It was the opposite of that, though. I was insulted that he was using me as a way to say "no, I'm totally straight," but it came out he had known he was gay since he was 14. He was 24 when this happened. THAT was insulting, but I was really sad for him (after the anger and hurt went away) that he was so ashamed by…

Ooh, my cheating ex told me he wanted a divorce on our wedding anniversary.

I'd been dating this guy for two and a half years, and he came down with a sore throat that just wouldn't go away. He kept asking me to look at his throat and tell him if I thought he had tonsillitis...for like three weeks. Yeah, you could see all these horrible pustules at the back of his throat.

I had a lot of weird fears that made me do weird things. I was born in 1980, and was absolutely obsessed with space...the shuttles, Sally Ride...everything and everyone. I'll never figure out why my parents thought it was a good idea to give me all the facts about any particular thing (when it was clear I couldn't…

Dear Barbara!

Taco flavored kisses for my Ben!

Also, soybean farming is responsible for the deforestation of rainforests in Brazil. A friend of mine posted a really great article a few years ago (it just happened to be when I was getting very enthusiastic about tofu so I totally felt guilty) when she got back from several months in the Amazon. I can't find that…

Civil rights still seem to be ridiculous for plenty of people.

Excuse me, that was Gretchen Weiners' dad. And I don't think he'd be too pleased to hear about this.

I kind of feel like June from HDTGM.
