Cousin Scroogey

Posted by: bossybetsy on: April 29, 2010

Dear Betsy, Ugh. I have to go to my cousin’s wedding this weekend. There is no way I can get out of it. I don’t mind going so much, but the thing is, there are only two people in the whole world who think this marriage is going to last more than a year, tops, [...]

A Klutz In Love

Posted by: bossybetsy on: April 23, 2010

Dear Betsy, My boyfriend is a jock. Not a meatheaded nut-scratchin’ “WOOO!” jock, but an actual enthusiastic athlete. He runs in races, bikes everywhere, swims to relax, etc. He also runs with a crowd of people who have similar interests, so he and his friends are always rushing off to play volleyball and tennis and [...]

My crime is time.

Dear Betsy, My stupid friends are stupid, and so am I. A couple of weeks ago we were out and I was drinking and someone asked me who my celebrity crush was. I couldn’t think of anybody. They wouldn’t let me say I didn’t have a celebrity crush. Unfortunately, right before I left to go [...]

Dear Betsy, I used to listen to that song “Ants Marching” by Dave Matthews and think, man, I need to go do something with my life. But now I’m older, and when I hear it I think, screw you, Dave Matthews. We can’t all be hippie musicians. The world needs accountants, too. So who is [...]

People. They’re the worst.

Dear Betsy, Why do people suck so much? I was reading about Constance McMillen this morning. She wanted to go to prom with her girlfriend. Some adults in her town organized a separate prom for her to be excluded from, so she was only one of a handful of kids at the official prom. Why [...]

How can we be sisters if we can’t be friends?

Posted by: bossybetsy on: April 5, 2010

How do I get over a close friend who moved away and doesn’t make the effort to stay in touch? A couple of years ago, I made a very good friend through a social group I joined. We had a great time together, did a lot of fun stuff together, we had a lot in [...]

It’s Past My Bedtime

Posted by: bossybetsy on: April 1, 2010

Dear Betsy, I should go to bed early. Really, I should. My toddler wakes up at 6:00 am, and he wakes up at night relatively frequently. He usually falls back to sleep on his own within about a minute, so I don’t have to do much, but that wakes me up and disturbs my sleep. [...]
