I would not want to live in New Haven. However, as others have mentioned, there are a lot of nice towns within your wanted 30 min commute. Orange is nice and that's really close. I love my (very small) town but that's a bit over the 30 mins. Woodbridge and Bethany are also nice towns that are fairly close.
I'm supposed to have dinner with my friend tonight. Our relationship has been strained for well over a year. Secretly, I hope she bails. I just don't know if I have it in me to have an awkward dinner with her.
That sounds... not fun. I'm sorry your relationship is strained.

I've eaten in front of the TV since I was a teenager. Once my oldest was old enough for a high chair, we started eating at the table. And... I hate it. I can't wait until I can go back to that but my youngest is way too messy.
LOL no. It's just to say why we did or did not delete a post. Nothing juicy.
But it made you snort. So share.
You are going to be disappointed, I swear. She just said Oh Please, but I could just hear the extreme eye roll in there and it made me snort. I was in a weird mood.
I think if we were close, I probably wouldn't have. But we aren't really that close so it's kind of a *insert eye roll here* and move on type of thing. And completely awkward lol.
Whaaaat? He never told you about the divorce and then just showed up with a random woman? He seriously never said anything? Love it. This is so something my FIL would do. They are so fucking strange.
How much snow have you gotten? We seem to have hit a lull.
This is exactly what happened.
We've gotten pretty much nothing so far. I'm hoping it stays on the 18" side of things and not the 30"+ side lol.

I don't know if you remember but I posted a few months ago about my dad getting a divorce. He hadn't told me and even didn't sign a birthday card for my son (which he normally does).
Anyway, Christmas. At this point, he still has not mentioned to me anything about getting divorced (still hasn't for that matter lol). He is supposed to stop by to drop off presents and visit for a bit. Yeah, dude shows up with some random woman. Can we say... AWKWARD?
You guys, it was so incredibly awkward. He didn't tell me he was bringing anyone, which I don't care that he did, but at least warn me! She acted like I was her best friend and she was so weird. And then my mom and aunt showed up and it got worse! She was all "oh I'm from *insert hometown here* too, don't you remember me?" But she was super weird about it.
By the time they left (thankfully they didn't stay long), I had a permanent look of :/ on my face. Thankfully, pinkplasticdoll showed up not long after they left to distract me. lol.
Sometimes I feel like I'm the only person anywhere that doesn't drink coffee.
I missed the last step going down the stairs about an hour ago. Luckily, I was holding on the railing pretty tight so instead of completely falling, I only hurt my shoulder. Blah.

So I'm not an expert, but I do have some tips!
I don't always use a face primer, but when I do it's by hourglass. It's very light weight. When applying it, you are supposed to sweep up your face because it fills in the pores and wrinkles better than way.
If you want a CC cream (Color correcting cream), I highly recommend Stilas. It makes my skin feel super soft. I usually just wear that and apply a bit of bobbi brown's glimmer brick to my cheeks. If you are looking for a full coverage foundation, I recommend Tarte. Also, if you go to Sephora, they have these camera things now that they use to match your shade. It's pretty cool.
I wish! When I go to Italy, I want to go for at least 2-ish weeks. There is no way my mom would watch the boys for that long until they are a bit older.
