In honor of Mother's Day, Hairpin pal Sachar Mathias has created a video tribute to the television mothers of yesterday and today. Send it to your mom; send it to your television.

Once, as we stood in line for coffee, my boyfriend at the time plucked something off my sweater and said, "If you weren't always so linty, you'd be totally out of my league."

Until that moment, I had only thought of my lint quotient in a moment-to-moment way, as if every time I felt the need to de-lint, it was just a one-time incident. No, I realized. I am one of those linty people. And it reminded me of other times I'd been vaguely insulted or teased in a way that revealed me to myself.

Lately, life has felt a lot like that dream where you're falling and falling but never hit the ground. The only way you're gonna land on your feet this week is to finally wake up!
