agreed. if i'm going to eat something that's gonna kill me, it needs to taste better than a twinkie.

For those of you in the greater Philly area, Tastykake now has a twinkie knock off that i am told tastes even better than a twinkie. (Personally, I'm a butterscotch krimpet kind of girl, but to each their own.) Tastykake is superior to Hostess in all ways, including their labor practices.

am i to understand this is not how most people solve their problems?

thanks, it's really good to hear that. overall i'm happy and learning how to live a balanced life, but i have been feeling a little lost since i finished grad school.

i feel this way a lot. i'm broke, and i feel like i might be broke forever, but all things considered i'm doing ok. i'm nervous about my health insurance drying up when i turn 26 next month, but between my two part time jobs maybe i'll be able to scrape by.

with their damned holograms and loud music!

Somewhere in des moines, Dita Von Teese is scarfing down a cinnabon.

oh wow, she looks so ordinary!

i wonder if sometimes she flies to bumblefuck nowhere, skips her makeup, dresses down in some jeans and a hoodie, and just spends the day being totally anonymous. i think if i was famous i would do that.

i'm glad katy perry doesn't pretend to naturally look like that. i'm so tired of celebrities being like, "oh...you know, i drink lots of water and moisturizer every night, that's my whole beauty routine." guys, we know your job is to look good, it's ok for you to admit that you put work into it.

look, i love my cats (and my dog.) i take pictures of them and tell stories about them and shit. they're awesome. but i also work with kids, and there's no comparison between my pets and actual children. my pets are what i come home to to get a break from kids. you sound like a badass, i could never be a stay at home…

agreed. running and chopping vegetables? mostly lame but occassionally wonderful. the results from lots of running and eating vegetables? almost always wonderful. now that i've gotten into the habit of doing both regularly, i don't feel the need to brag so much about it.

people of the world, as a woman 25 years of age, who has been in a monogamous relationship for five years, i have been deemed a slut. i have an official certificate from the webpage and everything. SUCK IT, friends who keep telling me your twenties are for sleeping around and experimenting. I'm a whore after all!

IKR?

Delawhat?

i'm kind of in the same boat, i have only a handful of people i would want at my wedding. my fiance, on the other hand, is irish catholic....so our guest list is more of a family reunion than a balanced wedding.

hm. this might explain why my very informal new jersey wedding is getting so many eyebrow raises from my in-state friends and relatives while the out of state ones think it sounds awesome.

little lady, don't you know you're supposed to lie back, think of wedding dresses, and then never masturbate?

seriously, though, james deen. look up james deen with nicole ray and go from there. i prefer his more vanilla stuff, but that's just me.

i love bouldering but the nearest climbing gym charges $20/an hour, and i just don't have that kind of money to invest in a workout. one day, maybe.

isn't it strange how much we don't know about our own parents? my grandmother is in hospice, and my mom and i have been sorting through her stuff and settling out her final affairs, and it turns out she was an amazing artist. we always knew she liked crafting, but it turns out she had piles of intricately embroidered…

i was at a ropes course, and i was able to do everything on the high ropes course after a month.
