I think we may have a new "nope nope nope" gif.

I remember a stand-up comedian who once said that he'd next like to grow two perfect circles of hair on his face - one on each cheek.

But, but, but! Don't people like, die of cancer waiting for that chemo because there's like only one chemo machine in all of Ottawa?

My 7-year-old offers this antidote:

Hmm, interesting. I am an introvert and prone to anxiety and mild depression. And I do find that one of the things that helps me out of a slump is to force myself to focus my energies on others. Like, acknowledge mindfully that I am in one of those moods, that there isn't anything I can do, don't fight it, etc. But

I know, right? After I gave birth to my first baby I spent those couple of days in the hospital feeling and looking like I'd been hit by a truck. Not to mention, all the gross stuff your body is doing postpartum (google it if you don't know - every woman who has given birth knows of what I speak). I can't imagine

Fun fact: for most women, the uterine contractions that help snap everything back in place are often triggered by putting the baby on the breast, feel like menstrual cramps, and get more painful with each subsequent baby. Yay!

I guess maybe some people never get it together enough to carry some on them? I can't imagine she doesn't have any at home. I remember it took me a while to realize that, in addition to carrying a couple in my purse at all times, I should probably just buy a box and put them in my desk at work. I have a Mirena, now,

It can vary a lot.

I'm in Ontario, Canada. Although I did it all the time on a vacation to Florida and Puerto Rico and no one

I, for one, would thoroughly enjoy pictures like that. I once saw an interview clip with Dave Grohl at Woodstock 1999 and he kept surreptitiously pulling back a curtain to reveal U2 at some sort of press conference on the other side. You could only see them from behind, so he said, "hee hee! Let's have another look at

Title should be "How One Girl Stole Matt Damon's Toilet Paper in Morocco."

It's official. The last few days have gotten hot enough that I've abandoned my blowouts, both because the heat and humidity will make them pointless and also as a kindness to my family and air conditioning bills. Being the professional lady that I am, I can't really do super-messy, but yesterday I pulled my

Well, there's Zevia, that pop made with stevia, but there does not seem to be a clear answer on whether stevia's that much better for you than sucralose or aspartame. You could do fruit-infused water. I do lemon water all the time at home but I have a very pretty pin on Pinterest imploring me to try putting berries

Go for it. It's been cheering me up a lot lately.

Baby the Umbrella Cockatoo endorses this suggestion at 2:05.

Giggling like a maniac at 'mandals'. There are two pairs right now in the office across from mine. I'm a horrible person because office mandals do weird me out. And I had open-toed shoes on today, too!

Agreed. I recently attended the wedding of a friend who saw a fairly serious relationship end around age 30. A couple of years later, she met the man she just married - they did not meet over the internet, either.
