Dream-me once turned down dream-Ewan McGregor for the same reason. I was annoyed with my husband for the entire day after that.

I’ve been snapped at in the middle of the night for turning pages too loudly. He has earplugs. He just needs better ones.

I have an aunt who is 20 years younger than my father for the same reason. My grandmother was about 4 months along when she realized it wasn't menopause after all.

They just released an album together.

I love her and her work ridiculously. She’s definitely one to follow (and anyone who’s sex- and woman- and good-storyline-positive should definitely check out her work.)

While making a nostalgic photo album for my best friend, I photoshopped Duran Duran’s heads onto all the groomsmen from my first wedding. (80s Duran. I married John. Don’t know why that didn’t work out... Shoulda gone for Roger. He’s much more stable.)

My husband and I met on his message boards a long, long time ago. It was a hell of a community (lots of us are still on fb together and I know of at least 3 marriages and several children who resulted from that place). So I’ll always have a major soft spot for him.

We have three bank accounts: his, mine, ours. He makes about twice what I do (IT is much more lucrative than nonprofit), so we pay bills proportionately and throw set amounts into the joint account. It works well. Neither of us gets judgey about the other’s spending habits and we have few money arguments. He usually…

I’m unashamedly Nintendo’s bitch. I’ve been playing on their systems since the original nes (which displaced my Atari) because they consistently deliver great games that fit my gaming style. I haven’t bought a playstation since the ps2 because they don’t.

The shipping sucks. Trust me. And a box of Lucky Charms around here (NL) is €9.50. I’ve had my mother mail me frosted mini wheats and cinnamon life before. (Among other stuff, because nobody is going to pay $20 to ship a $4 box of cereal.)

I have eyes that are basically little sprinklers embedded in my face and I’ve had the best experience with the Full n Soft waterproof mascara. And I had sworn off drugstore makeup because it’s too easy to hoard and was almost always disappointing.

The WiiU will play Wii games, just like the Wii would play Game Cube games. They’ve been pretty good with backwards compatibility for the last couple of generations.

Yes! In the land where almost all common cheese is some form of Gouda (NL), some days I would kill for some pepper jack.

As a fellow ODU graduate, yeah. That's a likely scenario. Another could be just random assholes.

I have a great rear-shot of the Venus di Milo from a similar trip. Rings of tourists in the front, snapping away, while everyone had ignored the Nike of Samothrace, which was much more impressive.

I only really saw them in small leather goods for the last several years, which is where they’re still cute. Make up bag? Adorable. Speedy? Not so much.

I’ve been calling them “loo-loo-lulemon” in my head and only just now realized I’ve been adding an extra “loo”. So. Um. Solidarity?

On the next really bright, sunny day, open it up so as much of the lining is exposed as possible and set it in the full sun for a few hours. It may take a couple of sessions, but it makes a huge difference.

I don’t know about the article, but there’s a place near me that has the most realistic fake meats I’ve come across yet (they’re Dutch, but maybe there’s something similar outside NL).

They’re perfect airplane reading. I actually usually take trashy/juicy memoirs on long flights. Schwarzenegger’s was surprisingly good, Slash’s was brutally honest, and Rod Stewart is into trains. Who knew?
