I am absolutely not trying to be offensive with this post. I don't have kids and don't want them, so my only way to relate is via my non-human "kids". I take pictures of my mortally ill or elderly pet rats at the vet, in their final moments before we go in and have them PTS. Having that one last image of a being I…

I actually have been sitting on a vegan candy corn recipe for ages but I'm SO LAZY. Haha. It took me years to make vegan cadbury eggs, too. Those turned out to be a lot easier than I anticipated (since I made them in cup form, screw all that dip/chill/dip stuff), so I should just suck it up and make the dang candy…

Halloween is the worst for me, as far as sadness over candy goes. I'm a long time vegan and I WANT those mellocreme pumpkins so bad. I mean, I haven't eaten one in like 10 years but I remember loving the little bastards. And they do not make vegan ones. SADDEST OF SAD FACES. Binge for two, my friend! ;)

Ah, I'm childfree so you could definitely fit what I don't know about childbearing into a very large volume of books. ;) Tokophobia = didn't delve very far into it beyond the whole "AVOID AVOID AVOID" part. Haha.

Cashew cheese is fucking delicious. I refuse to call it nut cheese because that just sound so unappealing... but nut based raw cheeses are really tasty!

(note: frustrated tone not directed at you, but at this bag o' fruit and nuts)

Aw, now THIS is a cute story. Yours is better, since in it the humans are genuinely kind and trying to help and the ducklings are actually acting of their own will and doing something they enjoy, untormented. Sweet story. :D I'd have watched the little fuzzies do that for hours, giggling. :)

I'm sure you are. :) Also, post-divorce I don't fuck around with indirectness. It's not worth it to be coy. Asking him, "hey does this bug you/should we work on it" is way better.

I actually discussed this thread with him and we talked. We're fine. He's a pretty special sort of guy and not at all the typically alpha male. I am in recovery from EDNOS but I don't think that affects things. It might. I dunno. I've always not had a super high drive. We're just an exception to your rule, I guess.…

I think you're looking more at younger folks and not as much at longer term relationships with slightly older couples. I'm 33, SO is 32 and we've been together about 8 years now. We don't have sex very often at all and haven't for a while. Either due to our schedules not meshing, life shit getting in the way or just…

For a while my fella was running with me and it drove me BATTY that his long legs = he can outsprint me at the end of a run/race. I can run his ass into the ground over any distance over a mile (especially now, he stopped training after his second Half while I've run ultramarathons for two years) but if we were out on…

Mine does that, too and it's gross. I love him like pancakes but I don't want to deal with his snot rags in our bedroom and all over my car! AND he leaves empty plates/ soda cans on top of my laptop. If I even look like I might come close to touching his computer screen he acts lke I'm kicking puppies, so it makes me…

THANK YOU. Christ, that drives me bonkers. BONKERS.

Word. I run distance races (marathons and ultras up to he 50 mile mark, so far) and those BAMFs hitting the trail with me on ultra races are all shapes, all sizes and all fit as hell. I may not look like this lady but I am fit, strong and proud of what my body can do, not just how it looks.

Eh, still not worth it to me. I'd rather sleep in! :)

I love you right now. I have HUGE muscular quads (distance running and trails... you can't not have it happen) and large, defined calves. I love the calves but I feel really bad off and on about the size of my thighs. I know it's muscle and I often find them beautiful when alone but I get extremely self concious about…

Yeah, carmine can screw with folks. Also, ICK.

Maybe it makes YOU feel lazy, depressed and sloppy. I'd be careful with extending how you experience that to every other woman. We're all different!

I stopped wearing makeup (the minimal amount I wore: BareMinerals base powder, eyebrow darkener, mascara, eyeliner) when I started running distance. If I'm going to be running after work anyway, screw it. I'd rather have the extra sleep and time to make coffee. And I hate running with stuff on my face.

Haha. I was recently offered admittance and we had a fancy dress party in a park and were incredibly vulgar and racy. It was great. Basically, I think you just have to say fuck a lot and be pretty awesome, in general. :)
