Every time I see one of her videos/new blog posts, my first reaction is always, "DAFUQ." But I do so enjoy her intelligence and sharing what she knows, and I think my reaction is just the initial, society-installed, taboo-subject-rejection software getting a word in before my brain can stop it.

Yeah, I take a liquid multivitamin daily, and probiotics, but never assumed they were some magical cure-all, or that they'd help me avoid serious illness. They're called supplements, and that's how use them: to supplement my diet on good days, and to keep me from hitting deficiency levels on bad.
Christmas is almost here, and it's the first one I'll spend without my family. They are all in another state. Mr.FrenchToast and I couldn't make it work to travel this year, but my grandmother said something that was so simple, yet really made me feel ok about disappointing everyone. She said, "At some point, you have…
Baby German Angel Christmas Chorus, with a photo of my mom when she was a young ballerina in the background. I doubt the angels are in the correct orchestral order, but IDGAF. Mr. FrenchToast had Depeche Mode on rotation and I was too far into an 'Enjoy The Silence' irony groove to notice until now.
This is making me angry to the point of being sad enough to cry in frustrated, impotent rage-sadness. I know people who tell me that if this "stuff" makes me so upset, maybe I should change my feelings on feminism, and then I won't be so sad. It's getting increasingly difficult to explain to the same people that being…
That's an awesome list! And it makes me wish I were a better feminist. I call myself one, but I don't think I'm very good at it. Keep trying, though? :)
Maybe. Even a broken clock is right twice a day.
Every time someone says "Pistols at dawn", this is what I think of. (Kate Beaton is awesome)
Thank you :) I'm actually a singer/actor but have focused mostly on local work, and my day job is administrative work for a theatre school. I feel like I could do so well being the director of a group, and perhaps a non-profit business class would help. I like the idea of training a tiger, though...;)
So, what's everyone doing with their life? I'll go first!
I have a job that works for now, a husband whom I love that loves me and thinks I'm wonderful, and a healthy family. Yet I keep coming back to wanting to do something more meaningful with my life. I bounce around the idea of getting my Masters, but in what I…
Adorable. What I meant by that was so hideous they are back at cute, and I want all of them for all the snuggles. I love pugs, but Mr. FrenchToast says no :(
Oh, I know. They barely circumvent hideous on the way back to adorable.
In no universe I would want to live in should that happen.
I like the idea of yoga, and what little I've done was fun, but I'm worried about going to a yoga studio, as the one in my town is frequented by a certain stereotypical kind of suburban person that I'm uncomfortable around because I have neither too much money nor too much free time, and I always feel like I'm…
28, and I can't even tell you what I'd give to stay 28. It's my favorite age so far, I think. I'm terrified of getting older.
I'll take Rose wine. I like those. Something to drink while going through each of those letters like stages of grief.
I really, really enjoy this song :)
I know I'm late to this party, but, Robert Bathurst. Can't stop won't stop.
