I'm in awe of people who can do their own nails. I splurged for a gel manicure last week and now my nails are silver and glittery for the holidays. Yes, I'm part magpie and partial to shiny things.

My friends and I were all late bloomers when it came to relationships. Of the ten of us, only one had a serious boyfriend in high school and two more in college. Now we're approaching our ten-year high school reunion and most of us are paired up or have had a long-term relationship in the last year. Only one has never…

Tina Fey and Amy Poehler's friendship makes me so happy! I'm a little bummed that Lisa Kudrow might not have been serious because she was always my go-to example of someone losing their virginity later than usual for non-religious reasons. Like Tina Fey, I first had sex at 24, but he was NOT husband material.

It's all about the journey, right?

I'm babysitting a ten year-old boy who loves football and he wanted to watch the announcement, so we did. If he was my son, I would have said no and talked about rape culture, but that is not the kind of thing you can spring on someone else's kid.

He may be OLD, but he is not a MAN.

You are not alone. I got dumped October 29 by my boyfriend of three years, with whom I thought I was going to spend the rest of my life, so I feel your pain. We'd been living together for seven months and I just feel lost without him. When I'm around other people, I'm ok, but I cry in my car and in my room A LOT. I…

You need a lawyer and you need to make him pay what he owes. Try not to let his relationship to his other child bother you. It may not seem like it now, but your daughter is better off without a dad like that in her life. A responsible adult would not ignore his own child.

Best advice ever: "Don't compare your insides to someone else's insides." Those people who seem more together than you, could share your uncertainties. Perfection is monotonous anyway. The fact that you're not firmly settled means you still have room to grow and develop into the person you want to be.

Is there a reason you can't get a pet right now? Cats are pretty self-sufficient and inexpensive compared to dogs. Also, if big groups stress you out, maybe you could plan smaller gatherings with your close friends. I'm a big fan of game nights and murder mystery dinners.

I'm so sorry to hear about your dad's diagnosis. I totally understand wanting to please him, but you can't plan your life around someone else's expectations, even someone you love. I bet deep down your dad cares more about you being happy than finding a husband.

Fun fact: Lisa Kudrow from Friends lost her virginity at age 28.

You sound awesome. I would drink wine with you if I wasn't babysitting. 8 year-olds are resilient, so I bet your son will survive the move. Keep us all updated on your adventures! Sounds like 2014 will be an exciting year for you.

I liked the book, but the movie was AWFUL.

Apparently Carlos is the male form of Cruella.

It's bad enough when people use "it's a joke" to excuse rudeness, but to excuse racism? Unacceptable. When my brother does this I just stay stony-faced and say, "That's not funny."

I'm hoping that her feet aren't in frame and she's just wearing those boots because it's freezing.

Handy with a needle?

I loved The Way Way Back!

This confused me too. Aren't the ladies from Heart American? And they first started playing near Seattle.
