Plague of Midges...
Not that any of you care, but this is so freakishly cool. I work on the shores of Lake Michigan and this amazing plague of nasty is seriously remarkable. I can't walk outside to my car without these little *kitten* covering my face, getting in my mouth, hair, car... It's nasty. Yet so fascinating.

Athletic Beer Drinkers
Let's hypothetically say you signed up to run a half marathon (which is a long distance for you, but do-able). When do you STOP drinking in preparation for the race? 5 minutes? 2 days? 1 week? 3 months? Where is the beer vs. athlete line drawn?

What is the proper etiquette for children's sleepovers?
I had a recent invite for my son to have an overnight that caught me off-guard. So, I'm wondering, in YOUR opinion/experience, what is the proper etiquette for sleepovers, or how would you handle this situation? “Nikki” (the mom) called me last week at work. She found my number in the school directory. She sounded “rough”…

Should we just break up?
Every morning I come on MFP to dutifully log the Miller 64 I consumed the night before... and every single morning I see this slore named "Iceberg_Simpson" talking to my manfriend for HOURS before we've even been able to exchange a goodmorning. Why is he talking to her every morning before he talks to me? I mean... rude or…

The coolest things I've learned on MFP
1. Mayo is a dairy b/c it's white. 2. The stuff that's floating in your pee is the fat coming out. 3. Beer has twice as much fat content than McDonald's French Fries. 4. Eat Protein. It creates muscles. 5. The only time that muscle weighs more than fat, is if the pounds of muscles is higher than the pounds of fat. (I've…

Lingerie Parties (Women Only!)
OK, without giving any opinion... What do you think about a Bachelorette Party that is a "Lingerie Party." Meaning... everyone is to buy the bride to be undergarments, yo.

We have a program in our town to "Adopt a Family" for Christmas gifts through our Homeless Assistance organization. One of the kids on my list is a 14 year old girl that would like "Craft Things."

Do you celebrate Saint Nicholas Day?
Apparently, I've been suckered into this "holiday" since I live in the land of Germans... And my child is very excited to leave his shoes out this year more than ever before. When I was a kid, we'd get candy, fruit and nuts (in the shell, naturally) in our shoes. However, per the kid's at school, St. Nick is leaving…

Help - Christmas Gift Ideas for Dad
I need Christmas gift ideas for my father. He’s beyond difficult. 1. Anything he wants… he buys. He “needs” nothing. 2. He no longer has any hobbies.

HELP! How do I introduce a guy to my family?
So... we've been discussing the proper way to introduce the new guy to my parents.
