living is easy with eyes closed

i've been watching a lot of Say Yes To The Dress lately and i want to go into bridal shops just to try on dresses. am i getting married? no. am i a bridesmaid in any weddings? also no. it's more of a 'i'm bored and need something to do' and this seems like a good idea to me. anyone else ever had ideas like this that they know probably aren't good ones but you'll probably do it anyway?

I'll admit I'm a guy that often thinks he has good ideas and does them, and they often turn out to be bad ideas. So I'm going to encourage you to do this! Just go to every bridal shop you can think of and try on the fanciest dresses you can find. You should go to some really luxury shops. It's a shame the groom isn't supposed to see the dress before the wedding, or I'd suggest pretending I was the groom so I could see all these fancy dresses. My daughter is with her mum on holiday for the next two weeks, and I've just finished filming, so I've got nothing going on, and I don't know why, but this would amuse me.

911 has wrapped, which means i get to be in New York for a little bit. being with two littles is well a lot. but since Karlie is at the Met Gala tonight, that means that i get to parent alone... i'm totally not scared at all. my beautiful lady is looks fucking great, our little slice is out there making Met debut with Mum. i got this i got this, i know it sounds like i don't but i do. how hard can taking care of a four year old and almost 2 year old... if any of you have any tips please share, but as i said i've got this. @hfrpstarters

My daughter is a little over a year old, and I'm still not sure I know what I'm doing, so I don't know if I can give you any valid tips or not. Because honestly I feel like I'm doing a good job as long as my daughter is fed and entertained, and she's always both when she's with me because we're snackers and I love to make her laugh. But I'm sure you did a great job, mate, and when mum came back from the Met, everyone was happy and there was no crying, right? Not from you or the kids!

what's the worst life advice you've ever received? asking because ever since i had a baby a couple months ago, it's like the gates to being given horrible advice have opened. never asked for it, of course, but i guess having a baby means people suddenly feel entitled to throw their shitty thoughts and advice at you. like sleep when the baby sleeps? sure, but then i get nothing done for work or school, which puts me crazy behind. however, i think the worst of it was being told to simply put some sprite in his bottle if his stomach was upset. wild. everyone knows he's more of a dr. pepper kind of guy. okay, i'm kidding about that last part. now please, indulge me with your stories. don't have to be baby related, of course. / @hfrpstarters

I was once told that I shouldn't mock the movie franchise that put me on the map, and I thought that was pretty bad life advice because I believe Twilight deserves to be mocked by me. But joking aside, since I've become a parent myself, I've gotten loads of advice that's been terrible and unsolicited. I've never heard the one about putting Sprite in a bottle to help with an upset stomach, but why do people always want to give your baby whiskey for everything? My gran and granddad swear by whiskey for everything. Colic? A nip of whiskey will do. Teething? Whiskey on the gums will make her feel better. It makes me wonder if my grandparents are the reason I turned out the way I did because my parents left me with them, and maybe they gave me whiskey for everything. Oh, Rob stubbed his toe, give him a shot of whiskey. Oh, Rob's having nightmares, some whiskey will do him good. I just feel like this answers so many questions about me, you know? And we don't need my daughter to become Rob 2.0, she's better taking after her mum.

Honestly, if I could, I would adopt all the animals in the world, but unfortunately I can only have a few… Tell me, do you prefer dogs or cats and why? And if I do adopt one, what name do you think I should give to my future cat or dog? I need ideas. @hfrpstarters

I'm right there with you, mate, I can never go to a shelter because I always want to bring all the animals home with me. I don't really have a preference, as I've had cats and dogs, and I want to make sure my daughter has a cat and dog as she grows. I love dogs for how cuddly and clingy they are, and I love cats for how independent and nonchalant they are. What kind of names do you like for your animals? I always pick the most random things that people would be embarrassed to call out, so you probably shouldn't trust me.
