I broke down and got a dog a year and a half ago and it was the best decision of my life. They are a lot of work but they bring so much joy. It’s like having a kid but without all the BS
I matched with a guy who I wasn’t to sure about, but eventually agreed to meet because I was bored and wanted a free dinner. He wasn’t too sure about me either and agreed to meet up because he was bored and wanted a shot at some casual Tinder sex. Fast forward almost two years: we now share an apartment, two fucking cute dogs, and we are nauseatingly happy together. Neither of us wanted this going into that date, so I think that counts as a Tinder horror story.
My boyfriend and I are rounding our 6th month of living together now. It’s been a little tougher than either of us would of expected, but it’s been well worth it. It’s nice to save money and share a household, but we do bicker a little more now than before. Hoping it’s just a phase since we are still early into it, and we’ve had some other stressors that have factored in, like our beloved dog being stolen from us two days before we moved in together (and fortunately recovered 2 months later) leading to us having two dogs now in our small apartment. But all in all, I think it’s definitely a good step to take if/when you’re ready.
1 chicken breast, 1 can black beans, 1 can cream of chicken soup and some taco seasoning in the crockpot. Shred chicken in the crockpot and serve in lettuce wraps/tortillas or by itself. It ends up making a shitload of food and is not the worst thing you can eat for $4.
Usually I take pride reading these columns because I don’t do about 90% of these things, but I’m guilty of this one. My sorority alum group did this as one of our monthly activities and, I’m not going to lie, it was a great fucking time.
Whenever I’m about to do something, I think, “Would a girl after graduation do that?” And if they would, I do not do that thing.

I have two French Bulldogs. I am also a teacher. I can affirm that dog children are 1000x more enjoyable and satisfying than real children. Dogs don’t require you to leave work to conference with their teachers because they are being little shits at school. Dogs don’t turn into middle schoolers. Not to say that my pups don’t have their moments, but I would take a fur kid over a real kid every day. Sorry mom
I’m a teacher so I can attest that staying home all day for 3 months actually does get old after a while. I know I won’t get any sympathy here, but summers get pretty lonely since everyone is at work all day so it’s not like you can really do anything anyways.
I went into this article with an open mind, as I view both equally as my go-to shows (although I got into Parks and Rec much later whereas I’ve watched The Office since the beginning). Seeing the characters in side-by-side comparisons, I definitely like The Office characters better in almost every match up, exceptions being Kevin and Phyllis.
I grew up in northern Idaho and out of curiosity I FBed Kendra’s name because of the Montana references. Sure enough we have mutual friends. I’m not sure if that makes me dislike her or myself more.

Have a glass of their finest Pinot Noir in hand as we speak. $3.50 each if you buy a 6 pack at Randalls. Can’t beat it
Yeah, she definitely has the best foreign policy experience. Look how great Libya turned out!

Too* god damnit I’m an English teacher. I know better, but I’m currently pounding mimosas at an airport bar so that’s my excuse.

Yeah, I feel like these numbers are a little skewed. I make more than double the Texas median, and I’m a public school teacher.

I literally have never said or thought any of these things ever. Maybe that’s why I never have to resort to sending “u up?” texts to get a second date

Kendra lives in Seattle. Might give a little insight into why the way she is.
I feel like I just read one of those MySpace surveys everyone used to do in high school.
