Yes, I am dirty. I will admit that I am at times the fun kind of dirty, but tonight, it is dirt in my hair, dirt on my feet, dirt in my clothes. Dirt. But good Antelope Island hiking dirt.

I awoke from a nap today and on my television was Carol Brady speaking at Mormon Conference. This confused me because Mormon Conference is in April and October. I must admit that I had taken a Soma before my nap, as I was in great neck pain, so I thought maybe that was interfering with […]

Hillary has been my man, but Obama is going to be my president. I so look forward to an Obama America.
I look forward to traveling abroad again and not having to pretend to be Canadian. I look forward to the peace of mind in knowing I can’t get fired again for being a lesbian. I […]

She has always loved graphic tee shirts. Always. That is her wardrobe. But the day after getting her pre-seventh grade highlights and lowlights, something clicked.
We went school shopping. And she picked out “girlie” shirts. With floral patterns. And spaghetti strap camisoles. Her first step into her teenage years, which don’t start for another four months.

Yesterday at 9am I asked my boss for a few moments. I went into her office, closed her door, and very professionally told her I had received two job offers and accepted one of them. She in return was professional, but didn’t even ask why I was leaving. At first, I thought that was odd. […]

Congratulations to my oft-times Crush du Jour, Rachel Maddow. She gets her own show on MSNBC right after Keith Olbermann, starting September 8.
Of course I got my first whiff of this via Twitter (thanks Virgotex). I got my first whiff of Rachel, er, my first listen to Rachel in January when I activated the XM […]
