You're allowed to be happy.
So I have this friend (I’ll call her J). Early 30s, sarcastic and sassy. We get along great. During the summer, we partake in sangria Tuesdays almost every week.

Anyway, J and I have shared all of our dating experiences and I...

finding roommates is hard to do.
Dani: I feel bad that I have to email these girls and tell them we've already found a roommate. And that roommate is not them.
Alex: Well, that's what happens when you're apartment hunting.

I think everyone should work in food service at least once, simply because it cultivates an empathy that, as far as I can tell, is otherwise nonexistent. Anyone who claims that the United States is free from day-to-day classism has clearly missed out on what it’s like to be the person behind the…
