I see your sad dog and raise you by a depressed golden. Sometimes I wonder if she's got some bloodhound ancestry because her eyebrows are so saggy she looks chronically on the verge of tears. I don't have any pictures of her face available though. She's very hard to take pictures of because she won't hold still. …

Eh... I used to cry at work so often I'd not wear makeup so no one would know. But that was while I was working at a place that was trying to run me out because I have a disability. Now I've got a new job, got some counseling, and know that if I'm ever in a situation like that again to get the hell out. I also…

If they do this... the very day it shows up I'm going to drop a handful more messages onto my friend's feeds along the lines of "I still have those Google+ invites to give out." Thanks Facebook, I appreciate you helping me convince my friends to switch. This may be easier than I anticipated. Bring on the ads!

Totally hearted.

I am behind on my Pony watching. I need to catch up. I really wish I could express my love of My Little Pony in a more coherent sentiment than "they're just awesome", but that's all I can think of right now.

...I want one. Or I need to find a young child that likes Barbies to buy it for. I am totally in love with all things doll house though, probably because I never had one growing up and built my own with cutouts from magazines and cardboard boxes.

Sweeping generalizations based off one's own personal experiences are always accurate, amirite? Personally, the handful of times I've cried at work have been due to reasons completely unrelated to my actual job and I've had the sense to duck into the restroom for ten minutes, wash my face off, and get back to kicking…

I personally love the Nearby stream. There's some very interesting and funny people in my area. Found some neat places to eat at that way too. I can't see myself browsing local stranger's feeds in Facebook anytime soon.

Yanno, I have no idea how cysts would work with an IUD. I've actually never heard of them until I started reading Jez. The OBGYN I see is extremely good but since I'm not sexually active he's also reluctant to experiment because my reaction to hormone changes is so severe. (the last attempt to suppress my cycle…

Thanks for the link, I'll take a look!

I honestly have no idea, but I bet someone could think up an argument along those lines and it'd still sound more credible than the current one he's using.

I may be crazy, but wouldn't less unwanted or unplanned pregnancies also mean less abortions?

"In the paper's defense, the intent of the article is to contradict the the "stereotype of Muslim Americans as an alienated and discontented religious minority.""

Aaaand another article to e-mail to my mother. She seemed to like the Gmail one a few days ago, thanks LH. You're really helping me out here.

I had to reread it a couple times when I read 'parents' as I too expected it'd be directed towards teens. Seems they're the ones more at-risk for being abused. And they really do need to make it cover both genders. Women should not get a pass for this sort of behavior just because they're female or because men are…

And I just got done reading up on laws regarding security deposits to see if I can take my prior landlord to small claims court (the answer is yes)... My motivation is certainly greed (getting my $200 back would be awesome, getting $400 would be even better), but yanno, the law is the law, right?

Yes! Good news to start my morning. She is just so inspiring and while I don't want her to rush into anything she doesn't want to do, I really hope she gives some interviews because I would love to hear what she has to say. I know what happened to her wasn't of her choosing and she is having to live with the…

Good point, I'm going to have to agree with that. If you signed up with no restrictions, they should be honoring that.

I'm glad I'm a card-carrying member of your select group that's allowed to comment then. As a friend to several rape survivors, I take issue with these comments for multiple reasons. They further the idea that rape is 'acceptable' for certain segments of the population: criminals, people who had too much to drink,…

Yes, I've read the comments saying such. I find it disturbing.
