Ugh, I read that....paragraph....and I <i>hear her voice</i>. *shudders*

Hey man, post-away. Thank you so much for taking the time to answer each one of my concerns. I appreciate the candid answers. As samarkand wrote in her response to me, pregnancy appears to be a 9 month exercise in loss of control. As a certified control freak, I'll have to come to terms with the fact that I won't…

<i>pregnancy is basically a 9 month exercise in loss of control</i>

That looks awesome! Ha, we'd turn our yard into a mini-prison. Thanks for the tip!

Jumping in on the convo because this article literally made me sob (the original WSJ article....and also, I have PMS). Anyway, it's not so much I have specific questions, but more like a list of things which absolutely terrify me:

He just got a basic doggy door: dog pushes in or out. Plastic cap for the inside for when the door is not in use. Who knew they could be so fancy?

Thanks for the feedback. Those are all good points. We put the dog door in when we were "dog-sitting" for another couple. My boyfriend and I were long-distance at the time, and he works full time. I will soon as well. So he didn't want a dog stuck inside his smallish house all day while he was at work.

Thank you for the information. I've never heard a kitten sound like that before, but never having actually owned a cat I wasn't sure.

Timely article! The BF and I went kitten-shopping this past weekend and were *thisclose* to filling out an application for an adorable black kitten (side query: are kittens supposed to wheeze? This one sounded like Darth Vader. Shelter volunteer was exceedingly unhelpful ["some kittens sound like that"]). Anyway,…

Seconded.

Well, if your marriage turned into a living hell it must be your fault. You aren't submitting enough. Remember, you were "created to be his helpmeet" so what you want really doesn't matter. He's the head of the household. You aren't "winning him without a word" by your "quite and gentle spirit." You must pray for…

Nothing sends me into a rage faster than this crap.

I thought it was staged, because I think the lyrics after the booing were to her "haters." I could be wrong, though.

Perhaps I should have been more specific in my original comment.

But....but....what about capitalism???

I can think of so many inappropriate things to do with these models. Like, hide them in random places for my boyfriend to find. Or a really disturbed Halloween costume.

I'm actually quite excited about the pit-stain article because, well, I'm a sweat-er. I'll definitely have to get some of that bluing stuff to try on my white button down dress shirts. I have a hard enough time finding proper button downs that fit my petite frame that aren't covered in ruffles or other "accents" and…

Tip: pop some aspirin about 30-45 min before you go. And sit on something cold afterwards. The first Brazillian is the worst, if you keep up with it regularly, it's not so bad.
