Ketchup Revenge

It's no secret to the people I know that I like wearing mens clothing. I hate almost all women's clothing. It's too thin, too tight, exposes areas that I don't want exposed, and not usually warm enough in the winter time since they focus more on fashion than functionality.

Men's clothing doesn't always fit me right, but I like wearing it because it covers me where I want to be covered and mens clothes are usually made of a thicker material so they are warmer.

Are there any sites that anyone knows of that sells women's clothing that is styled and/or tailored like mens?

Do these sites even exist????

I've had this problem for a while. I get heartburn really bad sometimes, and when I do, it ends up making me cough incessantly. I end up coughing so bad to the point of where I end up nearly vomiting, or vomiting.

It doesn't really happen every day normally, but right now I'm currently pregnant, so I have heartburn pretty much every day, sometimes all day.

Anyone else have this problem, and what did you do to fix it?

These people seriously call like 6 times per day (which is illegal), and it's gone on for over 6 months.

This morning, they called two times within a half hour of each other.

We've contemplated actually getting rid of the land-line because the calls are so harassing, and we don't believe it's anything important because they never leave a message.

If these are scammers, what can we do to get these f*****ers to stop calling? Should we just get rid of the land line?

My sister in law works at a bun bakery in Vermont, and due to it being summer, they're giving her a ton of hours.

She'll be working a total of 14 consecutive days this coming week, and I was just wondering how many days she can work in a row legally.

My mother in law (her mom) believes that it's no more than 7, but I heard somewhere that legally, people can't work more than 13 consecutive days. However, we also live in another state, so I don't know if this only applies to ours.

Other answers I've seen say that there is no limit to the consecutive days that someone can work as long as your employer pays you over time (however, this was for various states).

So the question is: How many consecutive days can you work in the state of Vermont?

I live in the North East, and my father-in-law has a Rhodadendron bush that's about ten feet tall or so. This Year starting in the spring, about half the leaves turned brown, and now they're falling off.

About half the leaves are dead, maybe a little more than half, and we've been trying to convince my Father-in-law that the thing is dead, but he said that it did this several years ago and all the leaves grew back.

I've been trying to find specific information on a leaf shedding cycle for this particular species, but no luck.

Is this normal?

I'm kind of having writer's block on this story that I'm working on, and have been simply working on and changing around for a LONG time. One problem is that I don't want it to be a romance novel, but it keeps going in that direction.

The story is a science fiction that involves a female character in her mid 20s who finds out that she's from another planet, and was sent to Earth by her race to candidly gather information about Earth for the possibility of incorporating it into a Galactic Federation. When she's 26, she's called home.

She goes back to her planet and lives on a space station that orbits her home planet, where she meets a special ops agent who works for the Galactic Federation ("Galactic Federation" isn't the official name of the organization. Give me credit, I'm not that generic.)

As far as writing goes, that's pretty much all I have so far. I have a few ideas that involve political threats to this planet and Federation, but I'm having a hard time tying Earth into a more active role in the story because of the fact that Earth is not involved in this Federation.

So essentially what I'm more trying to do is make it a political and action story, similar to Star Trek or Star Wars, but it keeps developing into a cliché romance story between my main character and the ops agent. They do have a thing for each other and will end up together eventually, but I don't want it to be the main focus of the plot.

Any suggestions?

I don't know what I'm having yet because it's too early, but my husband and I need help choosing names for girls.

I'm completely in the dark about it, and my husband really likes the name Ivy (I'm not a fan). I want a name that not a lot of girls are using.

I'm a bit of a history buff, so I was thinking about Athena, but I'm not sure.

Does anyone have any uncommon girl names they could toss my way?

Suggestions are open for boy names too.

I recently just passed my 12th week of pregnancy on Wednesday, and but I've vomited at least once a day, every day this past week starting on either Monday or Tuesday (today is Saturday).

Nausea was present before 12 weeks, but it wasn't really bad, and I almost never threw up. Before this past week, I vomited maybe once or twice a week because I was actually careful to not eat anything that upset my stomach, but now I vomit at least once or twice a day.

I now can't eat a lot per meal because most of the time, it simply makes me feel sick, so I've been snacking all day. Snacking all day is ok, but not all foods agree with my stomach later on. I can't even eat saltines because they upset my stomach simply because they're not heavy enough to provide any real substance.

