Reba literally just brought a tear to my eye.

So, to compensate for the fact that I hate the holidays, lost my grandfather (aka the best octogenarian friend and housemate a girl could ever ask for) this spring, and had to have my dog/constant companion of over 11 years put down last month, I just booked plane tickets for to Scotland and England in May. Now, I'm…

Dating a new guy for over two months now, we got each other some fun gifts:

Phones on Planes?

"Dating a musician irritations."

No truer words spoken. Teenagers are awful and should be sent to an island between 13 & 18. Myself included at that age.

Very creepy, indeed.

This just goes to show none of these designers have any idea how to dress for a man of Santa's figure. I mean... that leather jacket should be shorter to emphasize his waist and he definitely should not be wearing ankle length skinny jeans in that bottom one. Please pick up any women's mag ever and learn how to…

I've enjoyed the first season of 'Serial' and look forward to the next season, but I've never thought of it as a murder mystery. Going in, I didn't expect a grand reveal in the final episode, a moment where Koenig assembles all the interviewed individuals in a tasteful British country estate parlor, pulls out a pipe…

Heavens to betsy! Next you'll be telling me there are lady doctors and lawyerettes. Women in the workplace! My land, this new century IS exciting!

I think if people online debated the things I said at 17, I would be horrified. (Though, that is in part because I grew up in a really conservative family so my worldview has shifted dramatically since then.)

To be fair, its Game of Thrones. Horrible shit happens to literally everyone. White, black, tall, short, man, woman, dire wolf. The entire premise of the show is "everything sucks for everyone all the time and only bad things happen"

I do that. Or I have inappropriate crushes, like on people a lot older than me or people I work for. Never act on it though. I also get crushes on guys and never ever make a move on them. I also get picky, so when I start seeing a guy who is appropriate, available and into me, they end up doing something that really…

Me too! Stable guys who really seem to like me? Not interested. Guys with drug and alcohol problems who are still in love with their exes? Yes please! I think part of the reason I'm like that is that I'm nervous about serious relationships and looking for excuses to avoid them. I don't know if you're the same way?

Therapy. Lots of soul searching. Meditation. Figuring out what makes me happy and doing it so my happiness comes from myself. It's a slow, incremental work in progress.

Yes. I used to. Then I realized that I didn't actually want to be vulnerable and was terrified of letting anyone in. I was the common denominator and unavailable men could smell it on me.

Right there with you :( I've started wondering if I legit have an issue. Bummer central.

I'm going to tell my friend that I miss her and that I feel hurt when she breaks plans she's made with me. Going to use a lot of "I" statements and speak very calmly. Not going to cry (all emotion leads to tears for me). This is going to go well.

thats sounds soooooooo good!!!!!!!!! me, because i hate cooking.
