Nice! I’m getting one!

Hello friends! I am in need of some advice: A friend from college is getting married and invited me to her wedding. She did not, however, include my Special Somebody in the invitation. We’ve been dating for 3 years and our relationship is serious (we’re thinking we’ll be married within the next 2-3 years), but I…

I didn’t have any plans at ALL this weekend and was actually a little bummed about it. But, one of my friends came into town unexpectedly yesterday and we had a really fun night with a few other people at the bars (I killed it in both pool and darts which never happens) and today ate some authentic Chinese and went…

It’s Harry Potter night! My local bookstore is doing a midnight release party. I’m taking my kid because I’m probably insane. Needed something fun to do after spending all week looking after my sick doggy. Stupid osteosarcoma.

I’m not sure what it says about me or about him, but I thought Billy Ray Cyrus was Rob McElhenney pretending to be Billy Ray Cyrus.

Oh No They Didn’t. Popular gossip site that account for 80% of today’s English Livejournal traffic.

Devastating. Sending you huge hugs and sympathy.

because it wasn’t the “golden age of television”, where every show was overwrought with twists and turns and huge hollywood names who haven’t been huge hollywood names in a while. in the late 80s and early 90s, this is what we got. and we loved it for what it was—hilariously awful television.

Guy I dated in late high school/early college was a pastor’s kid in a similar fundy-type religion. His older sister had gotten whoops-pregnant with an older douchebag dude she had only been with a couple weeks when my boyfriend was in about middle school (they got married right away, and the kid was 4 by the time the…

Yup...! I had some baptist relatives who used to give me Chick Tracts that had all sorts of fun ‘science’ lessons about how Satan put fossils out just to confuse us and how they had totally found the remains of Noah’s Ark (among other awful things like why its ok to hate gay people). No idea why my parents were cool…

I got almost the same BS from the Jehovah’s Witnesses.

You got out of all this. Now consider there are grown-ass adults who not only propagate this kind of BS but fervently believe it.

Looking for ideas. I need a winter wardrobe solution. In the summer, I’ve discovered my perfect clothing option: knit dresses. It feels like wearing pajamas, but it looks like you’ve made an effort. What is the winter equivalent? Going from my knit dresses to jeans is bumming me out. Again, the goal is to feel like…

The best way to cook a turkey. You’re welcome.

Many people don't get it. Thanks for the support! I hope you find comfort as well.

I haven't watched because I know it would trigger me. And it's not just the anxiety I want to avoid but also 2-3 days of puking. I'm so happy with the topic tonight because it allows me to both cry and laugh.

You’re not alone. I often feel this way after attacks. Boston was the worst because I have family there and I had to tell a student that his cousin and her new husband were injured, but alive.

Can’t find the nails, and his assistants are too afraid to tell him the box is right in front of him on the counter.

They used the animation and not the song from Skeleton Dance in Disney’s Halloween Treat when I was a kid in the 80s. It was compilation of all different Halloween or scary themed Disney stuff. I had taped it off tv on a VHS and watched it all year. Seeing the clip now makes me want to go find it on YouTube. (and the…
