“You old troll” will now replace my old favorite “sea hag.” Thank you for that.

Sorry not sorry that I know this...Milania is the child of Joe and Teresa Guidice of Real Housewives of New Jersey fame. Also a holy terror who is highly amusing being that I don't have to deal with that child IRL.

Co-sign. I’ve got a pediatric/NICU nurse and a neuro nurse in my family. Both compassionate, dedicated people...the kind you’d want saving your ass (or your child). A couple bad apples don't spoil the whole profession.

I grew up in Connecticut and all schools had a nurse. They passed out meds or provided the sniff test to see if you were actually legit sick and needed to go home. I should add, I am an Old (at least by Jez standards) at age 39. Things could be different now, with budget cuts and whatnot.

Couch goals.

As a woman, I have always felt “broken” when it comes to babies. Sure, some are very cute, but I feel more internal “SQUEEE!” towards puppies and kittens than I do babies. No worries, I’m not having any children.

Fellow 30-something checking in. I don’t know your budget, but Anthropologie has super cute dresses and all sale items are an extra 40% off this weekend. Boden is another good place for dresses. For in-person shopping, I gave been extremely successful finding dresses at Marshalls.

1. You’re so pretty! 2. Damn, braces are so low profile these days! Dare I say they are cute! I had braces back in the early 90s and they were gigantic compared to your itty bitty braces. I wish you a future of straight teeth and pain free orthodontist appointments!

I found a product that has pretty much changed my face: Dermalogica Skinperfect Primer. It costs roughly a thousand dollars (slight exaggeration) for a tube the size of my pinky finger but OMG you guys... I am in my late 30s and have always had some under eye circles. This primer is tinted, so on super pale people…

Been there, done that. I never had a deep longing for kids. I know women who squee “OH MY OVARIES” when they see cute kids or babies. Me? I feel nothing towards them, never have. I was never against having children but I was never for it either. My husband was similarly ambivalent. Fast forward to now, where I am 39…

Yes! Now Kit (not Kat) went and overdid the facial work (surgery or just shit tons of Botox and fillers?) and hosts daytime Access Hollywood.

In order, my favorite seasons were the first NYC, Boston, then Hawaii. I checked out after the hot mess that was Chicago.

I wish we had IDGAF Obama for all 8 years of his presidency, but I’ll take what I can get.

I’m a salaried worker and haven’t had a strict half hour for lunch since I worked retail back in college. I eat at my desk because I always bring my lunch from home and our company lunchroom is sad and kind of gross, but I don’t work while I eat. I surf the web, chat with coworkers, etc. Sometimes lunch is 30 minutes,…

You know that Muslims can be white, right? You can't tell a Muslim from their skin color any more than you can identify a Catholic from their skin color.

I can’t help but read Joey Fatone’s name as JOEY FAT-ONE. Once I saw it I couldn't unsee it.

Flagpole Sitta IS MY JAM.

YES! I am 39. My 30s kicked my 20s ass...at the time I thought my 20s were pretty great. You’re still young enough in your 30s, but old enough to have a self awareness and confidence that 20s can only dream about. I snicker to myself when I hear people in their 20s crow about turning 30. Girl, you don’t even know that…

I expect to come here one day and read a similar scenario involving Marc Jacobs and Angel Barta.

I made the “ricotta” from scratch but it was super easy! I used the recipe for “Vegan Lasagna with Basil Cashew Cheeze” from the blog Oh She Glows for inspiration. I doubled their “Basil Cheeze” for the ricotta portion of the lasagna. I used the veg called for in their lasagna minus the mushrooms plus I added 1 lb. of…
