How Erin Destroys Reality

I will probably always remember the knowing glance I shared with a remarkably beautiful woman, probably in her early eighties, I would guess, on the train in Boston when I was maybe twenty or so. She was powdering her face on the way to somewhere... I was struck by her beauty, and she looked back at me, as if to say,…

I was being entirely insane about it the other day and complaining about it to my boyfriend who promptly (TMI time) stuck his finger in my triangle-gap-thingy and…

"but you get somuch pushback here for even pointing out that there are health issues associated with being significantly overweight, but no pushback in the other direction."

"If possible" - basically it's a "bring your dog to work day" for anyone that happens to have a Pug/Pom or Bulldog. If she's said doxie, I'd have brought mine in a heartbeat.
