Picked out my own ring. Found it on Instagram. $900 and it was exactly what I wanted. From the 1930s and totally unique. Happy as a fucking clam and get tons of compliments–but again we got it for me, not for a bunch of bitchy spectators.
I actually really liked the BuzzFeed article when someone got engaged with a ring made from a tooth–because hey, it’s all about doing you and being personal.
Cush: Thanks for bringing light to this plight and PS. PGP changes all my titles. I apparently suck at them. It’s not personal.
I really want you to do what’s best for you in the best way possible to preserve your sanity and well being. I also really want you (and everyone in the world)to (re)watch Eurotrip
My cousin’s kids are obsessed. Think he’s total fire. At one’s own bday party all she wanted to do was watch Calliou. Eff the cake, presents, and all her guests. I guess you do you, girl.
Don’t sleep on the single dads, ladies. Responsible, mature, not reckless drunks, sweet, and patient. But Crash Sr. is right, it’s a kid, not a puppy–have some respect for boundaries.
I think Calliou is on Netflix, could make a it Netlfix and chill for the whole fam.
I just cannot imagine WHAT previously undetected daily habit someone you love more than anything would have to emerge with to turn you off that badly that you no longer want to marry them. Aaron and I moved in August 17, married September 13th- so the deal was essentially done. If they are messy- you’d know that. Snore? That too. Kosher kitchen? Obvious.
Bodies in 55 gallon drums of muric acid Dahmer-style? Deal breaker. See-you gotta go pretty far…
Jumped off the cliff. Never lived with a dude until I the month before I got married. It took getting used to. I’d go out after work and forget I had to tell someone I wouldn’t be home. I’d neglect to mention business trips until the day before.
Fortunately, my husband is neat and cooks, so I guess I feel the same way many dudes do–pleasantly surprised. Cat enjoys extra set of hands to feed/pet her.
Cube, it’s satire, a joke. Just like telling your relatives your ex gf fell off a cliff…It’s funny because it *could* be true.
I don’t think she’s real…
The Nordstrom in my hometown had a piano. Can it PLEASE fall on those two?
Ah, the state where you never find a dance floor empty: New Fairfield and Farmington.
Now, there’s a new hashtag to follow up #SaveThanksgiving. As for #ditchDeborah, I will be sharing that one with my mom stat.
Wow, that made my day!
Yes, Courtney. She is a year older and lives in Baton Rouge. She’s totally bitchin’ but has been married for six years :/
Keep ya head, you’ll get yours!
WDF , did you bug my “Book Club” meeting last night then transcribe it here?
My dad left to his own devices would have lived like a hoarder without my mom (and now does now that they’re divorced). You’re a gem, sir.

I am just saying I might be willing to earmark some funds to bribe WDF to write some break up death spiral dialogue from your bae.

I’m in the city (feel I’m a lifer) and the drunken dinner party is the best regardless.
Word. Are you in DC too? 66 every damn day. I joined the Equinox in Tysons just to break up that miserable trek on the way back to DC.
And the good Lord gave us couches and melatonin….

Where do live in DC for less than a grand?? Are there 30 people in your house? I guess that could be fun… Curious because I live there too..
