I at least… Read more
My aunt wore the pantsuit version of that blush pink dress to her fourth wedding. The pants were kinda flared out at the outer thigh like riding pants, and were assymetrical at the hem. On second thought, I'm pretty sure it was a jumpsuit, because that is much dressier and proper for a wedding. Read more

Amen. After my second adoption leave, I cried with joy and relief when I went back to my desk. At the office, I know things, I get things done, and I can pee with the door shut. Love my kids fiercely, but I love that part of me that shines at the office. And when my daughter talks about being a mommy and having an… Read more
I needed to read this. I am an adoptive mom to two, a stepmom to two more, and a stepgrandma. And the intense love and pride and exhaustion is there for all of them, regardless of bloodlines.

Ask them if they realize every time they crack an egg they are causing a chicken abortion. Probably even a scrambled abortion. Read more
When he was still selling furs, he also managed their ad copy. He met Betty when she modeled for them, and he bought her a fur. I assume she fell for him because she had graduated college without a proposal and she was getting antsy, then she really fell for him when her Main Line parents were so awful about his lack… Read more
We were driving thru the Midwest yesterday, and saw all these cows standing in ponds with only their heads sticking out. The calves by the bank were just so cute, wanting to get in but not too sure about it. Read more

I fell out of the habit of reading it when I started feeling sorry for some of the women, like Bai Ling. But I do miss their commentary. Read more
Samantha's face says it all, "why yes, I do bribe the show's stylists to dress the others in the frumpiest, ugliest, clothes available. Charlotte's dress is so ugly it is trying to strangle its host. Miranda looks like a Christmas tree skirt. And Carrie's dress ate her breasts." Read more

My MIL is a passive-aggressive control freak. If Midwesternman didn't acknowledge this and support my need to set boundaries with her, we would have split long ago. You and your BF is the only relationship that matters here, and if he understands who they are and how it impacts you, then he is worth the struggle. Read more
