She&#8217;s everywhere, this screaming lady &#8212; who, I should mention, is also a gifted &#8220;anxiety&#8221; model. She and a handful of other characters seem to show up on every blog...]]></description>

OK, I hate things that start &#8220;me and my ___&#8221;.  Like, &#8220;me and my crazy sense of humor.&#8221;  Just add that to the list of things I do that I say I won&#8217;t do &#8212; like walking into the store Variazioni. This is a small chain of clothing stores that...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We all have imaginary conversations in our heads, right? I have them constantly. I replay conversations that have already happened and think of all the things I should have said. And I rehearse future conversations with friends or acquaintances that I think will be hard. Like, &#8220;Here&#8217;s why I can&#8217;t come to your birthday dinner,&#8221;...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m boycotting the Food Emporium on my corner. You can&#8217;t see the stains and rips on the paper tablecloth in the photo above, or the clearly spoiled egg salad sandwich that guy in the background snapped up for half off. (Or more!!!!!) But still, it pretty much captures the level of professionalism there. The manager...]]></description>

You can catch it from someone just by being in the same room. Or pizza shop. You&#8217;d expect to come out of a pizza shop smelling like pizza,...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[LOL!! What’s so funny?  Oh, nothing.  I just typed that to fill an uncomfortable silence. That&#8217;s what everyone else does. I mean, come on: how often is someone really laughing out loud, or even smiling, when they use LOL? I’m not completely against LOL-ing.  I’m okay with it when it’s in reply to something funny. ...]]></description>
