This is why my kid is not even yet three and he's already got more in his savings account than we have in ours. We ask his grandparents not to spoil him with more toys he doesn't need and instead throw us a little cash here and there for his college fund. We're not rich, so we'll never be able to pay for his school…

Hmmm? What is the word I am looking for?? It's on the tip of my tongue.

I make my living by preparing students to get into college, and they are so determined that their life must go down this path by getting into such-and-such quality school because U.S. News & World Report tells them so, and I'm trying to fathom how they're going to get through the rest of their lives with…

It was hard to be friends immediately after the breakup, because he really wanted to get back together, but we've both had at least a couple of serious relationships since then and 5 years (to the day!…

oh lord jesus. i haven't eaten/made home-baked bread in far too long.

I'm good friends with a handfull of my ex's. I lived with one of them for about two years after we broke up. As to the engage/married thing, I had two ex's attend my wedding. One was the DJ. He's still one of my very best friends. I still talk to the other regularly but he lives out of state now.
