I'm glad to hear that!!

Both Free People and Urban have nice designs, and the most poorly made, overpriced stuff I've ever had. I purchased a pair of linen cargos from FP on sale and they pretty much disintegrated in a month. Thank goodness I only paid $29 and not the $170 they cost originally.

Of course I don't mind, silly!

My experience has taught me that if I exercise moderately, I keep it up.

Yes. Which is why I said her anger was neither misplaced nor inappropriate.

sorry..I responded to someone else in your space!:)

I'm sorry, where did I suggest anyone "ignore" idiots, or say that calling them out was not the right thing to do?

Yes. Which is why I said her anger was neither misplaced nor inappropriate.

I love my Margaret so much, and it gives me a sad to see how tenuous her self esteem still is.

When I was in school, I remember this beautiful girl who came in as a new student one fall. I was mesmerized by her perfection.

I'm curious as to the age difference in your marriage?

IT DOESN'T WRINKLE!

These things take a really long time..as women we are taught from day one to be compliant.

I feel you totally. I used to start shaking and then to my horror, I'd cry, if things got heated in spite of my conciliatory efforts. Real grown up and effective.

Okay, I'm lactating.

I was taught that if you are feeling crazy or guilty in the midst of a conversation with anyone (and you have not, in fact, done anything wrong or insane) it's often because you are being manipulated.

I binge drank every night for 12 years...though "one sitting" was usually 4 hours long.

My girlfriend breast fed her child until he was nearly 5 and it was too, too. weird. The kid was like 3 feet tall, and practically driving. He'd march up to her and was right on a level with her breast. She was tiny, so it looked bizarre.

I think you've hit it squarely on the head/nose with the attitude of entitlement aspect of this.

I love Chelsea, but not as much as I did. Her books are terrific, and I enjoy her talk show at intervals, but she's starting to fray around the edges.
