You are a brave soul.

Oh god, I know work is going to be brutal as election season intensifies. I am the closeted liberal at my job, and we see lots of very vocal conservative customers on a daily basis who bring shit up out of nowhere. I’m going to have to be Switzerland if I want to keep my job. But some things just can’t stand...

More like gals pals for Shaw and Root though, if you know what I mean.

Pairing Not Your Father’s Root Beer with mac and cheese because I am a grown ass woman and not a very tall 7 year old.

This is an A++ solution.

Interesting! Sometimes we find strength and healing in unexpected ways. I hope you’re in a better place with the evil ex now.

I imagine it felt like an attack after her last experience. Still can’t make sense of the satan bit though...

Yeah, I’m kind of impressed/incredulous that she says she’s still committed to giving. I think she’d have every right to be on the defensive after all this. I haven’t even had a negative experience like this with a homeless person, but my guard is already up being approached unsolicited by any man.

I am depressed. Work is going to be 8 solid hours of mourning tomorrow.

Yay! It feels great, highly recommended.

Yeah, that’s the hard part. You can look at million pictures and pick and choose what you want, but you never know exactly how it will look on you until you try it. Good luck, I recommend giving it a shot!

OH GOSH HEY THANKS.

It’s what I live for, really. I can’t wait for the day when it comes out to my coworkers that I’m bisexual or, even worse, an atheist. The pearl-clutching will be tremendous.

Oh that is genius! Did you love the change?

Thank you!!

I am dreadful at compromising, both because I’m an only child (which totally sounds like an excuse, but it really did have a huge hand in shaping my personality) and because I fear conflict (which might also be the result of being an only child?). Either I have to have it my way completely, or I can’t stand up for…

I laughed until I cried reading that essay! I really need to just keep the link on hand to send to people whenever they mention their fitbit, because none of my descriptions do it justice.

My mother is the most passive-aggressive person I have ever known, and I’m worried it will be one of those things I pick up from her without even realizing it. I think we all do it sometimes, but I’m realllly trying to stay on top of it.

It does not get any better than a twelve year-old thinking you are cool. They don’t think ANYTHING is cool.

Worth the risk! She’s just so nice to look at.
