Some rules I use with my teams at work:

This is why, when I went for the ultrasound for my second pregnancy, I crossed my fingers and repeated, “please don’t be twins, please don’t be twins...” I could barely justify working with two kids in daycare, but three kids would have meant quitting my job.

Well, at least it was a side view and not from the doc’s point of view. When I clicked on this story I feared I'd see some smiling dumbass father and a ripped open vag. Glad I was only half right.

I used to play this gag on my mom as a kid. I got away with it more times than I should have.

Disclaimer: didn’t watch the video.

What’s the logic of computing this per household? I’m twenty points higher in the list when counting my husband’s salary, but we have twice the expenses. Hmmm....

After reading about the birthday night:

Damn. I hope not everyone can read Facebook statuses like that.

Meh, I married a (now former) coworker. What could go wrong? /s

I’m sorry... Upon reread, I’m Judgy McJudgerson. You’re right - there are many people who benefit from and need Rx’s to live. Obviously there’s back story here about my mom, but I shouldn’t have thrown that comment out there without that relevant context.

Halle Berry.

While I understand where you’re coming from, I also think age is a number.

38 DD speaking here: Underwire sports bras with back clasp are where it’s at. My favorite is from Champion, but a billion years old, so I don’t remember the model.

From a young age, Mormon kids in Sunday school (they call it Primary) must bear their testimony. Imagine little kids explaining how they know God and the Book of Mormon to be true. Then fast forward a couple years to those kids choosing to be baptized. I’d guess those kids think they’ve chosen this just as they chose…

Still a better deal than the popcorn the Boy Scouts are hawking.

Can someone give me the Cliff Notes version of the Sister Wives thing? I'm embarrassed to google, but I'm oddly interested in these people.

Do other states do mail-in ballots? I mean for people other than those who will be absent Election Day? Colorado does mail-in, and it’s the best way to do it. You can vote at your convenience when you can research the candidates and issues, in your underwear if you so choose, and drop your ballot off at the nearest…

I voted for Nader in 2000 precisely because of the shitty electoral system. I was (at the time) a resident of a very red state, and since I was going to piss away my presidential vote anyway, I might as well piss it away on Nader.

No, not cici’s (sp?). Definitely not cici’s. Yuck.

A pizza place recently opened up by my office and serves (among other things) macaroni and cheese pizza. I told them if they had been around when I was pregnant, I would have eaten it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. And a couple snacks too. And fuck yeah, I'd still have kids cereal for dessert.
