You sometimes (translated = ALL THE TIME) find yourself going to the bathroom with the door open, and you have absolutely no qualms about relieving yourself in front of anyone anymore. You can carry on three simultaneous conversations while washing dishes, making dinner and planning out the next few steps on your conquest/world domination plan. You sneak in a cat nap during every single movie you go to, even the ones with your kid (or kids). It doesn’t even matter if it’s the most stressful, intense movie that’s ever been made, either. If you’re in a dark room in the...

It’s true what they say. When the cat’s away, the OTHER cats will play. Things have been totally different here on the circle lately because two of the local feline hooligans recently moved, so Tabs has been living it up. Now he has the place almost all to himself. I mean, there are still a couple of other neighborhood cats. Like, there’s this one tabby tyrant named Harris who still comes around sometimes. In fact, Tabs is pretty sure that Harris is the one who vandalized the front office catnip plant, but unfortunately someone sabotaged the security tapes, so he...

The mega influencer/YouTuber/all-around “It Boy” is launching yet another collab with MAC, and it’s pretty intense for a holiday collection. There are five lipglosses, three lipsticks, a huge over-sized Mineralized Skinfinish that’s almost as big as my head, a translucent loose setting powder, two eyeshadow palettes and three pigments, and the whole shebang drops December 3rd. Patrick Starrr’s known for bringing the glam, so there’s lots of sparkle, shine and cheeky innuendo. The products have names...

A few things (aloha and TGIF, BTW): 1. Running in 85-degree weather with 67% humidity is like hauling your limbs slow-motion through corn chowder. Wait — now that I think about it, merely existing in humid weather is like that. I am SWEAT-TAY in Hawaii, man. 2. If you’re staying with your in-laws in their one-bedroom condo with one bathroom and your child is a toddler, it’s probably a good idea to lock the bathroom door while you’re in there; otherwise, said child *will* open up that door, and she’ll only do it when your booty is hanging out for...
