This was pretty much my whole high school experience, and I blame that experience for me never going to college, by my junior year I was just bored.

My dad did a lot of this, specifically with math since he's a high school math teacher. My senior year my calculus teacher actually took me aside and asked me to stop coming to class because my input was disruptive, I spent the rest of the year taking an early lunch at Taco Bell, now that was some good learnin!
I'm usually hungover on Mondays, I dress my best on Tuesday, by Thursday I've stopped caring.
I do this too. My husband goes to dinner with his friends on Friday night so I can have some wine and Law & Order time, and it is now something I really look forward to.
I really wish we had eloped. I hate being the center of attention and spent my whole wedding filled with anxiety and in a daze. If you're concerned for the parents maybe have a quick court house ceremony and a nice dinner afterwards, win-win?!
I lied about having a dentist appointment so I could lay in bed and read Jezebel, don't feel guilty, mental health days are important!!!
Most jobs have some sort of Employment Agreement, it might not have been a contract per se but signing a non-compete is pretty standard. How is her current job handling the matter? Did she receive anything in writing or has there just been verbal directions to quit her part-time job?
My bosses boss once said in a casual conversation that she doesn't believe in global warming, and she's a patent attorney with a scientific background. My reaction, smile and nod, and quickly change the conversation. I work in an extremely conservative environment and the shit I hear people say makes me want to run…
He's honest, and he doesn't even realize how amazing his sincerity is. Its why I adore him.
Try going to the hospital when you have amazingly awesome insurance, once they realized I worked for a pharma company and was uber-covered they spent 3 horrible days doing unnecessary tests on my husband essentially making him worse. I finally screamed at enough people and they discharged him! I never want to go back…
I've had several friends "audition" for American Idol and The Voice. It's all just one giant casting call, they aren't looking for the most talented, they are looking for people to fill roles for television.
I recommend Old Navy: collared shirt $15-20; khakis $15-20 ($10-15 each if you go to an outlet or wait for one of their ridiculous sales)
I'm sorry you didn't have the resources you needed growing up, but you're an adult now, and the point of the article is that women are held to different standards and more scrutinized than men. When I interviewed at my first office job my mom took me to 4 different Goodwills and a Catholic thrift shop to find what I…
I had a really good discussion with a girlfriend last night related to this. She made the observation that there a lot (in comparison) of women in our office whose husbands are SAHD. I think this situation would really work for her but shes concerned about her current boyfriend. I do think her current BF is sort…
"stiletto" just means a skinny heel, I have a ton of professional shoes that are considered stiletto and I've never been to "a club".
Seriously? Look harder. I suggest outlets, close-out sales, and some hard-core googling. I have faith you can find a nice suit that fits.
Nope!
I got one for men, unless you want to look like a kid playing dress-up pay the extra money and get a suit that FITS!!! That means the jacket too!
Because mandatory vaccinations are a severely scary slippery slope, we still have freedoms in this country even if you don't agree with them. While I would absolutely choose to vaccine my kids, my husband and I have chosen not to get flu shots since they introduced H1N1 and a few years ago my husband almost had to…
Get the dog home and wash the shit out of it with high dollar shampoo, you will probably be fine. They pick up lots of dander at the shelter and its highly possible that once he calms down and is CLEAN you will be fine. I got super itchy and dry irritated eyes just visiting the shelter when we got our dog. I hope it…
