Not that I think that a doctor's note is a viable solution, but isn't that part of the article? In the study, (some) women admitted to doing this. Anecdotally, I have had coworkers who did this. Of course, I've also had coworkers of both genders who mysteriously "got the flu" right after a night of partying.

I am so sorry that you have to deal with that every month.

She said she takes ibuprofen, which is not.

As I said in my original post, I don't have a problem with her success. I don't have a problem with her writing a book. If people watch her show and buy her book, that's great for both her and all the people that have jobs because of her success.

As one of the people annoyed by that, I'll try to explain why it bothers me. First, I don't blame Dunham for that assertion. I don't resent her success. Her tv show doesn't appeal to me personally, but I have friends who watch it and like it. Second, I don't really remember any of the people you mentioned being

The only thing I dislike about the Lena Dunham phenomenon isn't even her fault. I just really hate that so many people pegged her as the "voice of [my] generation." I think it is wonderful that she is successful, and I have no problem with her getting money and recognition for her work. Good for her!

They should definitely go looking at their states Landlord Tenant Laws and/or talk to someone. Most urban areas and even many rural ones have a legal aid office where they could at least get a consultation. As teotwawki pointed out, most states (maybe even all states) have a Landlord Tenant Act that requires a basic

Also important to know - in many states, the landlord cannot opt out of making repairs, even if the lease says it is the tenant's responsibility (this is assuming it is a residential lease). So if that is in your contract, you are not necessarily on the hook for repairs though it will probably be difficult to get the

I like your style, spcagigas.

I just want to add that you should make sure that you document everything in writing! Many landlord-tenant laws require that certain types of repairs be done within X number of days of the request. Exactly what number X is will vary by state and just how hazardous the conditions are. If you end up going to court, it

For whatever it's worth, here is a link to what I was talking about http://www.journalfen.net/community/bad_penny/8985.html

I actually don't know any of this first-hand. I was in HP fandom for a bit, but it was after the reign of the BNAs. I remember reading a write up of what happened by the person who originally reported her to FF.net. It was probably unfair of me to state it the way I did in my original post, since that person can't

It may be different where you are, but I can give you some (hopefully not misguided) hope. I work in the federal legal system, and due dates are measured by postmarks for us too. However, weekends and federal holidays don't count, so any due date that falls on one of those days/dates means that the deadline is

I'm excited this might work out. :) Since there are multiple responses, I'm going to reply to myself so hopefully everyone can see it (Curses on Kinja for making this difficult).

There are interested people - hooray! Okay, so am I correct in thinking a weekend would probably be easiest for people?

Awesome! Which direction are you in? I'm GPA too, in the suburbs on the Main Line, but I work downtown. Since there are multiple responses, I'm going to reply to myself so hopefully everyone can see it (Curses on Kinja for making this difficult).

Me too! Which direction are you on the R5? I'm out on the Main Line in Narberth. :) Since there are multiple responses, I'm going to reply to myself so hopefully everyone can see it (Curses on Kinja for making this difficult).

Aww. I feel you! If you ever want tips or just need to vent, I can lend a sympathetic ear. I just graduated law school this May, and I work for the feds now. I will hopefully be a full-fledged attorney next Friday when I get my bar results back!

Solid, but not particularly exceptional. I think I will make some tweaks to the recipe the next time I make it! There is a level of satisfaction in making real food, I agree! I've been trying to move away from processed foods and more into home cooking/salads/etc.

Any Jezzies from the Philly area interested in potentially having a meet up? I think it might be interesting and nice to meet some like minded Philadelphians (sp?).
