Um, so, I kind of wish this sort of thing was more socially acceptable. As someone who likes being in a serious, long-term relationship yet craves alone time like whoa, I would totally be ok with my BF leaving for a few months. It would give me a chance to miss him, which would be romantic. It would also give me a chance to spend several weekends in a row watching Real Housewives marathons in my underwear while wearing a green face mask and chugging wine from the bottle.
@buzzgirl: The "Of course we all get where they're going with it" makes no sense either, since she skipped explaining the "it." Sloppily edited and hastily put together articles are par for the course around here these days though, and Sadie's in particular make me grumble a lot because I think she's a decent writer when she spends more than two seconds slapping something together.
@summerisnotaverb: This is amazing. "Like a little THUNDERSNOW is gonna stop me from getting a delicious ice cream cone? I laugh in your face, thundersnow. I don't even need a coat, thundersnow, you hear me?" I've never had a hero before. It feels good.

@mallorious: I remember it too! It makes me happy that she's still wearing her super cute coat from last year, despite being rich and having the ability to wear a different coat every day if she chose to do so.
@iamthelaw: This is the most unintentionally hilarious comment ever. "Take a chill pill?" "Gloria???" Awesome.
@Loopa Oompa (latenotnever): Hearted for that great reminder. Have fun tonight and I will do the same!
@VirtuousVixen: Thank you, I think I will. :)
@Loopa Oompa (latenotnever): Okay, that makes sense. I have an irrational fear that the hostess will be secretly judging us for not having plans. I'm so weird.
@memoryhouses: I think the odds are that it will be more uncomfortable/awkward/painful than fun, which is not a good way to set the tone for the new year.
@suck_it_monkeys: Originally we had plans to go see a band we like but that turned out to be a fancy dress ball and I didn't have time to get a dress/ chickened out because it seemed like the kind of thing that would be more fun with a group of friends and no one else wanted to go. Then my sister and her boyfriend were going to come over for a laid-back night of Prosecco, appetizers and Apples to Apples, but their work scheduled changed at the last minute and now they aren't coming over. A good friend invited us over, but my boyfriend would be the only guy there and her party honestly sounded a little depressing for various reasons I won't get into, so I told her we had plans (which we did at the time, kind of).
Yesterday my BF ran into a friend of a friend who invited us to her NYE/30th bday party. I've only met this girl once, very briefly, and our mutual friend won't be there because she's out of town. So, it's a party with a bunch of people I don't know, and I have MEGA social anxiety lately, so this is mildly terrifying. But my boyfriend thinks it will be fun and seems way more excited about it than he does about staying in. And this has rented out an entire bar for her birthday(!), and it happens to be a cool wine bar I really like. To go or not to go???
PS: My only New Year's resolution is to accept more invitations than I decline. Heh.

Should my boyfriend and I party crash tonight? Neurotic pro and conning in the reply.
So should I just bookmark GT and only go to Jezebel through here, in order to receive trigger warnings? Is that what you guys are doing?

@rhymeswithfeather: TJ Maxx/Marshalls/Ross usually have high quality pillows and other bedding for cheap- like Target prices but nice hotel quality.

@MadFab: The very large picture could probably be after the jump instead of on the front page.
@intelly: Oh man. Is her husband or anyone else who's close to her on Facebook? Could you send them a message just saying that you're worried based on your FB interactions? And maybe slowly untag her from things she's tagged herself in and delete some of her weirder comments? Just based on this small glimpse she is definitely unwell. Do you live in the same city?

@LadyFabulous: I am eagerly awaiting my PM. I have no shame. I was also aboard the PM train a year or two ago when someone had lots of dirt on Winona Ryder, and I don't regret it.

@LadyFabulous: Is it too late to board the "Pleeeease PM me with celeb gossip" train? No? Well then choo choo mothatruckers!
@newmakcity: I think it's always had a gross aftertaste- maybe you're just not used to it anymore?
