I used to work at the public library here in my hometown. I worked with this adorable high school girl who I think is turning into an incredible young woman. Anyway, she moved to East Moose Screw, Canada. She was at the library visiting yesterday. Okay that is a strange place to start the story, …

So, I know I have been kinda melancholy lately, not like depressed or wanting to cut myself to prove to myself I’m alive or anything, but just not my normal fucked up cheery self.

< That makes me happy. The giraffe-y face of melty happiness. He is yet another wonderful thing I got from Kathleen. This week my blogs have been exceedingly uninspired or rants. They haven’t been up to what I normally write. I’ve had a lot on my mind, and I’ve had plenty going on. I am …

Sometimes this feels very true, like when you see people arguing against evolution or global warming. There are so many times that I want to tell people that they are wrong and outline …

I was texting with the Viking earlier while he was helping his Tina fix stuff. (Yes, the Viking can fix things, AND he promised to teach me to weld. Score!) I told him he was good people and being good people was highly undervalued now. [Okay, I’m going to pause here for a second to …

Okay, my pretties, it is time for us to have another talk about that dreaded feminism thing. I assume that anyone who reads this regularly is either a feminist, loves a feminist, or is a masochist that likes to read terrible rants about gender issues, so I’m not going to outline why we need to …
