Sorry to hear this. Know I’m in the same boat, 30s, very single, no kids of my own. There’s only 1 person on earth I’m extremely close to, who I totally trust, and who truly fully “gets” me (I have Aspergers, which makes that hard with others). That’d be my mother, who in July we found out has terminal cancer.

My housekeeper came on Monday. I’ve hired someone once a month, and it has relieved so much stress, anxiety, and self-hate. It also has meant that I’ve kept my house picked up and clean in between. I know my mom always said, “it’s easier to keep a clean house clean,” but I would get so overwhelmed. I invited friends…
I’m in favor of honesty, possibly because I’m not good at keeping my fudges straight.
I’m on MeetMe not even TRYING to date; I have “friends only” plastered all over my profile, and oh my god so many 20-somethings that have a weird Mrs. Robinson fetish. Ugh. I’m 44, I think they forget that I WAS 23 once. Sex with a 23-year-old is not some great mysterious adventure.
My mom always lied about her age.. When I was in third grade, some kids were just randomly talking about how old their moms were and I said, “My mom is only 25!” The teacher (Catholic school, to boot) looked horrified, and only years later did I realize that meant she would have been pregnant at 15.
I had to put my best good Gus friend to sleep this morning. I had him for 11 years. He had end stage kidney disease. He made it much longer than the vet expected. There was a dramatic decline in the last couple of days and he was in pain.
Hey! College football, wine, and cats this fine evening. Does anyone want to talk Real Housewives? I think Shannon and David’s marriage is over, and she’s too heartbroken and terrified to face that situation. Peggy is dull and weird. I love Siggy but thought she was super obnoxious in Boca, and let the cake go,…
Thank you! I spend the summer in corals and pinks and bright reds, but all the while I’m glancing at the Berry Naughty bottle like, “SOON.” I love it so much! I brought my bottle to the salon, they’re my natural nails. I usually do my own nails, but I had time and $12 in my wallet this week. I hope you love your…
Did you do them yourself? Do you have gels? Your cuticles are perfection.
OMG. I just came here to tell you I’m obsessed with your nails—gorgeous! So happy to find out it’s the exact same polish I just ordered for myself yesterday. Yay!
Yay, nails! This is Essie’s Berry Naughty, my favorite Fall/Winter shade in the universe. I took my kids to our children’s museum yesterday and when I handed over my credit card, I got “Ooh, I like your nails” from the girl behind the counter and it maaaaaade my day.
I am visiting friends and I got to go back to my old manicurist, who I have never been able to replace because she is that awesome. I just had to do something bright and happy, even though I now work in an uber-conservative environment and all the men in suits will be scandalized for seeing this many colors for the…
Where does she get her lip color? asking for a friend.
So speaking of dogs... This guy came home with me today...
Playing back answering machine or voicemail messages that you left yourself is the WORST. At that points it’s like you aren’t even human.
Btw. Amy Schumer is not the daughter of a US senator. The US senator I think you’re thinking of (Chuck Schumer), they are related, he’s a cousin of her father’s.
And we all know what will happen if she agrees to this open relationship. She will end up sleeping with someone first and he won’t like it :). She will probably then realize she’s better off without him.
