I was a college student in DC at the time of the “scandal.” I’m a year younger than her. I would probably have been unable to resist Clinton. I don’t know that I would have survived the nightmare. I’m pretty sure I would not be where she is in life 20+ years later. I really admire who she’s become as an adult, and…

I’ve said this many times: please write a book. Please. Your writing is ferociously beautiful, powerful, moving, thought provoking. It’s needed.

Oh, I thought of another one!

I got my former boss, a genuinely terrible person and worse manager, fired for cause. She was gossiping about a person in another department who got fired. I heard about it from the person she gossiped to, told the fired person’s manager, who took it to our director. I expected nothing to come of it, as usual, but he…

Dude, no. Egypt conquered the known world with men in loincloths and dresses. Caesar conquered Gaul in a dress. Alexander conquered Asia in a dress. Until well into the modern era it was the default option for men AND women. Weaving is hard, fine knitting is hard, shaping is hard, sewing is hard. If you knew that, you…

Please write this book. PLEASE.

Oh God. So many memories. I miss New York City.

Ok, the four memories that stand out most:

The slowly dawning horror of the thing in the bag. A train between 59th and Dyckman. Latino man sits next to me and sets a plastic grocery bag between his feet. It moves. Something weird and pink. It slowly oozes out, the pops up…

Ok, I’m at the library, and that legit made me cackle loudly. 

What I'd love to see is her in Congress for a couple terms, then a solid career as governor, then a massively successful run for president. She's amazing 

Pube pickle.

Aww hell. My great uncle was an American-born son of Italian immigrants, and he was born in very rural Louisiana. Sure, being poor and Italian in the south wasn’t easy. He had a few stories to tell, and they weren’t all fun and easy. He was grateful for WWII taking him away from that life, and glad he ended up in…

Yes!!! Brine, then air dry the skin in the fridge. Delicious turkey meat and drippings for gravy, and incredibly crisp skin. 

My God do I hate the property brothers. They lack talent or charm and their designs are crap.

Just...duh. Next we're going to find out that they pay to be included in the subscription beauty boxes. Shock. (Sunday Riley products don't agree with my skin, but I do know people who swear by them.)

That was my first thought. 

No, it used to be on all the time. It's been a while, but I definitely used to watch it on various cable channels.

He was an important character on Third Watch, too, so I’m not surprised people would recognize him. Also, I’m so laughing at myself for knowing istantly that his character was Al Boulet on ER. Such a random factoid to know.

I can't remember the last time I wore actual pants. Maybe two years now?

You are the one the prophecy foretold. All the stars for you!

You know the movie The Mummy? I keep picturing the scene where Beni is going through all the different religious symbols before he becomes the Mummy's minion? I picture that every time I see Miller.
