This makes me literally sick to my stomach. This is voter fraud. This is disenfranchisement. This is targeted voter suppression in urban and democratic leaning districts. For those of you making hay about ACORN and purposely misleading to possibility of some rogue voter registers creating “mickey mouse” registrations that would then be voted on - if you...

Aaaawww…..
I just had my best yoga class in 3 weeks (they were not going so well lately due to the never ending cold). Then I came home and split a large pizza with Matt and drank Diet Coke, which is a crappy meal. I mean, it was tasty, for sure. Just crappy for me. I’m trying to not eat meat. Fail. And I usually don’t drink soda. Ever. Oops, fail. At least the pizza was...

AGREED. Fucking selfish ignorant...

Julia, Love love love nonsociety.com and love the blog. We have similar tastes in fashion and I love getting style ideas from you. I live in Chicago and cannot find a place that you can get green juice from? Almost all of them are the crap smoothies, full of...

Great story about grandparents, and very honest paragraph or two at the end. I recognize her feeling of “dreading” everything. I have to check myself and change my perspective often. So often that I wonder what is in my genes that makes me just want to stay in my house and be alone (or with Matt). Then I realize that my maternal Grandmother is like that. I’ve got Betty Jane...

YES! I’m about to get me some of this action later today at my folks’ place. PS: Happy Canadian Thanksgiving to my fellow frostbacks.
Sad, kind of.
We are contemplating canceling our wedding because we are not gamblers. It’s just stupid to have a big wedding with the economy as it is. BUT….we will lose so much money either way at this point. The contracts we have signed….I highly doubt they will reconsider making us pay according to the cancellation policies. So we give them money for nothing right now by canceling, or...
