More e-hugs. I’m a somewhat introverted person and don’t have a lot of friends to begin with. And most of my closest “friends” (acquaintances, perhaps?) are male. My mom is clueless about babies (she seems almost amnesiatic about it), and I have no sisters and no sisters-in-law that can relate. When I had my daughter,…

Fucking bear. I worked for the architecture firm that did the convention center, and word was the artist’s inspiration was a pose-able children's bear toy. That's it. Some dumb fucking toy.

I could watch this all day long. And just might.

Is Sizzler still around? I haven't seen one since I was a kid - at which time it was AWESOME. I'm sure my opinion won't have changed over the last 25 years...

Someone posted a link last week on Jez or Gawker that was Obama in a Town Hall where a gun shop owner asked why he and Hillary are trying to take guns away. His response was first, no we’re not, but then he went into an anecdote about a guy the FBI was watching who was on ISIS websites, an American citizen, and they…

I'm a 37 year old architect - I've been licensed for 10+ years - and every day I prove that I don't know shit. I plan to hit my stride around 60.

I must be the female counterpart to you non-bruising guys. I bruise like a week-old banana. Always have. I can usually recollect a cause - oh yeah I bumped into a chair - but even the smallest impact causes a bruise so it's easy to forget. I was in a mild car accident once and had a bruise the size of a football for a…

The sound of him beating the water out of his brush it one of my happy sounds.

Former Utahn here: I concur with mou-EN. Lay-EN (Layton) by the mou-EN.

When I first started working out, I’d wear a normal underwire bra for lift and a sports bra to smush it all down.

Not surprised to see Prague. I studied there for a half semester, we were warned about the rampant pick pocketing and I saw it first-hand two or three times. One failed attempt was by a guy on a crowded streetcar with a jacket draped over his forearm and hand... He must have missed his mark because a woman started…

Or fire.

My eye doctor as a kid (I have had glasses since I was 10), thought my mom’s name was Gayle (it’s not... at all) and that she was an actor in community theater (even more not at all). Even from a young age I knew to just roll with it. If he asked if she'd been in plays lately, I was to say, oh no, not recently... But…

According to a bumper sticker I saw in Moab in the early-nineties: “Real Jeeps have round headlights”. YJs have always been the red-headed stepchild.

I'm no botanist, so maybe I've missed some of these options when hunting kindling, but I always thought dead pine needles were the best. They can't be green, but if you find any pine branches that have fallen from the tree, you'll have a good source of pine needles.

There was even a pair of clippers in the guest bathroom, you know, where normal people clip their toenails.

I recently bought a quality knife set that included kitchen shears. I use the shears for snipping fresh herbs or opening food packages. I feel like such a grown up using the proper tool for the job.

Surprise: you'll poop on the delivery table.

The bill for my (27-hour long) induction resulting in an (eventual) vaginal birth was around $25k, and that was six years ago. I paid a $800 copay and nothing more. My HMO sometimes sucks, but at least I didn’t get dinged for all of that.

I'm sure Bey could loan her some fake bellies.
