I’m not much of a sweet tooth, actually, but I adore sausage, eggs, bacon, and toast.

Blech. Leftovers. But don’t most meals require cookware and cleanup?

I’m not going to skip a meal.  I love meals.

‘....why would I bother with that weird category of “breakfast” food items when I have perfectly good lunch food in the fridge?’

I thought we were all gate-checking on purpose, to avoid paying the checked baggage fee? Y’all are trying to avoid it? I’m beginning to see why people are so impatient to board the airplane. Personally, I want to board as late as possible, because I like to minimize the amount of time that I’m locked in an…

The unfortunate thing is that so many of the people most likely to need to retire early are the very people who cannot afford to. Take waiting tables, for example- that is very physically demanding. It would be very difficult to continue that work into your 70s, but also difficult to save for retirement while doing it.

Oh, oh! Read The Da Vinci Code if you haven’t and you need to get back into reading with something easy and fun. I swear, it goes so fast you feel like you could read it faster than you could watch the movie adaptation.

Also, dropping a book doesn’t mean it’s a bad book. It may just be timing. Sometimes we try books at the wrong time in our life, and they aren’t right for us. I have had many a mutual break-up with a book, and sometimes I later got back together with a book because I found myself in the right place for it.

When I was on maternity leave, I made sure to grab mass-market sized paperbacks that I could easily read with one hand while nursing her, and wouldn’t add much weight to my diaper bag. You can pick them up at Barnes and Noble for around $7.99, and you can get them at your local Goodwill (often pretty recent ones) for…

Watch Barry first. It is incredible, and the episodes are only 30 minutes.

The people who named the store Dress Barn are the ones who implied that their customers are barnyard animals.

Tyrion: Will you accept?

It’s for the best.

“blame them for the like 10-second fade to black meant as a TIME LAPSE, what is this, first-year film school?????”

I count those in the minus column.

I definitely agree with that. I’m more likely to head to Santa Barbara if I’m up for a three hour drive, but it is nice to get away regardless.

I do live by the beach, and whenever my friends say they are going to Palm Springs, all I can think is, “But why, though? We have pools and shopping and spas by the ocean, and you don’t have to be in the desert.”

I think “sexy action-at-a-distance” is just voyeurism. 

I dod not believe @__jumping.like.a.horse__is good at jumping like a horse, or she wouldn’t cut the landings out of her video.
