Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I am starting to actively dislike my boss.

I am literally terrified of that FlyLady thing. Like, two minutes on the site and I started hyperventilating. Yet so many people I know have found it useful. It's so ... PURPLE. And relentless.

I also want to point out that a size 12 on a 5' tall person is much different than a 5'8" size 12. Size 12 can most definitely be considered fat, if, for example, you are 3 feet tall.

I'd say "can be" rather than "is."

At 5'3 (almost), a 12 on me (I MISS YOU, SIZE 12!) is rounding down into the slim range for my build. An 8-10 is slender. I'm a 34F/G, so I can't really get any smaller than than a 10/12 for dresses, and even when I was unhealthily slim, my hips were 38" around.

Has anyone here every used FLYlady? (http://www.flylady.net/) I have been and it has been working, but I was wondering if anyone knew of a similar (free) place that was maybe a little less focused on moms and really heteronormative stuff.

I like the Flylady concept, but I can't bear the e-mails; the assumption that you're a mom with a husband; the constant lols; the amount of God; or the general cheeriness. I haven't found anything equivalent for grumpy agnostic single people.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Plei is me in those sizes. At one time I was down to a 5-6 and looked seriously unwell.

That cherpumple has been posted before, I think. I remember stealing it and reposting.

My husband played an original song last night IN PUBLIC! I am terribly proud of him and so glad that so many of our friends came out in support. One dude we've only known a couple of months who happens to live across the street from the bar at the end of ours.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

At one time I was down to a 5-6 and looked seriously unwell.

I've done that! Both parts.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OMG I want to stab my boss.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I think bosses frown on being stabbed.

Oh, also, re: drinking at work. We actually had a wine cellar/room at my last agency also a salsa/margarita party, also also, bloody mary/mimosa mornings.

Why yes, I was in advertising, why do you ask?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

That cherpumple thing is waaay too much sugar for my taste, and I have a major sweet tooth.
