Or believing that dying in the course of motherhood will get them brownie points in heaven. Even if the baby dies with them.

Shitty Einstein bagels. But he’s one of those coworkers that if there is free food you have to go before he does because he will take as much as he likes and then squirrel the rest away. We had a breakfast catered once and after he was done, he came in and took all the left over little bottles of OJ.

I once watched a co-worker eat three bagels with fully loaded cream cheese during one meeting. The meeting as an hour long.

I’m drinking tea here!! I had to swallow very hot tea very quickly to ensure that it didn’t end up all over myself and my computer.

that’s a good rule! I always like to find out what my date is eating and then try to find something that’s that price or lower.

Unless you have friends who take out their insecurities on you by being super judgmental. In that case, get new friends!

We liked to refer to the doorbell as the “dogbell.” Half the time, you didn’t need to ring it because the dog would start barking as soon as you walked up the steps.

Eating out alone is my kryptonite. I don’t know why, but it’s so hard for me to do it. It’s not just picking a place out, but physically eating alone. Almost every other task, i’m okay doing alone (travelling, concerts, movies, museums.), but eating alone makes me uncomfortable.

I’ve never been a raw cookie dough eater. (cake batter, yes!) But I recently made a batch of cookies that had melted browned butter and I ate a bit to see that taste (because I hadn’t made them before), and it was one of the best things I had ever put in my mouth.

I was thinking that it looked like the moss that grows on sloths. But I don’t want to disparage sloths.

It’s on Hulu and I watched it all in one weekend and loved every minute of it! Gimme More!!!

She should just sing with Harry Styles, who is the only male singer I can think of right now who would put in some equal effort.

Old spice with an undercurrent of frying oil.

Cameron Diaz retired. She seems to be doing pretty well.

I’d much rather have someone announce that they like to give hugs, it gives me a chance to say no. I was at a work function and a guy came over and gave me the side hug, out of nowhere, but held on super tight and told me how great I was. I couldn’t escape and all the ladies I was with just stood around. I think we

I’m partial to Prince of Wales. But since I’ve given up dairy, I’ve had to switch to something I can drink without milk. I found Trader Joe’s Winter Wake Up tea, which I find delightful and smells like Christmas.

I didn’t think about it for criminal cases, but I did think that if life “starts” at conception, then couldn’t you get a child tax credit 9 months early?

The fire damage was $8 million, the restitution is only $220K. Gizmodo has a better story on it.

Well, if they want perspective on another shitty president, I guess a Grant biographer is as good as any. 

I asked for an electronic kitchen scale for Christmas. But I might have them throw in a few books too!
