Mal ,'Heart Of Gold'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
YES YES YES! I'd say we'd come to visit you in Vegas, but a baby+vegas = meltdown-o-rama.
In a related note, I'm bereft that the Baby Loves Disco event is already sold out for this month. No clubhopping for us.
eta but it is not yet sold out for May!
If Teppy ever visits, I know where I'm taking her: [link]
I'm currently drooling and making that Homer Simpson drool-y "gggggggg" noise.
Just so you know.
Dear Coworkers,
And I thought the colonoscopy discussion was bad. Please stop talking about afterbirth.
OMGWTF,
shrift
They recently added deep-fried pizza to their menu.
Please stop talking about afterbirth.
And now I'm no longer drooling.
After a long conversation about dating, someone at work just sent me this Atlantic article on "settling": Marry him!
“They, like me, would rather feel alone in a marriage than actually be alone, because they, like me, realize that marriage ultimately isn’t about cosmic connection—it’s about how having a teammate, even if he’s not the love of your life, is better than not having one at all.”
I’m sure the author would think I’m deluding myself, but I really feel sorry for people who feel this way.

Argh. Had a long depressing conversation about this article on Friday night. My friend kept threatening to forward it to me and I was like NO IT WILL MAKE MY HEAD EXPLODE!
I'm surprised my head hasn't exploded, there was so much to hate in that article! Starting with the premise that the reason I'm not married is because I'm completely deluded about the "reality" of marriage.
Yay gloom! I would like to delay the blinding orb season for as long as possible, thanks.PEOPLE. Do not let Jilli talk to the weather. Trust me.

ION, I am very amused by the ND COMM from earlier.
I just think that author is very sad. She essentially says it's better to marry someone who PHYSICALLY REPULSES YOU, just so that you have a husband, rather than be single.
I mean, really. That's so fucking SAD. How empty is her life, that she believes it's better to be with someone who disgusts you than be single?
And frankly, the whole tone of the article comes off as a poorly veiled justification for wanting a sugar daddy to support her and her child. Unfortunately (for her), any man who's read the article and has one shred of intelligence and self-preservation won't touch her with a 50-foot stock portfolio.
