Ugh, I work with a woman who never fails to make an asinine comment on my lunch choices. She'll lean way over my plate, make a scrunched up face and loudly say EWWWW! What is that? and point. Like a child. I always answer politely - shrimp with pasta, black beans and rice, tofu salad - but it irritates the hell…

I made some simple ground rules for sharing pics of my kiddo. I post two pics every Tuesday (The T——— Two for Tuesday!) which I have calculated is enough to keep my family happy and in the loop, but not enough to be obnoxious to everyone else. Nothing gross, revealing, embarrassing or shameful allowed, just cute…

Work in a bookstore, if such things exist in your area. The most awesome, amazing and diverse group of people I have ever had the pleasure to know always seem to work there (a jerk or two aside, of course).

Outrage aside, I kind of want one. Make a cool paperweight.

There was a hoarder on Buried Alive who really reminded me of Farrah. She had the same bizarre speech inflections and a similar kind of disconnect and delusion in her reasoning. I had to laugh when the hoarder brought her good friend Ron Jeremy over to her apartment, and then became insulted and angry when he gently…

I just chopped off my long hair on Tuesday - one of those infamous I'll just get it trimmed things that turned into CHOP IT OFF IT'S TOO HAWWWT! And so the annual tradition continues.

What? I'm sorry I was over there. Did you just say you were a fast cook? That's it? Are we to believe that boiling water soaks into (noodles) faster in your kitchen than any place on the face of the earth?

I really needed this this morning! And is there a big demand for crocheted kitten-rehab-recovery costumes? I'd be happy to whip some up :)

Yes, yes and yes! I remember watching this with my then BF (we're married now, and have an 11 month old kiddo) and we kind of looked at each other in silent mutual acknowledgment of this scary reality. I immediately jumped to the comments to make sure someone posted this.

Then my job is done :)

One of life's greatest pleasures is fresh, warm Italian bread, torn into chunks and dipped into a nice olive oil. Add minced garlic, a few shakes of pepper and salt and you have no-fuss dinner on a hot summer night. It is, and always shall be, delicious.

My husband and I just attended a wedding and gave $100 to the lovely bride and groom. It wasn't easy to do, financially, and if we could have afforded to give more, we certainly would. The timing of this article made me take a deep breath because I thought that $100 was a rather standard gift amount. This…

Oh Sassy! I'll never forget when my issue came two months late. And looked....different. I knew for certain that something had gone terribly, terribly wrong when I realized the poetry page had been omitted in favor of dieting advice. :(

I am a small person. When I say 'small', I mean it to describe everything about me: I'm short, small structured, teensy boobs, no butt, and so on. I have always liked my body and felt happy with it, but I have noticed that people seem to feel free to comment on my physical appearance. I would never go up to someone…

Thank you for this article, and for the feedback and stories from everyone. Driving is a touchy subject in our family. I drive because I have to. It has always been an uncomfortable struggle for me and I still refuse to get on highways or freeways. I sometimes confuse left and right (only when driving, oddly) and…

Your post makes me smile because I remember my parents giving me a copy of the Beatles Help! album (among other record duplicates from their combined collections) to spin on my Fisherprice record player. I used to have my stuffed animals and ponies enact long, complicated plays based on those records.

How completely adorable! On a semi-related-ish note, I used to sing my own version of "Don't Put Me Down" to my newborn son every time he would bawl when I had the nerve to put him in his bassinet.

I work in a chiropractic office....front desk stuff. Fascinating job!
