Every kiss begins with Kay...Y jelly smeared on an ice cold speculuuuum.
It's hard to sustain the note that long, but I think it is still a very convincing jingle.
First, there's a great novel called "The Divorce Party" by Laura Dave that is all about this. Recommended read, for sure.
Second, my parents are going through a divorce right now after almost 30 years. I don't see them doing a joint party, but I imagine they'll both have their own respective get-togethers to celebrate something much desired, long needed. Hell, I'd have a blast at both parties if I were invited. In my parents case, the divorce really is a cause for celebration and happiness all around. (Except for my grandparents, who are pretty conservative.)
Tuesdays won't be the same without your GG recaps. Unless you do them at your new job, in which case Tuesdays will be very similar to the way they were. I hope.
Best wishes!
They were hawking these babies in Prague less than a week after MJ died. I don't know what the smaller dolls were. The other Jacksons? Children? His nose?
Intern Katy, that last sentence was such a zinger, I gasped out loud at my desk. Nice writing.
And yeah, what an ass.
Since I don't get HBO, does anybody know how I could get a copy of this? Looks like it's all illegal downloads online and no dvds.
Dude, she looks THE SAME with makeup and without. We all do. It is such a myth that we can make ourselves look significantly better or worse than we naturally are. If you have a professional stylist, maybe. But the average woman looks the same. It's just a placebo.
@baraqiel: I agree up to a point, but here's where your analogy breaks down, in my opinion: Say you are a vegetarian working at a vegetarian restaurant. All of a sudden, the government mandates that all restaurants serve meat. You're going to be pissed, right? And try to get out of serving it? Would you quit? What if you had spent years--possibly decades--at this restaurant and didn't have many transferable skills?
Toughie. I really do feel for people in this position, even if I disagree with them.
@raineoffire: I think PS was using the term ironically. Feel free to go jump on Bananagram's back, however.
At any rate, yay! Warm fuzzies from a midwestern ex-pat.
@seat_5a: YES. Thank you.
Dave and Pat in the mornaaang! KDW...B!
And then later, they got Lee Valsvick up in there. Good times.
@amowls: Yeah, I was super shocked to see a defense of personal morality on the job on this site, too. To me, it seems beyond hypocritical to say doctors can get out of abortions but pharmacists can't. Have it one way or the other, but not both.
I just want to quickly chime in that I had a fantastic experience in single sex high school, and I think separating out at 6th grade instead of 9th would have been even better.
And while I have trouble with dealing with the menfolk, I think that's a me thing, not a school thing.
Naomi, your bacon bra has clearly gone moldy. Did you forget to refrigerate between uses?
I got a new job that keeps me very busy, so I haven't been commenting much, BUT: HERE, HERE, SADIE! YES, THIS!! Someone please draft a memo and send to salons.
Simon's face is my face after reading this article. WTF.
That Scholastic thing is such bull. I only ever bought puppy posters and a biography (unauthorized!) of Adam Sandler from the Book Club, and now I work in children's publishing and LOVE READING. Just because they're peddling some crap along with the books doesn't mean there's not a good reason for it. If any reluctant reader picks up a copy of the Golden Compass because it comes with a necklace, it's a WIN.
Fer pete's sake, people. Let's worry about the myriad truly harmful influences in kids' lives, shall we?
@laundryday: Oh yeah. This.
@badmutha: I see that point, but and I've got no problem with people on Wall Street or what have you making a gazillion dollars--unless it's from a bailout. And I think you CAN tell people "tough cookies." If it weren't for the bailout, they'd be out of a job and have NO salary.
If you can't make it on $400,000 a year, you have some serious life reevaluation to do. Especially when it is a GIFT from millions of people who make a fraction of that.
McCaskill, I think I love you.
