We like to call our dog Gracie-bear because when she sits, all lop-sided, she looks like a little polar bear!

I like to hope that her family has spoken to her, but not the press.

That's the gist of it. I manage to control quite well via diet and exercise. It means you get to eat carbs OR drink OR have a soda etc, but having the energy to go do things beats the taste of any food I can have at a different meal. Also, holy hell do chia seeds work well (for me & the Nerdy Mister both), basically…

"But she is not just the person I see at this point in time. She is the totality of all the decades we have been together."

Don't feel bad. Apparently, here in Rockland County, we're upstate New York.

Pretty sure people draw boobs a lot too.

You go! Take care of yourself, you totally deserve it and are worth it!

Plenty of other beverages and foods are acidic. Coffee, for example. But, yeah, they kind of keep changing their minds about what's good for your teeth.

Just watch out for goiters. If you get one, break your rule once and have a little iodized salt.

I hardly see any greek yogurt since the "craze" with it that doesn't have 0 or 1% fat. When I can find 2% at this point I cry with joy.

I'm probably going to get some comments back on this myself, but I have a sensitivity to sugars (less like diabetes, more like insulin resistance). If I opt out of full-fat milk, within a month, I'm basically lactose intolerant. Skim milk is pretty much sugar water to my body.

Pulling focus is one of those things that it takes years to learn how to do properly. If you watch movies and TV very carefully, you'll see that it's not 100% even in 1st class productions. Tricks that pros use are: static cameras, and always shoot more footage than you need. Seriously, take at least 3 takes of…

"the romance industry is populated with intelligent and supportive women who care about the craft and business of writing. I'm proud to be a romance writer."

This chart needs some revision. The least they could do is change that to Game Boy Advance.

This afternoon it seems a bit better. Somebody said boys will be boys, and the other half of the internet said, hey now. At least the weight of the negative comments didn't make me despair for humanity. . . . today.

I thought it was spelled Jew-I-S-H, but I'll stop calling my friends that if it's rude.
