making anything better when it isn't their idea or won't pad their paychecks. Some cannot even admit when they are wrong. Gasp! Sounds like a bunch of other people I know....
