On Unpublished Grief Memoirs That Are Less Inspiring Than Cheryl Strayed's Wild
Reading Wild was the first time I have become screechingly, weepingly homesick in the 10 years I have been overseas, away from the environs of the PCT (OR, WA, CA). Plus, great story, well written. Loved it.

@EddieMcCandry I think that is the most interesting question -- WHY do we believe?

On Ask a Clean Person: Get Rid of Your Coworkers, Seriously, They Are Revolting
@figwiggin NO! They aren't! I had a mac book pro -- the kind that a million you tube-videos tell you that the keys are impossible to put back on. I got so excited once about a can of spray air, I started pulling keys off willy nilly, only to be completely unable --ever -- to put them back on. Fortunately the ones I couldn't put back on and lost the small plastic parts were the Z, the command and option -- who uses those, right?-- but the F and D flop around like a toddler's loose tooth.
My lesson to you: don't take keys off until you are 100% sure you can put them back on.

On IUDs, or A Detailed Guide to Long-Term Sperm Scarecrows
@Mingus_Thurber Sure it feels weird, but no big. Having it put back in is more painful. Do deep yoga breathing. Tensing makes it worse.

On IUDs, or A Detailed Guide to Long-Term Sperm Scarecrows
I'm on my third Mirena. No periods and never a thought ever about birth control is worth the couple hours of not that bad cramps and what felt like an aggressive pap smear having it taken out and put back in.
That vasovagal is totally a thing -- I passed out once in the Dr's office but the next time I just laid around reading People for 30 mins and was fine. <3 u, mirena.

On Go!
my ex-husband and I travelled around the world for 14 months, mostly overland, mostly to cheap places (ie not Europe). Two people, not super-budget accommodations (am old and therefore don't do dorms or shared bathrooms), doing every single thing we wanted to, for 14 months: $25,000, including subsidizing a mortgage at home.
Best thing I ever did.
