Good news—it is not going to be terribly expensive to get your cat to the US from the UK! I just brought my dog home from Scotland and flew Iceland Air and they charge essentially an excess baggage fee (but your furry friend is in temperature/pressure controlled area unlike baggage obvs). You call the airline directly…

I love my FitBit! I like doing the weekly challenges with some of my friends and relatives who have them as well. It is super motivating to move when I am feeling sloth-like.

I love animals and when my now-husband and I first started talking about wanting a dog, we were working through expectations for division of care, size preferences, training, etc. I was saying to him how I’d miss the hypothetical dog all day at work and wished you could call your dog on a doggy cell phone or something…

It’s a good thing no one else is home right now because I just made some ridiculous noises scrolling down this page. Squeeeee

Found out this week after visiting an immigration attorney that it’s going to take 12-14 months to process my husband’s green card and I’m pretty much dead now from sadness and anxiety. For people unfamiliar with US immigration processes, there’s nothing unusual about our case. That’s just how long it takes (stage 1:…

Everything important and insightful has already been said, so

Me, too. Tears sprang to my eyes, which isn’t something I thought would ever happen to me during a Beyonce video.

Whoa. It scares me that people that detached from decency and empathy have weapons.

Halloumi is so delicious though. No regrets.

And I’m positive it’s mega over-priced.

This is hilarious and cute!

Currently appreciating my free tote bag swag because I travel to six different locations to do outreach/story times for my job and I have a different bag o’ books + fun for each place. I knew I’d hung on to those for something!

I’m not religious either and I actually take comfort in the idea of people like this ceasing to exist and no longer having an effect on/be effected by anything. What a release for the people harmed by the actions of horrible people that they’ve vanished.

Me too. I heard her mother crying on the radio and talking about her daughter loving pandas and American Idol and my face started leaking on the way to work. (My little sister goes to Tech and I’m so thankful she never knew this creep, which might also have something to do with my reaction).

Ha my mind went to Zora Neal Hurston first then wait..... no, not right

Me too! People are always asking me “So how are you?” in this searching way.

My BFF’s dad is a retired police officer (Edinburgh) and he would mail her care packages with these goofy poems inside. Not all police in the UK are that nice, but there are at least two!

So much of his public persona is based on being over the top, but I can see him being really nice. He seems quiet (except for when he’s not) and loves his family and rapped about loving his mom so I’d believe it. It’s hard not to imagine him being super protective of his creative space, but someone else commented to…

Imagining more an undirected rage fest. Who are these people in my space! I am god! This is Heaven! Peter didn’t open the pearly gates for you—-!

Would love to know how Kanye reacted to Andre 3000 showing up with randoms to his studio session. I feel like he would either be really gracious (as much of a jerk as he can be, something in me feels like he’d be a good host?) or go apeshit. Nothing between.
