Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Here is what I enjoy: When a meeting reminder pops up, and I'm like, "What do I have to do at 10?!?!?!" Oh, I have to have treats for a coworker's anniversary. I guess that's OK!

My normally undemonstrative boss tossed her notebook across the table when we were discussing the upcoming meeting. THIS IS GOING TO BE SO FUN WHERE IS MY POPCORN.

But people's response to it was fascinating.

Ditto reaction to Maria Bello's Modern Love piece in NYT.

Ditto reaction to Maria Bello's Modern Love piece in NYT.

See, now, I was likely to believe that the producer of The Bachelor would be such a jerk in public. That was completely believable to me.

I have too many dishes to do. Don't wanna.

Some people have been reacting to the idea of her coming out versus the point of her argument that partnerships are more fluid and less concrete than what society would want to say.

My reaction was "Oh! Her GF is African (from Zimbabwe)! I wonder if she's black."

The answer is no. Small and blonde.
