So I was cleaning out my massive list of bookmarks, and I came upon this. Not sure if this has already been shared, but I thought for the newbies it will be really helpful....

So... I've been married for a little under a year. Originally I kept my last name, but now I think I am ready to change it. Is the process the same as immediately after marriage? Are there any...

Some of you may remember my MOH stories... I still love her to pieces, but anytime she pulls shit like this, it makes me want to dunk her headfirst into a toilet bowl. Her 2-year old's birthday is...

Russian humor is very diverse - the Russian people actually have a whole subset humor genre devoted to making fun of the mother-in-law. Here are a few of my favorite jokes that are (hopefully) not...

In case you haven't had enough of my MOH-related stories... A while back I wrote a public entry in my blog that was kind of whiny and possibly too personal for a public setting. So after a few days, I...

I don't know if you remember my mini-rant about my MOH who refused to give me any information about the surprise bridal shower she planned, and did not want to plan transportation to the shower for my...

So my MOH decided to throw me a surprise bridal shower 2 days before the wedding (on a Thursday night). She won't tell me where it will be located or what she is planning. However, I have 2...

So, I just got my ears pieced. Again. Actually, I had them pierced before, but I didn't wear earrings for a while, so the holes closed up. I did the piercing at Claire's, and the salesperson told me...
