If you’re in a big city, you 110% should have renter’s insurance. It’s not necessarily required in every city/state, but in the event of a break-in, or some random apartment disaster (fire, pipe bursts), you’re covered. A lot of landlords require it to relieve themselves of liability in the event that anything happens to the apartment/your stuff while you’re living there.
Fifth’d. I’m a couple months shy of being two years into my relationship (not quite as seasoned as some of you other veterans, but still long-term), and while our relationship is settling into a little bit of a slower, routine-based thing, I still love every minute of it. We’ve built a life together and are growing with each other. Even when it’s a “get home, shower, dinner, TV, bed” kind of night, I’m so happy. Sparks still fly even when there’s a boring daily routine. I agree that you should consider making more time for each other and actually go do something like travel or literally anything out of your normal routine, especially if you don’t want to give up on it. My man came to the grocery store with me this weekend, and it was a blast. Little things can make a big difference.
Have you guys ever tried Certain-Dri? Literally a life saver. Put it on before you go to bed (ladies: do not put it on if it’s a shaving night, you’ll itch like the devil), and presto, no armpit sweat the next day.
I love everything about this. Lately I’ve been feeling stretched thin due to work (3 hours round trip daily + 9 hours of work = no time for self-care), so I’ve been making a point of trying to do some things for me on my weekends. We forget how necessary it is!
I appreciate this article. My boyfriend and I spent the weekend fixing up our flowerbeds/veggie garden. 90 degrees + 82% humidity here in Northern MS. He took four showers on Saturday, I took two but repeatedly stuck my head under a hose to rinse. So much sweat. I grew up in the 110 degree dry heat summers of OK, so I’m not new to heat, but this humidity – my God. It’s something else.
I’m lactose intolerant (weird mid-20s development), and I would rather take medicine and drink regular milk for the rest of my life than sub in almond milk or any other lesser “milk.”
Grandex. Please?
You’re getting a full 12 hours of sleep in law school? Please share your time management secrets, I need that in my life.
Ravish or ravage? The images coming to mind of a raccoon ravishing an apartment are too funny.
When you said “late, great John Mulaney,” I immediately Googled him to make sure he was still alive. Don’t scare us like that.
Humid and hot AF here in Mississippi, but the summer vibes bring me so much joy.
It’s a bitch to fight a landlord in court if something happens to your apartment or your things. You’re better off just getting the insurance.

Just a couple months over two years sober here, keep it up!! It’s worth it! We’re here if you need help/encouragement!
Going to the store with him is the freaking best.
Best man: Stew, is that you trying to save Todd??

I’m in law school, and I will never give up the Oxford comma. I know plenty of lawyers who use it, legal writing propriety be damned.
I appreciate the use of the Oxford comma, Duda.
Lactaid is a Godsend.
YES!! I drink Lactaid all the time, I love it, it actually tastes pretty normal to me, like closest to actual milk.
