I was thinking more like in terms of price per square footage. Most of these neighborhoods are justifiably expensive because they have mansions. I know that homes in Palo Alto, for example, go for millions even though they are shacks. [ Reply | More ]

The typical case of morning sickness peaks around 10 weeks and is well into tapering by 14 weeks but you might have the kind that tapers at 16 or 18 weeks. I hope you feel better soon!

[ - ] Is there any way I can get out of my GGMG contract? I paid $75/year but this group is beyond horrible. They allow political petitions to stay up as long as moderators agree with the petition (even though politics are forbidden). They also have me on moderation; people on the board do not like me and say some really mean things which are left up on the board; however, they never post my responses. So I just basically get reamed out by multiple mothers and get no say. Even if I am just offering advice, sometimes the moderators never put up my post. When I ask them why not, I never get a response. Last night, there was a post that was put up under anonymity (which are all moderated). It was about a mother who had seen a nanny recommendation from a GGMG mom and had had a bad experience with the nanny. She was debating whether or not to take the post down. The post has now been taken down by moderators so there is a bad nanny being recommended but no one can contact the person who had the bad experience. I am just so sick of being treated like shit, ignored, and having the moderators so clearly not even following their own guidelines. I at least want 6-months' prorated (which is how much time I have left with this horrible group. 1 Reply [ Reply | Watch | More ]

Are you shy? Do you send off a standoffish vibe? I know I do - I have had several friends tell me that they thought I was stuckup b*tch and did not seem approachable because I was reserved and, sadly, my natural expression on my face when I am not smiling looks kind of bitchy (if that makes sense). But once they get to know me, they love me. Maybe you need to make more of an effort to engage in conversation at these events, even if it is uncomfortable - "fake it till you make it" - and extend invitations to people you think you might click with, rather than wait for them to reach out to you. I guarantee there are others in your same position, who want to make friends but have a hard time reaching out, who love the invite. [ Reply | More ]

OR: Don't be so hard on yourself. You say you have solid friends, so it is not like you are inherently unlikeable or that you "suck". And it is really hard to make friends the older you get. Are you feeling down because you truly are missing that social connection (I am guessing you don't see your good friends much?) or because you think you "should" have more friends? (Even as adults I think it can be hard to get out the wanting to part of the "popular crowd" mentality!) As for the small talk - I totally agree it can be awkward and feel forced. But you have to start somewhere. What about inviting a few people who you think you will click with out for drinks, or over for a dinner party? Sometimes it is easier in smaller settings. Or join a committee at school - you'll be spending time with people on a regular basis, and will have something in common to talk about when you are working together, that may then expand into more (like becoming friends with work colleagues outside of work - that is usually not instant but grows over time because you work together) [ Reply | More ]

[ - ] Any advice on how to handle this situation? I am a freelancer, and have not been paid by one of my clients to whom I sent an invoice over a month ago. We never had any agreement, nor did I write on my invoice "due in 30 days" or whatever, as to when payment is due as in the past they have always paid me within a week or two of receiving my invoice. I don't want to be a pain as I hope to work with them again, but I REALLY need the $$ as things have been really slow lately and cash flow is an issue (in addition to my project fee, I have outstanding expenses on my credit card for things I paid for myself upfront for the project). I sent an email with the invoice again last week as a reminder, and no response whatsoever. In the future I will ask for half the fee upfront, but I would love some advice on what to say to them now as I am terrible in these situations. Anyone BTDT?

For now - when you call again, let them know that you need to pay your project vendors. I know it sucks and you feel like you are begging for money, but to bug the again is probably the only way you will get paid. For some companies it is normal to pay in 90 days! For future - put "Due Upon Receipt" on your invoice, which is completely fair since they have already received the deliverable from you. Also, spell it out on your quote - even if it is a half page quote, it is a good idea to always have a client sign one ahead of start date. [ Reply | More ]

Dalton offers a spring tour as does Horace mann. Brearley does not unless dd is legacy. And Trinity does not. So my thoughts are - you can't have an opinion right now on all these schools unless you are basing it just on the website. [ Reply | More ]

Regardless of the tat, cut her if you're not close anymore. [ Reply | More ]

If you aren't close that is a good reason, if it just the tattoo you are a crap friend. [ Reply | More ]

This. That is almost as bad as cutting someone because they gained weight and are too fat [ Reply | More ]

When you break the news, say, "And it's not because you're fat, or have a hideous neck tattoo. It's because I don't like you anymore." [ Reply | More ]

Meh. People grow apart and the fantasy of being a bridesmaid when you are 16 far outweighs the reality. She will probably be relieved to just be guest and not have to she ll out for a dress. [ Reply | More ]

Maybe you could get her to add some accents to the tattoo that are the same color as the dresses. [ Reply | More ]

It's not that she has a neck tattoo - it's more what it is - a make sex organ - I don't want to be looking at my wedding album in 10 years and see that! [ Reply | More ]

We're you in hers? How old we're you when promise made? How old now? Would she be invited as a regular guest? [ Reply | More ]
