The albuterol inhalers that cost me between $35 and $50 apiece in the US (depending on if they were generic or not) are EUR 12.50/$15 in NL, when I pay for them out of pocket. When I don't, that's still the cost that shows up in my insurance overviews, so I also know there's no weird price-fixing going on depending on…

I've read it in quite a few places, though I'm too lazy to hunt for sources right now (I'm still on my first coffee of the day). Something about them being frozen right away keeps them, and their vitamin content) fresher. And they're cheaper, which helps.

I'll second Big Fish. He's just so appealing in it. Or Long way Around for real Ewan. Mmmmm.

I hadn't thought of Ultima II in YEARS! I used to have this amazing eye shadow palette that lasted forever.

My husband and I do the same. He makes more than twice what I do, though, but we split the bills/expenditures by income and throw it into the joint account. Simplified numbers are basically 1/3 me 2/3 him. It's a partnership. He's just the partner in a more lucrative field.

It's been a long time. Besides, if he hadn't panicked, I wouldn't be where I am now. And I'm happy with my life. And my mom is happy with my ring. We all win! (Except maybe the ex.)

Honestly? We got married because we'd been together a few years and it felt like that was the next step. We had relationship issues, a lot of them because he knew his parents would solve his problems for him, so he was careless with money and people, and he needed to do some growing up. His reasoning for the freakout…

My situation was close enough, I guess. Anyway, the marriage lasted 5 whole weeks before he freaked out about actually being married (my groomzilla didn't think about what happens after the wedding). We kept our own rings. We returned what presents we could, and split the rest by whose family/friends they came from.

I bought it from the Wii shop a long time ago- not remastered, of course, but good enough to play on a large screen. Unless they've quit selling it in advance of the new version, it's like 10 bucks.

A lot of the time, driving loafers have that spot of rubber dot things on the back/bottom of the heel, too, so you don't wear out the back bottom bit of the back of your shoe.

We're also totally different from each other. If we weren't romantically involved, we probably wouldn't even be friends, but we totally get along really well.

It's more common in people who work with radiation, if that helps.

I had a colleague who, while pregnant with identical twins, got pregnant AGAIN, WHILE ALREADY PREGNANT, with a third, who was 3 months behind the other two. So the twins were born by C-section when they were almost ripe and their brother was born a few months later.

I threw mine out while sitting on the toilet, then hobbled to the bed in a sort of sitting/shuffling position (no pants!), where I stayed, humiliated...

You're welcome!! They have a sale going right now and I'm resisting for all I'm worth. (I'm trying not to spend much because I have a family visit coming up.)

Duo sells boots by calf measurement! And they're cute! Pricey, so I just have one pair right now, but I've been wearing the hell out of them because they're BOOTS and they FIT.

I read the Mordant's Need books and loved them, so branching out to the Thomas C books was especially disappointing. They're just so...uninteresting.

It's happened at least since the 80s - I went to junior high with this kid:

It's a four-hour train trip, not intercontinental travel.

Mine, too. It's categorized as porn :(
