I like forest greens and plums with a bit of orange to accessorize. It turns out really well and looks sophisticated.

No, Love Actually is amazing. It has a bunch of good actors and clearly had a lot of thought and care put into it, though.

I have not tried these vodkas, but would prefer not to re-enact a scene from college I am often reminded of by friends who were there that involved me chasing someone with a bottle of Stoli Vanilla down the street screaming "Bring me back my birthday cake!"

Man I don't like seeing ANYONE Photoshopped to pieces, but stop taking out all the sexy creases on 50 year old hot actors. First George, now Viggo. This needs to stop!

Man, I really messed up that 8 months old I used to sit for by watching Fight Club with him, didn't I?

At least it is the name of a kickass amazing character, not...Bella Swan.

My fiance has talked me into Russian names (neither of us are in any way Russian), so here's hoping Ivan and Wasily don't get super-popular anytime soon...

As someone who has lived with *no* middle name and a first name that was hugely trendy at the time and is all over my age group, I plan to give my kids two middle names, at least one of which will be some weird hippy nonsense. That way they have something cool to use and something to quietly forget to write down if

Zeros are horrible to me. My fiance loves Coke Zero; I guess it's SUPPOSED to taste like a regular Coke, but yeah it tastes like regular Coke + extra sugar to me. I'll take my medicine-y Diet Coke, thanks.

Around Passover time, look for 2-liters of Coke with yellow caps. They're made with sugar. (I'm not Jewish and I don't know the full protocol, but corn is a no for Passover apparently.)

My dishes are all dark red. My table is light butcher block. I'm pretty much done for on spaghetti night, aren't I.

I only watched the first movie (with Rifftrax, thank god) but I certainly did not note any Bechdel Test-passing.

I actually freaking love their nail polish. The fast dry varieties have the best brushes I have ever used (and i have plenty of pricey nail polishes to compare them to), it goes on smooth and has a nice finish, and so long as you use a decent base & topcoat and wrap the tips, nail polish "lasting" doesn't come into

I always liked Hooters in college because they would serve me alcohol before I was 21. I'd go with my gay roommate (also not 21) and I'd drink Yuenglings and he'd drink chardonnay and all the waitresses would sit at our table and chat with us.

I'm going to be left for a Rubbermaid tote full of Legos...

I personally have never had squirrel, but my mother tells me that when she was little her grandfather would shoot them and bring them home for her grandmother to cook; they would give her the COOKED SQUIRREL HEAD and let her SUCK OUT THE BRAIN. Apparently this was a classic kids' meal. Ugh.

We had our work potluck yesterday (with 50-60 dishes and 70-80 people, our fridges are stuffed with leftovers today and I already made my turkey sandwich for lunch) and I made my Midwest family's favorite, a potato dish with sour cream, cheddar cheese, butter, and cream of chicken soup. People who work on the other

"Shockingly vulvas are NOT all rainbows, butterflies and a fresh morning mist."

I don't really recall sex ed, as I'd had an older friend give me this book [www.amazon.com] previously. That book is great and I'd recommend it for any middle or high school girl; it explains everything from periods to sex to weird hormone feelings.

Ugh you weren't kidding about not googling that...
