Pretty cool except for the part where I was really terrified and now my knees are all dizzy.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

And I hate that I'm the kind of woman who will grow her hair to appease a man. (Or cut it for the same reason. IJS.) I think I have to burn my feminist membership card now.

Meh. I think it's kind of different in the context of a specific relationship. I mean, presumably you each do all kinds of things to make the other person happy, right?

Well, yeah.

Huh.

That makes sense. Jesse is wise.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Does anybody care anymore what Phyllis Schlafly thinks? I mean, if I post something she wrote, the reaction will be laughter, not outrage, right?

Anyway, with that assumption in mind - from Kos (because I'm not going to link directly to her):

Phyllis Schlafly dishes out a whole lotta crazy on why John McCain lost those feminist-created, single women voters:

The women who cast off husbands look to Big Brother Government to support them. They vote for the party that promises more benefits from the Welfare State...

...the feminists achieved unilateral divorce on demand from state legislatures, unilateral abortion on demand from the courts, and unilateral control over children in the welfare class by taxpayer handouts to women that made husbands and fathers unnecessary.

The feminists have continued their campaign against marriage through Joe Biden's favorite legislation, the Violence Against Women Act, which provides a billion dollars a year to feminist centers to promote divorce and oppose reconciliation.

It must be so confusing to be a woman and a misogynist.

Has she gotten more extreme?

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

I used to not change after work, but since acquiring the cat I've been getting in the habit.

I always change into comfortable clothes after work because I'm either about to cook, walk the dog or work out. So many of my work clothes are things that I don't wash or dry clean every time I wear them that I like to get them safely back on the hanger before someone walks across me with muddy paws.

I generally don't care if I have cat hair on me. (Maybe I just got too spoiled when I had a Devon Rex.)

But since my boss brings his dog to work, I'll often come home with dog hair all over my pants, so I figure everything balances out anyway.

Jesus. What color is the sky where she lives?

I also change out of work clothes, for the comfort (I love tights, but after 10 hours, my leg hair gets sore), and dry-clean only cleanliness (snot-nosed kids) factors. Also in winter I keep it colder in the house than work, so I would be cold in some work outfits.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I mean, if I post something she wrote, the reaction will be laughter, not outrage, right?

Yes. Or, at least eye-rolling.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

When I worked in business attire (suits everyday), I changed when I got home to save on dry cleaning. I didn't do it AS much when I went to business casual. The past few places I've worked have had the dress code of "cover your bits", so I don't change much since my work clothes are jeans and sweaters (or capris and t-shirts).

However, all the talk of fleece Indoor Pants has my thinking about making some for myself. They can't be all THAT hard, can they?
