A few months ago they remodeled the office bathroom and took out a stall. Now there’s a line half the time because there are so many women on this floor. By 4:00 PM we usually start running out toilet paper in some of the stalls. So I decided to try a bathroom on another floor and discovered they have MUSIC in the 3^rd…

I think this is a cute idea meant to be fun with a big family, rather than a serious parenting strategy. We have two kids and prefer to foster cooperation and negotiation over competition, at least between siblings. I’m guessing this is for a family with an elaborate Pinterest chore chart.

My OB required that the first postpartum check include a visit by a midwife in his office. At first I was irked, but then I realized that it was mainly to suss me out for PPD. So +1 on the mental health checks for mom.

I went to this cave in New Zealand that had to place motion sensors that sounded a rather loud alarm when anyone tried to touch the formations. In a two hour tour the alarm went off 4 or 5 times.

I live in Park La Brea. There’s a 7/11 on 3rd at Pan Pacific park and a liquor store at Wilshire and Crescent Hgts. Neither one of those sound like what’s being described in this article. <shrug> Oh! How about the Toluca Mart, does...that..count?

“Safeway wants to start selling booze and everyone is up in arms over it”

“I also feel like bodegas are like totally a New York thing.”

I just want to throw in here that, although the CDC doesn’t recommend getting the shingles vax till 60, I would caution that you may want it sooner than that. I’m one of 3 woman I know between the age of 48 and 51 that have gotten shingles since Jan. Stress, menopausal, and age seem to be the factors for us. I got the…

I don’t go as far as the whole Natal chart thing, but if someone questions me about my behavior I do toss out “Libra!” by way of explanation.

Oh that pic hurts...sigh...the longing. I wish they would bring all that shit back lock, stock, and shoulder pads. I miss real clothes. I miss spending time in the AM staring at my closet wondering who I felt like being today.

“But wider legs are and have been the trend.”

I like her, I want to be her friend. Now I’m going to go watch the other Clothes Whores vids I managed to miss somehow. Also, she has great skin.

I’m an old X’er and I took my family of four to ONE fucking movie this summer and it cost me $97 with two small sodas and two popcorns. Pretty soon Millennials are going to start bitching about why their X’er parents didn’t save more money during their prime earning years and it won’t be because we ate too much avo…

Fuck patriarchy, think of the paperwork you’ll be filling out for 18 years, says the pretentious mom that gave her kids two middles names.   It’s not just school paperwork, it’s medical forms, and passport applications. I wish I had thought about that instead of thinking about how clever I am or how I can make both…

None of the is applicable if you have children under the GTFO age.

“..highest grossing film for a female director, and will allow Jenkins to negotiate a record-setting salary for the sequel.”
 

You can count on the British to dress for a wedding. I live in L.A., but got married in Scotland. An elderly British couple showed up (friends of my in-laws) in a top hat, morning coat (I think that’s what it’s called), tiara and an ankle length gown!

Yes, Diana’s dress was perfect for that period. Although I didn’t like Kate’s dress, I have to admit that her’s too was perfect for the period. Wedding dress styles are cyclical. Hell, I even saw a photo shoot for a wedding pant suit recently!

I requested a 14 foot long veil because of the shot of her coming up the aisle. Although hers was of course much longer, I just loved that shot. It was one of several shots my photographer missed and the only thing you see of my veil is it bunched up at the foot of my dress, sigh...

Oooohhh, can I play?! Outfit of the day: silver and lavender Sketchers (I work in an office but at a standing desk, so my footwear are always comfy), dark grey leggings, light grey linen H&M tunic, topped with a black polyester, sleeveless faux trench coat/jacket. Like you, my accessories cost more. Aside from my…
