Temporary roommate syndrome

I seem to suffer from temporary roommate syndrome (TRS). Here's how it's been since July. One roommate moved out with her boyfriend (and cuz she wanted a dog, which I was quite opposed to), another got engaged and found a sweet deal on an apartment real quick after that (only to be kicked out of there shortly after - turns out crazy old land lady made it not such a sweet deal afterall). She moved out so fast, though, that I accepted an intern on a two month stay, who was married, and missed her husband, and missed him so much she left her internship one month early and went home...she told me she was leaving three days before moving out this weekend. Sooo I found a new roommate last night, also temporary (I was just saying yes to the first person to bite at that point in my panic). However, she may be cool. Turns out she'll be working for the Sundance Film Fest (hookups, please?). And now my other roommate will be leaving me for a ski job at Alta in three weeks.

Is it me?

Playing house

I have no idea how I got here. I spent so much time dating and being single and going through boyfriends and now here I am -- in my late 30's, married and with a baby on the way.

We made a list of things we still need to get from Amazon and discussed the credit cards with the best points to put it on for travel miles and cash back bonuses. We have 401k's and a savings account and talk about stock investments. You'd think, at almost 40, I would feel like a responsible adult and this would all feel normal right now. It does not. Any moment I wonder when I'm going to wake up. There were times I thought maybe I'll never get married. I wondered if I'd be able to have children -- or get the chance to even try. This baby, so far, seems so healthy and so far I've felt healthy throughout the pregnancy. I'm blessed with go

Don't Touch My Junk

I am appalled that so many in my generation are ready and willing to roll over and be sexually assaulted (and let their children be sexually assaulted), give up their rights to privacy and ignore their rights as stated in the 4th Amendment all in the name of supposed security at airports. This new TSA measure is outrageous and ineffective. I did not always feel this way. Like so many others, I didn't see the big deal. However, on more careful examination of the 4th Amendment as well as the many, many assaults that have already taken place, and along with an understanding of the measures we really should be taking to ensure our safety, I have changed my mind. This video is of a man who recorded his experience going through TSA. He asked the TSA agent not to "touch his junk". That's when the TSA agent put him on the no fly list and asked him to step out of line. After questioning he then tried to leave the airport but was told he had to go through the entire procedu
