My mom wanted to be called Glamma. Glam. Ma. As in glamorous grandma. I told her that she just cemented my decision not to have children.

My mom married a man (my dad) who has the same name as her favorite brother. I always found it a little odd. But then so was her brother—and my dad, come to think of it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I’m vacationing in Taiwan right now. We went to a horse show on Friday and the emcee announced one horse in particular and the crowd started cheering wildly. I asked my Taiwanese friend why that horse was so popular and she said it was because he was named Obama.

I’m not so sure he was ever out. I walked into a trendy Venice restaurant once and thought, “who is that coked-out red-faced small man yelling at a group of models” and it was Spidey.

Same. Cigarettes and bananas? That’s a nightmare. I just asked my husband, “Do you think 3 glasses of Chardonnay a night equal 1 glass, 1 cigarette and 1 banana?” He walked away.

It’s a responsibility I take v. seriously.

I love you, I honestly love you, Bobby.

As a manager of the fancy cheese department (which also includes the wine, beer and liquor), I can say yep, it’s pretty rad. :)

I think they meant she was playing her own personal music while working, and that it’s what had the offensive lyrics. It’s pretty common at Whole Foods to listen to your own stuff either through earbuds or a speaker when you’re working but the store isn’t open.

ha No, I’m just a really sporadic commenter. But your Floridian anecdotes always crack me up. :)

You’ve never sounded more Floridian than right now.

I can hardly fathom this. I’m a morning shower person but I still wash my feet--and only my feet--before bed about 50% of the time because I literally sleep better with clean feet.

Seriously. I would be so sad if Weezy retired. His lyrics have such an exuberance about them and his voice always sounds like it’s barely containing a giggle to me. I do hope he takes better care of his health though. :(

Disagree. Stall doors that open inward often leave insufficient clearance between the toilet seat so that you have to maneuver like a contortionist in order to get out without brushing the backs of your legs against said seat. Which is my personal nightmare.

I have no idea where the Drake hate comes from. I like his music and find him adorkably charming. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I know. I feel bad that there’s a surplus but I’m doing everything I can. I eat cheese like it’s my job because it literally is.

Yes. I approve of this. Kerry(gold) on.

Too. Far.

THIS. I’m tall, blonde and thinish. When I’m “done up,” I’m rarely approached by strangers. But ponytail, no makeup and sweatpants me must also have a sign on my back that says “hi new friend!”

You're not alone. I'm fascinated by our legal system and have a job that would accommodate serving on a jury. Yet I'm mid-30s and have never been summoned. It's truly one of the great disappointments of my life. Put me in, coach!
