When I first met my husband many, many years ago we had no money so after work we stayed inside a lot and watched TV and listened to CDs (pre-Internet) and had sex. This was one of our favorites while we were still standing up.
I hope you go! Cozy up to those Italian friends. I have no roots in Italy but I’ve been several times. I think in a previous life I must have been Italian. I have sprezzatura.
Where do you live that the shelters aren’t full of dogs waiting for adoption? That’s my dream but the reality is here in New York the scandal-plagued big shelter takes in animals (Animal Care & Control) and just euthanizes them after a few days. It’s a very New York City approach to problems, just hope the problem…
Do you have any advice about gently easing your way out of the lives of your siblings?
Ah, Langer’s! A friend of mine used to work really close by and would go there almost every day at odd hours. From the staff he learned passable Yiddish and Spanish.
I admire teachers so much, and there seem to be so many here at Jezebel.
Are you allowed to tape lectures? I have this weird ability to recall conversations in the minutest detail. I would have made a good ancient Greek and would have been able to recite the Iliad from memory if I had heard it once from Homer.
Tell your friend you’ll get back to her when she finally completes her degree in internal medicine from an accredited medical school (not Trump University.) And then tell her that even then she can’t ethically see you because doctors giving care to friends and family members is frowned upon.

Your mother believes residential architecture post-80s is better than what came before it? That’s amazing. Do your parents live in an HOA gated community or something? Even if you look at a stereotypical “Levittown” you’ll see that the houses are snug (and built onto, as they were meant to be) and usually…
Where can we put the poor people? Did your Dad say in decent, affordable housing with public transit options so that they can find work? Or did he go for the Dickensian workhouse/debtor’s prison option?
I actually have two different accounts here at Jezebel, one I’ve had for a long time, I’m in the black, I star people all the time, I bring people out of the grays, and this one, that I created to use on a different computer because I never saved my burner key for the other one.
I worked at a company like yours. It was like being on the bridge of the “Titanic” in the wheelhouse and the captain saying, “We’ll just rub up against the iceberg and push it out of our way.”
Talking to the guy who has many insights to share about the merits and flaws of all the Star Trek movies.
Joanna lives in Brooklyn; that’s probably one of her neighbors.
Did you ever see the episode of “Family Guy” where the Pope is speaking in Boston but lands in Providence and Peter kidnaps him? He’s driving and is maintaining this fiction that they’re actually in Boston. Peter points to a couple of shacks by the side of the highway and says, “Look, and that’s Harvard!” And the Pope…
When is someone going to suggest she needs an exorcism?
