I have written about this before I will share some of what I have said:

My custody trial starts next week. I have so much to do to prepare. Testimony & documentation (discovery). I'm learning the rules of evidence and trial proceedings.

Is anyone else SO READY for 2013 to be over? This has been a spectacularly shit year for me. I went back to grad school, because I need a master's to advance in my field, but I HATE IT, and I miss working so much. My sister died. My depression, which hasn't really flared up since 2010, came back in a serious way. …

Jezzies, how do you deal when your life is in a shambles? I met a man this past summer, who seemed to be a perfect match for me. I know that perfection is something that only Disney pedals as reality, but we were a good match for each other, and all our friends were ecstatic that we finally found someone that…

I have a huge decision to make and no idea what to do. Two years ago I took a promotion to get out of a department that I loved working in but absolutely could not move up in. I had been turned down for two jobs I was ridiculously qualified for And I was doing work well above my pay grade for 3 years with no…

Lol, I feel you. I'm reading it for a class, is all. :) I just want to read a companion guide to it to get a more objective view, or at least a different view, than what I'll come up with, haha.

What shoes should I wear with a formal black Grecian style dress? It's a hi-low dress, ends at my feet in the back and right below my knees in the front. I'd post a pick but my iPad seems to be allergic to kinja.

Sometimes you just get to a point in your life when you're so used to being single that the idea of dating is just exhausting. Especially since I'm actually really happy being 31, working, and only having to worry about my little dog. I joined OKC for a couple weeks and I saw a couple guys who seemed like people I'd…

Does anyone else have a problem where they're making out with a man and he thinks it's sexy to pin your wrists down and kiss you aggressively? I told him to stop—as I've told other men to stop doing the same thing—not because I didn't want to make out but because it reminds me of rape images and makes me fear for a…

I had the most awesome OKCupid date last night! We'd been creeping on each other's profiles for awhile and he finally got the nerve to write to me. He asked me on Wednesday for dinner on Saturday, which is perfect because I'm a planner and like to have things set in stone. We went to dinner, he opened doors for me,…

I have no idea what to get my boyfriend's parents for Christmas. Any suggestions for gifts for people who are hard to buy for? They're into food but don't really have hobbies aside from their cats. Last year I got his dad some stuff for his bar and got his mom some jewelry but this year I'm not feeling inspired.…

I've been waiting for this!! So, I still frequent a bunch of wedding message boards, often for my own amusement, even though I'm now married. Today there was a thread a woman started wherein her husband demanded she block/delete all exes from her Facebook, and block a friend of hers that mentioned he had a crush on…

Relationship question time! How do your feelings guide your relationships? For example, do you refuse to date anyone who doesn't immediately take your breath away? Do you spend a while with guys you kinda like, only to discover a few months in that you love them? Have you ever met someone you immediately knew was The…

I defended my Master's thesis this week! I'm done and it's weird. I'm also unemployed right now and pretty desperate to find a job.

Best companion book for Atlas Shrugged?

I start an awesome new job tomorrow (fuck yeah!) and plan to tell them sometime around the end of the week that I'm pregnant (also exciting to have a kid, but awkward to be like, "BTW, gonna pop one out in June). NERVES. I wish being a working woman and having a kid didn't feel like a liability.

Can I give you some advice? At least, this worked for me. Write sentence. Realize it sounds bad. Leave it anyway. Save document. Repeat.

I feel like I'm a little late to this party, but does anyone have any tips for dealing with a very rude, self centered, and inconsiderate roommate?

Jezzie Runners! Does any have recommendations for winter running gear? I have few things I bought from Athletica last year, the long underwear I wear skiing, as well as cheapy gloves/headband, but I didn't do a ton of winter running last year and overall our winter was pretty mild here (NYC). This year it is…

My Nana was a code breaker in WWII! She is 91 years old and super awesome!
