On Coworking From Afar

Wifed! What a GREAT verb. Using it forever and ever with getting-married friends. (Did we, the readership of this blog that weirdly kind of knows a lot about your life, not know you were getting married before this? I did not. Anyway, Congrats Jane!)

On On Second Chances

OK, so I get that THIS dude is a wee bit delusional and he seems to have already told Lady that he's in big boy love now (but not when he was, what, in his late 20s... HMM!) and she said KTHXBYE, but I can't help think about every girl who has ever moaned over a glass of wine that she wishes Important Ex That She Misses would just do something/show up with a boombox outside her window/call her up/etc? The initial question was what "when does a guy merit a second chance?" and I think there should have been something in here that said hey, if you're not this juice box, tell her how you feel! You might not be alone, dudes! And if you are, and you did it politely and respectfully, you might give the situation some closure for both of you. I was once the caller-upper. Nothing came of it, but I felt shit tons better and I can't imagine it bothered him much. He was very nice. I was nice. It was nice.

On Face Moles, "Perfection," and Shifting Dynamics

@leon.saintjean reallyreallyreallyreallylove the Little Mermaid reference there. Wish I could upvote that a HUNDRED TIMES. I'm not even a big Disney fan but that is just so damn perfect.

On Quirks: Is Their Ignorance Our Bliss?

My best friend gets so excited about sharing funny stories with her friends that she skips the story and jumps straight to the punchline (leaving the rest of the group confused). Since I've noticed this, I sometimes try jumping into the conversation right before I think she's gonna blow and filling in the important details, so she gets the appropriate reaction.

On Ask a Clean Person: Sweat, Dye, Must, and Onions

@oyster Contacts. Do you wear contacts? Can you buy some cheap color-lens ones for cooking? It's an eyeball condom. Always use protection!
