Well, who could have foreseen that going to Oktoberfest would lead them to drink too much?!

Like before I had one I knew NOTHING, I basically thought they ate dog food, but this is why you research!

I love when an author writes a child character but hasn't spent much time around kids. I'm reading a book featuring a baby who's "just starting to talk", doesn't have teeth, BUT has "drawings on the fridge" & when he disappears from his room at night they wonder if he "slipped off" by himself?!?!

He is so funny, I'm trying to write down all his funny little habits so we can read them back to him when he's 25 and embarrass him. 😂

Rowan's latest thing when he doesn't want to do something like put on socks or leave the playground is declaring "I can't want to do that."

As we move closer towards the Christmas season, I'm reminded once more that The Family Stone should have ended with Sarah Jessica Parker's character barricading that whole family in the house and setting it ablaze.

It's always so tough when Taylor Swift releases bad music because yes it's not good but most of these people haven't earned the right to dunk on her, they've never even cried listening to All Too Well (10 minute version) (Sad Girl Autumn Version) on repeat.

There is a season 5 episode of Sex and the City where Carrie is having a creative dry spell and proposes writing an article about some guy she dated 6 years ago because she's got no other material. I thought of it as soon as I heard the new Taylor Swift songs. 😬

The Tommy Robinson endorsement thing is funny because Ed Sheeran clearly doesn’t actually give a fuck about either Israel or Palestine, he just wanted to be left alone with his piles of money. And now the fash want to be friends. So much for trying to stay apolitical!

Rowan is so excited for trick or treating but the funny thing is he doesn't even get sweets so he's not excited about that part, he just wants to dress up as a bee and say hello to people. 🥹

These people found a baby goat trapped in a pit. They took him home and cared for him overnite. The next day they tried to find the owner but had no luck. While looking - they found a group of goats with the same white fur. Then this happened. Original post

Anyway she did get the Den backpack and grew up to be a graphic designer, so all's well that ends well.

In 2001, my sister did a great drawing of a dolphin and sent it in to The Den (big Irish kids TV show, if you're not familiar) and they featured it on the show and sent her Den goodies but we weren't watching it that afternoon because 9/11 was happening.

The bus driver was checking student IDs and I joked that I was definitely over 16 and he laughed a bit *too* hard.
