Last Christmas, my mom called to tell me that she was having a bad day and was also getting sick, and she was driving to work when that terrible song came on. And in spite of hearing it - and hating it - for years before...she cried. And then she realized what she was doing, called in sick to work, and went home. …

He was the passenger of the car. And the accounts I have read, make it clear it was charity event, not randomly street racing.

Dill Pickle Soup. BAM!

You could say...it's what it's cracked up to be.

At least they'll not be talking to each other in the same place. Since 1997, my birth family has pretended I don't exist. My grandfather died, they didn't tell me and told my daughter they'd pay for her plane ticket to the funeral ONLY if she didn't tell me he was dead until afterwards. My father died two years ago…

Good thing I have man hands!

Breakfast quesadilla?! Taco soup?! (is that like tortilla soup?) I'm no amateur when it comes to food, but both of these are new to me and both sound amazing. I went to the store today hoping to score some discount halloween candy and found that they had already transitioned to xmas candy! I bought a bag of red and…

I made a giant pot of taco soup for dinner and if I didn't have to be sitting upright in order to look at my computer I would be in a full-blown food coma right now.. food comaaaaa.

He's looking for attention.

I can't with the racism this year. When it is not blackface, it is people going as a chola.

Yeah, worth it. It's like an encyclopedia, sorta. Here's a picture of a random page!

I was just about to seek some advice from the Jezebel world about my new boss and then I remembered... SHE FUCKING READS AND COMMENTS ON JEZEBEL ALSO.

Guys, the school I work at got invited to trick-or-treat at the White House, and I get to chaperone.
I AM SO EXCITED.

I really dont understand the opposition to same sex marriage. Straight people know how awful marriage is and if you truly hated gay people for some stupid reason wouldnt you want them to feel just as miserable?

I see nothing wrong with what she said. Too many folks are concerned with offending those bootleg "feminists" (who bastardize the true values of feminism that never cosigned this fuckery) that they allow trifling behavior/demeanor to go on unchecked. I may not be a fan of hers, but Rashida Jones earns major points…

If Ellen is waiting for the Peace Prize from Sweden, it'll be a while. The peace prize is awarded by a committee in Norway.

Sounds good. Mail me a brownie, will ya?

I am 52 and so sick of my period. It has been happening every 20 days for the past year or so, including right now. I am not pleased with this at all.
