I'm sorry, dad. You know I would never have tried to save River's life if I had known there was a dinner party at risk.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Good to know about the G1.

Zen, that's my exact problem with watches (except digital, which I still think are a pretty neat idea).

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

My FaceBook status updates end up boring because I have to run them through the work-filter and the mom-filter.

I know! And mine are worse because there's also the conservative Christians who are my donors filter.

So pretty much I just post about food. Which I know is lame, but inoffensive.

I am ready for a new cellphone. Plus, my kiddoes have started texting me, so I need something better for that. Plus, my phone cost $5 over five years ago. So I'm probably a little behind technologically.

My phone is on the safest list but now I'm worried about the boyfriend and his iPhone! He's on it all day on conference calls. I think he uses a headset though.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Love it Lisah!

Coming out of a long writing snap is always like just waking up after being asleep for a few months. Unanswered emails, my apartment is a total wreck and needs a top to bottom cleaning, and I'm a month late for a dental cleaning.

I don't think I actually have any work people friended on FB, but I try to keep in mind that anything I post has the (minuscule) potential to end up on Gawker or ValleyWag.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

This is why I don't have work people friended on FB. Boundaries!

My BB is on the worst list, but I use headphones any time I'm on it for long (conference calls, etc.) so I hope I'm okay.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I don't have any current work people on my fbook (thus my joking about taking over our website earlier), but I do have former coworkers, and our industry is pretty incestuous* so I don't expect to be current coworker free for long.

*My Bff since HS freshman year is a recruiter for my industry and got me my last position, a girl she worked with got me my current position and New new girl her position, they both worked with another friend who was going to be interviewed for this position before they decided to just go with me. 3 of my current coworkers were placed by BFF. 2 of my new coworkers were from my old company who is also an agency for current company.

“Not dead yet!”

I find myself wanting a new pair of boots.

These have caught my eye.

Thing is, I don't need a new pair of boots.

Cute, Barb. These may not be your style, but they are much cheaper and may satisfy the urge. [link]

“Not dead yet!”

Oh man, that's like a smorgasbord! Problem is, I have such wide calves, a lot of boots don't even fit me. I usually have good luck with Frye (of course I would, what with the being expensive and everything...)

This is what I get for years of competitive figure skating and drum corps.
