One of my cats is from PAWS. They do good work. Even though I adopted my cat from PAWS via a PETCO store, PAWS followed up with me a couple times via phone to see how new kitty was integrating into my life—I was happy to know they seemed really interested and invested in how we were both adjusting to the new situation…
In a few years my bf/SO/whatever will be 50, and I'm pretty sure he would need therapy if someone called him a "gentlemen caller" because he'd feel like someone assumed he was alive in the 1890s. ;) But I know what you're saying: it's a challenge, there's no perfect term for adults in a…
I admit I buy jeans there. I'm narrow-hipped, so their jeans fit me really well. Going in the store once a year is an olfactory nightmare, though. Also, since I am 44 years old, I'm pretty sure all the clerks think I'm there shopping for my (nonexistent) teen until I try on jeans. Then they probably just think I'm…
I'm in my mid-40s, and the idea of using the words "boyfriend" or "girlfriend" for my situation just feels weird, although I do sometimes call my live-in SO my "boyfriend" in conversation or refer to myself as his "girlfriend" (and then usually I feel slightly stupid as soon as the terms trip off my tongue).…
I'm still stuck on the fact that people manage to walk around and eat these foods at the same time. Walking and eating are beyond my skillset in the best of circumstances, never mind with fair crowds, running children, plastic cutlery, and balancing piles of gooey and bite-sized food in flimsy paper cups. If I manage…
>"It's wonderful that they're still in school and they're trying to finish up their education, but at the same time it doesn't really convey the reality of what they are going through."
Eeesh, no. I see just general chemtrails crap from a couple devotee wingnuts. Suddenly I feel lucky it's general conspiracy theory garbage and isn't worse with added racism.
The chemtrails thing has me thisclose to unfriending several people. They are beyond reason and determined to believe every YouTube nutjob post and faux-news story.
I love France, I love spending time in France, but they have deep-rooted race issues for sure. Casual racism is still def mainstreamed. Last time I was there (a few years ago), I walked into a Parisian post office branch and it was some costume holiday/promotion. The all-white employees were dressed in "Moroccan…
Even a half updo—back from the ears with some elegant braids and the rest down—would show off her earrings and the dress better.
I went to the restaurant's Facebook page to "like" this specific post. Good on him! My faith in humanity is temporarily restored.
I believe you, and it's nice of you to post a helpful tip. But sweet baby Jeebus, that sounds like so much work I don't want to do. I file, buff, and if I'm feeling fancy: clear nail polish. I enjoy makeup and fancy lotions, soaps, and shampoos, but man, I have zero patience for the nail stuff. I also have freakishly…
