AHA YES! If I had any idea I was making my husband grit his teeth in frustration every single freaking day, I would change whatever it was. Especially when it is something so minor/expected of every grownup. Socks go in the hamper. Towels go on a rack. Shoes go...well, I don't even care where they are, so long as…

For future reference, shaving will result in stubble, which will feel that much worse. Waxing is the way to go for unwanted facial hair. Hopefully you'll never need this info.

I wouldn't want 'reply all' to be a default, except in certain situations. But, yes, your point about "group of people who all need to be kept in the loop" is a very good one. I regularly collaborate with a few different sets of artists/programmers, and we all need to share discussion information. Someone is always…

I never got any weight loss with topamax! I'm really disappointed I didn't at least get that out of it - it did reduce the frequency of my migraines, but after 2 years I went off it because I developed problems with word recall. I'm back to relying on Excedrin + extra caffeine and Maxalt for knocking out my migraines.…

Such a powerful moment! I love that movie version of A Little Princess - it's magical.

Yep, the water here in Southern California tastes like a swimming pool. It's perfectly healthy, but it causes an involuntary gag reflex in me. I seriously don't understand how some people can drink it straight from the tap - or that some restaurants serve it unfiltered. We have a Brita filter attached to our kitchen…

Sigh, yes, this was my feeling around the holidays until we stopped visiting my husband's family. I'm a literal orphan now (Mom and Dad had me in their 40s and have both passed away), so now the only "family" I have are my inlaws, who make nonstop passive-agressive comments about my husband leaving home and moving to…

This might be what gets me to put up Christmas lights. Has anyone actually tried it on stucco?

I do! Claritin, every day. I think this is the breakthrough discomfort that nothing will stop, minus me moving to Antartica where there is no pollen in the air.

I have the WORST habit of rubbing my eyes and my nose a lot without realizing it. I think it's allergies. I need to break this habit like yesterday.

I always take the shampoos & conditioners home with me - perfect to take to the gym shower. They last a surprisingly long time - at least a month. I guess I just don't use a lot. Or maybe I should work out more.

Yes, at the really nice hotels I've stayed in, the bathrobes are hung up and ready for use, but there is a discrete card that says you will be charged $75-100 if you want to take it home with you. Errhgh, why would I pay the new price for a used bathrobe? I have a lovely plush one of my own at home that no one else…

It's only those little ones that give me trouble - they manage to float around and escape the general current of water going down my throat. After taking tons of medication in different forms since my early adulthood, I can now take a handful of pills at a time with one swig of water or coffee in the morning. But the…

I did use the Target 5% back offers for a while when I got my prescriptions filled there - but I had to admit to myself at some point that it was encouraging mindless extra spending on my part. I swear every time I went to pick up my prescriptions, there would be one that wasn't filled, so I'd wander around the store…

A few years ago, I was in Manhattan consulting with a plastic surgeon to get a breast reduction. He was the best of the best, so I traveled there to make sure it was done right. His office was in a swanky part of town. I was wearing a nice crewneck sweater and slacks, and he wrote in my chart "Patient is clean and…

I had the chest-minimizing-hunched posture too. Took a whole year of yoga before I could walk with my shoulders back, and even now I'll catch myself hunching forward.

Sadly, this absolutely does not work for me. Doesn't matter what clothes I'm wearing/ glasses or contacts/ make-up or not/have a cold, they don't care. I'm undeniably female and so I'm going to be a target for this BS.

I wear saddle shoes all the time and feel great about it. If you want to do it, do it! For a few years in the 90s, Hush Puppies made some gorgeous suede saddle shoes in different colours. Now I just get regular old black and whites on Amazon.

I must have had his brother for Animal Physiology (same light-blue Western shirt with chalk stains in the armpits and tan khakis every day).
