I always think about the color of my urine. I use it as a gauge of whether I'm getting enough water. I didn't realize that too light was a sign that I should cut back on water, though.

I love this world in which MC Lyte shows up to stuff! And looks the same age she did 20 years ago!!

The only thing better than Michelle Monaghan is Michelle Monaghan with bangs.

I skip the bird and go straight to the stuffing (but not when I'm at my aunt's house; they use giblets in their dressing [what they call stuffing] and I have a strict no bits policy when it comes to stuffing).

Thanks. I think I love you.

I haven't given the first of those two enough thought to be squicked out, but I crack up like a 14-year-old every time I hear the word munch. Heh

Please don't ever tell me anything terrible about Pharrell. I love everything about this man, from his ageless beauty, to his interestingly-spelled name, to his pretty pretty voice.

That's Lupita Nyong'o. From 12 Years a Slave. She's also currently beating out JLaw for the role of my new best friend. This woman deserves all the jobs.

Ms. Nyong'o, can we be best friends and jointly employ your makeup and shoe people forever?

Hearing men say "panties" is the only time I experience the word aversion thing.

Maybe he's like all of those supermodels who were supermodel hot in high school but swore everybody was too shy to ask them out. And he's just waiting for you??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

I would find it unprofessional if somebody who I was interviewing wore a sleeveless top. The pants in the first look certainly need to be hemmed, but I'd probably take an applicant in the first outfit more seriously than one in the second. I don't usually wear makeup, so a makeup-free face wouldn't strike me as less…

I used to live next door to a married couple comprised of a brownish Salvadoran woman and a white American man. Their daughters all came out gorgeous, pale brunettes, but really do look a lot like their mother, feature-wise. When the youngest was 3, her mom was prevented from leaving the El Salvador with her, due to…

Public proposals make me cringe so hard. Although anybody who does propose should be as confident as possible that his or her proposal will be accepted, doing it in public adds an element of coercion that I find excruciating.

Sean Penn is the personification of cognitive dissonance.

It took your comment to make me parse that phrase. And now I really really really wish that I hadn't. Giant shudder.

I dig until I've devoured all of the Melba toasts and pretzels, and then go back for the actual Chex.
