OOOOOOH! He's a Hobbit! I thought he looked familiar.

Sawyer is the one that hangs with the girl with dark curleyish hair? (Sorry, 45 minutes is not really enough time to deserve to be asking these questions.)

That's the guy I was thinking of, BYD!

And, how did I miss know that was a Hobbit???? Merry or Pippin, right?

That is a seriously nice photo

Yeah, Dominic Monaghan was Merry in LOTR, et al - he's kinda cute in a
hobbit-y way

Beautiful posts, Audra and Chris.

Hot guy, BTD.

I felt older at 29 than I do now at 31 and I felt a hell of a lot older at 24 than I do at 31. Weird.

My own parents' stories are amazingly boring.

Astonishingly so. Oh well. They're my mammy and pappy and step-pappy and step-mammy or whatever and they're the only four parents I have.....except for my ex-step-mammy, Michelle, for whom my mom was lamaze coach back when my pappy and Michelle's ex-husband were still best friends and my own mammy and pappy were still married, although it was around that time that my mammy was dating/doing my friend Daryl's pappy Nelson and Daryl's mammy Nora Mae had just married his friend Chad's pappy Carl. But like I said, quite boring.

Is anyone in your family referred to as "Uncle Dad"?

We can have a Sawyer lick fest. Perhaps they should create a Sawyer pop. How many licks does it.....

Are there any lickable women on this show - or is it male oriented?

My favorite phrase, "I'm too young to be this old!"

I too am suffering the "have I only come this far" problem of being 28. I look around and see 1. Still no property ownership 2. Dog still living at my mother's (really makes me feel like I'm still living like a teen) 3. Not married, which means there's no way in hell I'll get to start having kids before 30, 4. Still barely scratching out an almost living. I thought I'd be making decent money by this age. At least enough to pay my bills. Nope.

Watching my childhood friends with their houses and their husbands and discussing or already carrying their second child, well, it definitely leads to a feeling of inadequacy on my part. I was the smart one (also the ugly/fat one). I was supposed to break out ahead of everyone and succeed like no other. Why am I still living like a teen, barely making bills, when they've managed to get so settled?

You are not alone, EH.

Well, depressing or not, I'm 29+13 and still have not had children. I have had a career and we own a house, but I'm still where I am at. And, that's OK with me. Life is sure interesting.

My mom's is as boring as toast. My dad's...is mysterious. I only know snippets, and more situations than complete pictures. Inattentive (possibly alcoholic?) mom, mostly raised by his aunt, military boarding school as a child, failed out of college, joined the peace corps, worked in Colombia in the peace corps, eventually earned his masters, and is now the most upstanding, prude person you'll meet (save for my mom, of course). It's clear to me that there are HUGE chunks of that story that are far more interesting that I'll eventually fill in somehow.
