Hey, I've been in a firefight before! Well, I was in a fire. Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity. I can handle myself.

Erin, you've just made it so much easier - they wouldn't understand most of what she's saying with her accent, anyway. She could talk to them about anything at all this way.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I have never heard of that episode. And I was raised on LHotP in the 70's. For shame!

Nilly, huh. I may have to re-think the penance. How about in Hebrew, after a snack of kosher sugar-filled goodness, right before school lets out for the day? And they're all sons of friends and neighbors...and local rabbis!

HA! Beat THAT penance, missy!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You didn't have the "Encompassing Infinties" ceremony when you had your first period?

Ha! We were talking about sex ed and first periods and stuff the other day at work, and I told them about how I didn't tell my mother for months after I started, because I was sure she was going to want to take me out to lunch, and I was NOT feeling that.

So, I just saw Dreamgirls, which, good times. My question is this: was Beyonce already that skinny, or did she lose weight for the movie?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

OMG. I didn't tell my mom for a month after I started, for pretty much the same reason. (I had to tell her the second time, because it happened while we were at an amusement park for the day, and I was wearing white shorts.)

Ah, adolescence.

A year. My mom figured it out when her Tampax started to disappear at a more rapid rate.

Ok, gotta go make myself cute and Saturday-nightable.

One of my workers was talking about her mother "letting" her use tampons, shave her legs, whatever, and I realized it's because they had multiple bathrooms in the house -- I just started using my mom's stuff for all of that! Another reason to be glad I didn't grow up rich?

Erin, from Jesse and Hil's stories, it seems like some my mom had it just right.

And they're all sons of friends and neighbors...and local rabbis!

Snerk.

Always Anti-fascist!

I was so late to start I had almost decided I wasn't gonna. So, you know, non-event. My friend got a cake. But she was always having to give up her room to migrant workers so...

Shit's all sorts of different now.

was Beyonce already that skinny, or did she lose weight for the movie?

She lost 20 lbs for the role. Her own decision. But she put it back on after.

I saw it last night!! Jennifer Hudson = my new crush.
