Hello! I am looking for socks. 

This has been kind of an ongoing thing, but it’s starting to bother me more and more. First a bit of background.

I am someone who never was really exposed to classical music, or any kind of musical theory, growing up.

I’m hoping you can settle a grammar discussion for me. What’s the accepted rule for pluralizing words that come from other languages?

I have a head-scratcher for the Nation — fairly recent, but it’s driving me positively BUGGY that I can’t remember the title.

I have recently (six months ago) stopped drinking. I stopped because I am an alcoholic.

I’m looking for some help finding a nightdress for my mom. 

I really, really want some boots this fall. I try half-assedly every year to make this happen, but usually give up because it’s just so darn difficult. 

I’m a mid-30s woman living in a state with a full four seasons. I’m hourglassy, with a defined waist and small boobs, and a pretty big caboose.

In honor of my wonderful friend A’s birthday this week, I decided to ask a question that has kept me up nights for almost a decade.
