I do, too. They’re my favorite. I’d actually started to adopt another kitten (a peaches/white mix) when I looked up and made eye contact with Oliver in another cage. That was it. I asked to hold him, the end, and his paperwork has that other kitten’s name crossed out and his written over it (that kitten was adopted…

Fright Night is of my husband’s favorite movies! That’s not really my genre, but I thoroughly enjoyed it, and Yelchin was fantastic.

And by “I know,” I mean in a helpful way. Not a scoffing way.

Thank you so much-- I know I am not alone in grieving an irreplaceable pet. Here’s Oliver Squish. He wasn’t really a lap cat (sometimes he’d rest awkwardly on my upper chest/shoulder), but he always wanted to be near me and/or touching me. You can’t see it in this photo, but he’s got the cutest little fang on the…

I just had to put down my beloved Oliver Squish (he was 13) a few weeks ago after what appeared to be an aggressive cancer. I feel the same way about him and my Mittens the Great (1984-2000). The pain is physical and at times unbearable— I can feel a knot/pressure in my chest and I cry every day about Ollie, and I’m…

And I won’t reply to him either, but fuck yeah, I think women should be able to go jogging topless at 2am and not get raped. And yet they think WE’RE the idiots. Yikes.

Eeesh. I had not read that roundtable article before. 

Why is this so hard for rapist-defenders to accept. Nothing causes rape but RAPISTS. Sober people get raped. Drunk people get raped. People wearing sweats and a hoodie get raped. Elderly women sleeping in their own homes get raped. Fuck off forever to anyone who tries to imply or suggest the survivors in any way…

The weirdest part to you is her 4 whiskey shots? Not the way Brock’s parents shield him from any and all consequences?

Thanks! 

Do you have a preferred brand? 

I love BOTH of your shades! My aunt, as a born redhead, has hair like yours now. 

Here’s a shot of my color before..and after. Sigh.

I was like... “Am I dying my eyebrows.. LIGHTER.. on purpose?” I really  need to suck it up and get a darker eye pencil. Sometimes when I take photos in the sun you can barely see the brows and I look like a big white egg! 

My go-to is canned Progresso chicken noodle soup. It just hits the spot for me. As it’s almost done, I crush 3 cloves of raw garlic right into the warm soup, then add a healthy dose of green Tabasco sauce. Heaven. But I only like it when I’m sick! 

Same. And my eyebrows are still the light strawberry blonde of my youth, so people think I’m dying my eyebrows lighter (?!?!) while my darker AUBURN hair is how it’s always been. 

Yes! I was a redhead, with blonde highlights, until my late 30s, when my hair went auburn. I still have light eyelashes, tons of freckles, and the red highlights glisten in the sun in my auburn hair, so you can try to take away my redhead title, but I earned with through every awful year of elementary and middle…

Let me update: FEWER food hangups. 

I loved this, and was relieved it wasn’t like a ‘food hangups’ type of piece. “Oh, I love this food but it’s bad and I’m bad for eating it!” What an enjoyable piece to read. THANK YOU THANK YOU.

And yet NEVER the boys. NEVER the BOYS. Even as a kid I knew something was off, but I couldn’t quite articulate it then.
