I never fit into my mom's wedding dress. She was less than 100lbs when she got married and even though I was thin when I was young, her ribcage was tiny. Like I could fit into the prom dress with the stretchy empire bodice, but nothing that required anything less than a 36inch bra band.

I also rarely can drink anything as large as 20 oz, especially if it's hot because it gets cold before I'm halfway done.

Welp, young Nick Offerman looks disturbingly like the thin version of my good friend. I did not realize this until now and it's freaking me out a bit.

Some pizza needs a fork. It's a fact. Especially my homemade pizza with where I haven't figured out the topping to crust ratio and it's structurally unsound and casseroles pretending to be pizza (I'm looking at you Chicago).

My husband is one of those guys who says "eat less, move more" but he's also one of those guys who doesn't gain weight easily and looses what he does gain quickly. For me, yes, at the basic level, it is eat less move more, but I have to eat so much less and move so much more than he ever has had to. And I don't even…

If you see the full picture, at least it's not a mermaid dress, which at least is something different.

Mine did too and I was always so disappointed that I'd never get one because I had had chicken pox as an infant (and was apparently super super sick and so covered in the pox that I looked like a giant one). By the time the vaccine was available, my siblings and I had already had the chicken pox.

My GP recommended going to one because I used to have insane tension headaches. The chiropractor was able to pin point the origin of said headaches and show me what to do to relieve it, which actually helps. However, I call shenanigans on people who claim they help with things that aren't muscle or joint related (my…

The kids in school used to have a running debate as to whether scarlet fever and scarletina were different illnesses.

Disneyland is in California, Disneyworld is in Florida. I respect your lack of desire to go to either, just remember, this isn't Florida (for once).

I've wondered about this too. I know a lot of adults are really bad about making sure their vaccines are up to date, and honestly, until recently, very few adults were concerned about getting measles because there was enough herd immunity to protect them. The vaccination schedule I saw most recently recommended adults…

My mom had fucked up eye surgery, so now whenever she goes to the eye doctor she gets asked if a group of med students can come in to watch her exam (she always says yes, because baby doctors gots to learn). So basically, what Chuck here is saying is that an eye exam requires more permission for viewing than an…

Tie bars are not expensive! No excuses!

Right? 80% of the reason I never even considered going into medicine is because anything that comes out of the human body is icky and I'm squeamish. I'm also pretty convinced that watching someone have their appendix out would be way more traumatizing than an early abortion. Also that childbirth itself would probably…

Right? I thought one of the standard "look nice and not over done" rules was that you did ONE statement piece of jewelry, or at least either a necklace or earrings statement, but not both. There is such a thing as overkill with jewelry, especially if you're not attending a white tie affair.

We had one! I mean, not specifically for dressing, but it was called "professional practice" and we totally got a handout on appropriate work place attire and all that jazz.

And yet, I've seen so much of it at weddings this year.

Well, clearly that for those of us whose nipples point down or not to whatever ideal position they're supposed to. Also wow, I wasn't alive in the 70s so never realized that nipples were so in style.

As much as I thin a corset would make my figure look great- here's to living in an era where corsets and girdles aren't mandatory.
