“You know what? Even if someone just died, if you don’t know me, don’t fucking hug me. I got enough going on. One of the worst things about dealing with my mother’s sudden, unexpected death was fighting off all the attempted huggings by people I didn’t know.”

Nothing better than someone initiating the hug with “I know you’re not a hugger...”

I don’t think apologies get much better than this, and I am someone deeply ambivalent about Franken at the moment. (And also a constituent.)

Yes, thank you for the concern. :)

I have recently watched days worth of Real Housewives episodes — thanks, Hulu — and all of them can approximate a semi-happy expression.

I will never read a book by Anna Faris, because even I have standards. ;)

Really, the history of modern music is strewn with songs about grown-assed men sharing their interest in the young stuff.

My point is that cats and dogs have no reason not to vomit immediately because they have no particular reason or sense of it being embarrassing or impolite to let loose. Humans, if they can, tend to fight the urge until they can get to a bathroom or bag or other container.

“I understand she is more down to earth than Gwen...”

“I switched depts. and ended up working for a young, good looking guy. Whenever I needed something would wrap his arms around me from behind as I sat at my desk and put his chin on my shoulder as he looked at my screen. I always wanted to scream, “This is not ok, because I can’t really say anything without…

Such are the times.

If you’ve never made up alternative filthy lyrics to a song, can you say you’ve really lived?

Rick Springfield did give it his best try though.

Um, I made out with a Fonz poster in front of my other 10 or 11 year old friends. :)

I had the lunchbox too.

Fair enough. :)

This reminds me that a table spoon or so of canned pumpkin is great to add to a dog’s meal for fiber or to bulk it up a little for weight loss. (Also, green beans.)
