I tell them, “If I had the winning ticket do you think I’d sell it to you? “

Edwina Grimley?

Oh, I’m so sorry. I wish I hadn’t seen my mom the night she died of cancer. Some things can’t be unseen and I see no reason to subject ourselves to it.

At my husband’s service my deranged sister in law got to the funeral home before I did. Front and center behind the podium was a very large picture of him and his highschool prom date. He had just committed suicide and I was in no condition to argue. I can’t imagine what everyone at the service thought and I no longer…

My boyfriend’s ex was killed in a horrific auto accident a few ago. Her young adult children insisted they had to see her. Everyone (including the coroner) advised against it but they just had to do it. I don’t know how they are dealing with that. I refused to see my husband “one last time” after he killed himself. I…

La Plata county is podunk. I’m not surprised at all. I live in a similarly podunk county and we get the worst cops. Morons fresh out of the academy.

Oh, I’d have him read me a bedtime story alright. *pant, pant*

We had a middle school librarian who we all knew was taking liberties with the girls. It amazes me to this day that no-one cared enough to do anything about it. We also had a swim coach having an affair with a girl in my highschool class. These predators make me ill. absolute total fucking scum.

Yeah, I’m from one and live outside the other. Colorado is not the Midwest. Cowboys, ranches and occasionally(at least in my neck of the woods) people in public wearing spurs. It’s the west.

Call everything east of Denver what it is. Hell.

I’m really old. I remember Mary Tyler Moore’s hair flip.

We rollerskated in the street and in our unfinished basement. Another One Bites The Dust, My Sharona, good times..

Oh god, you just dredged that song up from the depths of my memory. The neighbor girl got the Xanadu album for her birthday and played it incessantly.

I would guinea pig that kid but I’m a vegetarian. Anyone call dibs?

Love-Thicke would be even better.

Thank you. Lyon is my maiden name and I always told people that I was a single Lyon, not a group.

Me too.

My mom once told me that all she had ever asked was that she would live to see her grandkids(her mother died at 29). It didn’t happen as she died at 44 but she did see me make it to 22. I have missed her every day for the last 24 years. On rare occasions I laugh and instead of hearing myself I hear her. My condolences…

Mine crocheted. I’ve got a beautiful queen sized bedspread packed away. Can’t use it because of the dogs. I miss playing cards with her.

That’s hilarious. Mine worked in clothing at the north Chicago Navy Exchange so I got some decidedly odd clothing gifts for a kid my age. I remember a sparkly, one shoulder sweater(hot pink), a set of terry cloth shorts with side ribbons that could be tied more tightly to make them even higher cut(also hot pink) and…
