Actually, I'd say the "girliest" thing in this whole situation is the internalized misogyny in that very notion. Or maybe just the saddest.
Everyone is right, but brenda so very much so.
Is this a private email exchange, or is it going out to your whole list? Because if it's the latter, you can probably rest assured that every single other person on the list is boggling at her jackassery (if that's an acceptably non-gender-coded word -- maybe "assholery" would be better?).
I have also discovered that he will eat pills, or, presumably, dynamite, if they are covered with cheese.
Well, who wouldn't?
Poor doggie. I remember our childhood dog, Missy, would occasionally get terrible infections and scratches and injuries that we didn't pick up on right away just because she always wore that pleading look and refused to whimper even a little until the pain was nigh unbearable. Dogs can often be too patient and stoic for their own good, poor things.
Indeed, Happy! Birthday! Jilli!
I am not as ambitious as Lee with the tags, but the sentiment is true.
I'm at work today, which is dull because it is almost finals time and the students are studying not asking questions. My DH tells me the painting is almost finished and that the bug guy is doing his thing at the new house. (Buh-bye crickets!) My parents and niece are coming up this afternoon and will get to see the new paint before I will (harumpft!). The workmen start on the floors on Monday, and by the time we get back from Thanksgiving in Richmond, the new house will be as shiny as it will ever get.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JILLI!!!!
boo work!
YAY shiny house that we need pictures of.
Lucy got in an actual fight with another dog at the dog park last night. Freaked me right the hell out because she's never done that before. And I have a small bite on my finger from pulling them apart. Not bad, just going to make writing and stuff less than fun for a while.
boo work!
I'm preparing a talk for a canon law class from the theology school that I'm giving on Monday. Because it's a roomful of priests, I feel like I have to change all of my usual examples that involve same sex-marriage, etc. Not because I think any of it will shock them, but because I don't want to have to answer any substantive questions on these subjects.
Probably a wise choice. What are you going to use instead?
