I’m just going to assume that Banks follows the same rule as everyone else on the Breaking Bad crew -- I spent a week on the set with them while S3 was shooting (even ended up as an extra in a scene, because the AD thought I was bored! lol no just really tired, but it was fun!) -- which is that everyone involved in…

Oh man, I don’t even know where to start anymore, though I am of course way too late to this post for it to really matter. I used to work at a bookshop with a very high celeb clientele percentage for a few years when I first moved to LA; I now work in a mom & pop bookshop that has a lot of them for our…

Like the culinary world in NYC isn’t just as cruel and cutthroat as the fashion world? Puh-lease. If Vinny wanted to get anywhere in that insanely competitive field, he’d be pulling hours arguably far more merciless than Andy’s, dealing with bosses just as toxic. Instead of using that relationship to reflect Andy’s…

Very late to this post, but I’m just happy to see love for Strange Days anywhere. I feel like it’s largely forgotten these days, but I really love it, and I think it ended up being a far more prescient neo-futuristic film about where we might end up as a society (it was a bit early in its timing at the turn of the…

She was one of my most delightful regular customers at my old job, I just love her so much.

I don’t smoke, fortunately, so that’s all good! Thank you though, again, for all the info on this, it really is super helpful.

Gah, that’s terrible! I’m so sorry you went through all that.

I’ll look into it, thank you!

Good to know, thank you! My weight lifting days are long behind me -- I did it for a few years as a teen to build up weight, which I needed to do badly at the time -- and these days I’m 6' and tend to oscillate between 130-140lbs. I’ll definitely be sure to bring up the weight issue though with the gyno when I ask…

Thank you for the feedback! Hearing from anyone who has (or has had) one is very helpful.

I haven’t, and a quick Google search seems to show a few of them (and at least one with what appears to be a... vacuum hose-like attachment? what?). I am curious, though! Why do you think it might be a better choice/what do you like about it?

The pillow was too perfect to pass up! I just love that he immediately sniffed it intensely for several minutes, then plopped down right in front of it, like, “My spot.”

All very helpful input, thank you! It’s so interesting hearing about the varied period/spotting reactions post implantation, as the coworker who just got hers had literally the opposite thing happen; she was on day two of her period at the time (which apparently they recommend, if possible), and it immediately…

Thank you so much for the feedback!

Thanks for the input! I definitely can’t do an IUD (pain isn’t the only reason, though literally everyone I know seems to have horribly painful insertions with theirs), it’s more a hereditary hormonal issue, but I appreciate it all the same!

That’s so cool they participate in that!

This comment just reminded me that just about all my storage problems in my small half-bathroom could be pretty easily fixed by having a couple of my old Caboodles around.

It’s rough! It can be such a tough feeling to shake, too.

Amazingly, even though I’ve been patronizing other locations of Kinokuniya ever since I still lived in San Diego, I didn’t even think to put it on my (insanely long, lmao) NY bookstores list for my trip this past April! Must amend that now for the next trip. I used to get my comic-making pens through them back when I…

D’aw, thank you! I’m always glad to hear that.
