god me too. i haven't been back to my childhood horror house yet, but i plan to...saying a proper goodbye to that place feels like a necessary part of the catharsis work.

I will never understand how a tote bag could cost more than my rent.

I have a shocking confession. I have never seen 30 Rock.

Coffee and anxiety disorders don't mix so well. Being an insomniac, I feel like I have to choose between being an exhausted brain-dead zombie or being a sweaty jittering anxious wreck. GUH.

Guy #1, that is fucking terrible!

Thanks Alec, we'll file this under "how you stay relevant."

oh dear...if the 2005 dress is "inspirational" then we are in trouble. that dress is a little hideous. it's hard to make a mermaid tail look good, and the gapey strapless doesn't help.

I don't think "I'm fine" really constitutes a lie. "Fine" doesn't actually mean "fine" anymore; it's just a way of saying "i don't want to talk about it." Or it's the other half of a standard greeting - "hi how are you?" "i'm fine, and you?" just like saying "hello to you too."

oh god, me too. i feel completely unhinged for 2-3 weeks out of every month. how do i make it stop?? my poor hubby must feel like he lives with a psychotic, hungry bear half the time.

yeah, i need a drug that will make me crave fruits and vegetables, and have zero interest in junk food.

I hope this ends up being effective and becomes available sooner rather than later. I am willing to try pretty much anything that might help, and it would be more comfortable and convenient to be able to work on it from my own home. And hopefully more affordable too. I have spent tens of thousands of dollars on…

i can think of quite a few people who should be spayed or neutered. most of them are on television.

yeah, look at the scandal at the toronto humane society...trying so hard to be a no-kill that they were overrun with really sick animals that were suffering and should have been put down. and so many animals that they couldn't adequately care for them.

D:

and not just neutering either. there are puppy shots, yearly checkups and vaccinations, and tons of vet expenses if the critter actually gets sick or injured. one of our dogs picks up every bug going around. a colleague's dog keeps swallowing her pantyhose and socks. a neighbour's dog grew a huge tumour on his…

+1

personally, i choked on the headline. "naughty" is a way too cutesy word to apply to someone committing sex offences.

Thanks for the detailed info! I had no idea there were these stores where you can buy the professional stuff. It just never occurred to me; I am like a tree stump when it comes to hair and makeup.

I think I've tried the intense red copper, it was nice :)