The only thing that seems to make me feel better is steak or beef jerky, but I'm afraid that too much of that might cause problems with the development of the baby.

Is this normal to have escalating morning sickness after 12 weeks? Has anyone else experienced this?

My period stopped a week ago, and just last night I started bleeding again. My period this past month was unusual, and it was short and light. Usually it lasts about five days, getting heavy on the third day. However, this past month, it never got heavy, and it only lasted about three days.

Me and my husband had sex last night and I got in the shower almost immediately after. I noticed a thick, snot-like discharge. About an hour later, I started feeling some moderate cramping (like a period, but more of a deep, almost stabbing cramping). About another hour passed, and I went to pee and noticed I'd started bleeding again.

It's been about 24 hours and it hasn't stopped. It's not a lot, and I don't think its spotting because as far as my understanding goes, spotting only lasts a few hours at the most.

I was wondering if there's a possibility it could be a ruptured cyst, or even implantation bleeding. The blood is a mix of both pinkish red and a dark chocolate brown, which doesn't look like my usual menstrual blood which is usually a dark, rich red color.

My sister was recently diagnosed with PCOS, and I figure that if she has it, there's a chance that I could too. I've always been irregular with my cycle, and I've been on the pill for about two years, which has fixed the timing irregularity for the most part. However, the duration and amount I bleed has changed over the past year.

Does this, in your opinion, warrant a trip to the doctor?

Does this sound like a cyst, or implantation, or do you even know?

I'm not trying to troll, I promise.

I'm just curious to what your evidence is for God's existence, and what you consider evidence and why?

No argument that any Christian has ever presented to me has convinced me of the existence of God, but now's your chance to prove me and other Atheists wrong.

Go!

This has been a problem for me for over a couple years or so. If I eat too much sugar, especially after fasting, I get slightly lethargic and a deep headache that absolutely does not go away with pain killers. The only thing that seems to make me feel better is high protein food like fish or steak.

I have no symptoms of diabetes or prediabetes (hunger, thirst, slow healing, etc.), therefore I highly doubt that's what is causing this. When I told my doctor about this, she simply said "well then don't eat sugar". I understand her premise, but that's not really the point considering that she didn't really look twice at it. No one else I know seems to have this problem, and thinks its weird that this happens to me.

Any suggestions?

When we first started dating (over four years ago), my husband had a completely normal sex drive. We would have regularly have sex maybe a few times a week. As time went on, his sex drive is seeming to become less and less to the point where now, we do it maybe once every couple weeks, or once a month. He does have a busy work schedule, but nothing compared to what it was about a year after we started dating (60+ hours a week).

I've also noticed that on occasion, he has a hard time keeping erections. He's resorted to sometimes using rings, but they don't always work, and now it seems like he doesn't even notice that we haven't had sex in weeks. The last time we had sex (over a week ago) was only because I told him that we hadn't done it in two weeks. Being a 28 year old guy, this doesn't seem normal for someone of that age (I'm 25).

Any suggestions?

I have recently dyed my hair, which was supposed to be a reddish brown, but it came out way darker than I thought it should, and the color isn't consistent all the way through. I naturally have a darker blonde/ brown shade, so it almost doesn't look like I dyed it at all, and it looks almost nothing like the shade on the box (even the part where it tells you what different natural shades are supposed to look like after you dye it).

It seems that every time I dye my hair, this happens. I've tried looking this up and haven't found any answers for it, but I'm beginning to think that my hair just isn't good for dying. It doesn't seem like anything I do works for getting a consistent color all the way through.

Any tips?

I have yet to find a direct answer for this question, and I see that other people have experiences it, but have received no real answers for it. Every time my husband and I have unprotected sex, almost immediately after I feel bloated in the lower abdomen. This happens every time he ejaculates in me.

And this time I'm a bit nervous because I've been off birth control since September because my prescription ran out, and I couldn't go back to the doctor until a few days ago, but since I haven't started my cycle yet, I'm still not on the pill yet. My husband, through a misunderstanding, believed I'd started the pill, and we had unprotected sex yesterday, and he ejaculated in me. I washed myself out in the shower immediately, but I still got bloated. I'm wondering if this immediate post-sex bloating feeling is normal. I know that this is one of the signs of pregnancy, but this happens every time we have unprotected sex, and it's too early to know if it's pregnancy related or not. (I really hope it's NOT).
