Wow. I felt so much of myself in her — the wanderlust, the fear that motherhood would limit my adventures (since being of modest means has limited them so much already) — and this hit me right in the gut. Mostly the fallout — the sympathy, the grief, the marital problems. I'm just... wow. So well written.

Love it! I love it when I accomplish the little things; they're the things I tend to put off. I went through my clothes and donated a huge bag over the summer; it felt awesome to actually get it done.
It's funny, I always think all week, "Man, I can't wait for an Open Thread!" But then when it gets here all I can think about is venting about stuff, and I HATE coming across as a Negative Nelly, so then I don't post anything and then I feel left out. I want to say things! I want to have things to say in the first…
Go to Payless and slip on some of their "Comfort Plus" line shoes. You will never be the same. I have 3 different pairs of shoes and 3 sandals from that line, they are incredible. They are slightly wedged to give support (I can't wear fully-flat flats because of a heel issue) and it's like walking on a cloud. …
Nooo, the Skarsgard meltdown was my favorite part of the movie! The part where he was like, "......I need to put on my pants" was the best line of the movie, IMO!
This resonates. I just recently got a new phone and was bewildered by the dearth of small phones. They're all so massive now. I finally stumbled upon the Droid Mini at an electronics store — they didn't even have them on display at the Verizon store! It's not as zippy as the newer, bigger-named Droids (Ugh I…
...who is this guy? Should I know who he is? Am I in a cave? I mean, obviously a douchecanoe, and I clicked the links AND did a Google search, but like... why do we pay attention to him?
I would just like to thank you for this GIF. I didn't know I needed it in my life until I saw what I had been missing!
Wait, does this mean a horrible and problematic film like Bride Wars (and by horrible I mean I may or may not enjoy it way more than I should) passes the test? Because I'm pretty sure they talk about their weddings, which technically include men, but the conversations aren't ABOUT the men specifically.
If anything I give Peter Jackson props for adding some bulk to characters like Arwen, who in the book was essentially a prop with barely any substance who appears on the periphery, but who in the film was pivotal and important and strong (and in every film).
They pee, they poop, they start bleeding from their nipples... I will never, ever understand.
I think you mean Ass-guard-ian, amirite?
The one little girl who threw her paper at her parents, she looks so much like my (really spoiled, really bratty) niece that I had to stop the video. Ugh. Gross.
Maybe this is just my bad mood talking, but if this isn't an effective birth control video, I don't know what is.
True story, this was a thing in 2007 because on my first date with my ex, whom I met online, our big joke was that he was going to abduct me in his creepy white van. As in, whenever we passed one that was parked, we laughed that it was his.
I'm sorry you feel this way! My feelings about showers are similarly complicated — I've been a bridesmaid for two sisters-in-law now and both have had huge, over-the-top expensive showers that I've had to help foot the bill for, and deep down there's a part of me that's bummed because I don't know if anyone would do…
Guys! I'm a little late but I NEED ADVICE! I finally decided to by myself an immersion/hand blender (which is the preferred name, BTW? I've seen both!) at Target — found a nice Oster one for $23 and was so excited. But when I got home with it it made a horrible squealing sound like the metal was grinding. So, I…
Off topic, but damn that Boyz II Men song kills me. A friend from when I studied abroad died in a car accident, and some of his friends made a video tribute to him with that song as the music. I can't listen to it now without thinking about that video. :(
