I took my husband's last name because my maiden name is the 10th most popular surname in the US & his is so unique, when Facebook first started letting people choose their URL handle, HE WAS LITERALLY ABLE TO HAVE HIS JUST BE HIS LAST NAME. I was tired of going to appointments, hearing…Â
I blame "Bringing Up Bebe" and my adoption of a lot of French living ideals ahead of my pregnancy for many of my "unorthodox to American women" choices. First of all, I was and am a woman before I was an incubator, and there's little to nothing I've changed about my lifestyle since…Â
I don't want to gain a ton of weight during my pregnancy, and the amount American OB's and What To Expect When Your Expecting is honestly excessive. I already have appetite issues, and I'm tiny in stature and girth, so I'm fulfilling my wish to not gain too much without any actual…Â
Zoombinis, the Freddy Fish series, and the Pajama Sam series. They're all kids computer games from the late 90's/early 00's. I'm glad to know I'm not the only one that remembers and loves these. Most of them are available on Steam (Zoombinis is a whopping $10, for example). I grew…Â

My flight from Los Angeles to Fort Lauderdale (which was a work trip & contained about half of my office mates) had to make an emergency landing in Missouri when a passenger passed out and experienced a medical emergency. The woman had consumed three alcoholic drinks on the plane,…Â
The only reason I've paid off my loans already is because of a structured annuity my mom created for me with money won in a settlement after we were hit by a Freightliner. Am I happy my loans are paid off? Yes. Would I go through that car accident, the injuries, and the recovery again…Â
When the interviewer asks me if I have any questions, I always ask "what's the biggest pain point in the company/office/on your team and what could I do to address it if I started tomorrow?" No one has a canned answer ready for that one; it shows willingness to "hit the ground running,"…Â
I wonder if any of these studies were related to one I saw a while ago that correlated birth control/hormone use to divorce. The argument follows a similar idea; women meet men while on hormones, fall in love, get married, then go off of the hormones to try to have a baby with aforementioned…Â
