Annotations and Perfume: February 2009
http://annotationsandperfume.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Footnotes and fragrances, flags and flora. Yes, another feminism rant. I have read this article. In the Daily Mail, and the comments on it, about the perils of feminism and how one woman regrets her career choices. And I have read Jezebel’s counterargument. Which I find well-constructed. Feminism doesn’t mean trashing all the old choices and only choosing our new options. It means that we are all free to make our choices from a buffet that is now twice as big. I, for one, am grateful.

Annotations and Perfume: Because Here at UVA We Love Us Some TJ

Footnotes and fragrances, flags and flora. Because Here at UVA We Love Us Some TJ. Bear in mind this sacred principle, that though the will of the majority is in all cases to prevail, that will, to be rightful, must be reasonable; that the minority possess their equal rights, which equal laws must protect, and to violate would be oppression." - Thomas Jefferson: 1st Inaugural, 1801. ME 3:318. I f-ing love him. God I fucking love TJ. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Smart Bitches, Trashy Books.

Annotations and Perfume: March 2008
http://annotationsandperfume.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
Footnotes and fragrances, flags and flora. I'm in the Akron/Canton airport, waiting to board a flight for my return to Virginia. I came up this past week/weekend to see Bria in the Footlighters' production of Chicago- which was amazing. Everyone looked and sounded wonderful, and the entire production was very professional. I saw it three times, and even dragged my parents to it. I don't want to leave Cleveland. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Smart Bitches, Trashy Books. Comics, Nerdiness, and More.

Footnotes and fragrances, flags and flora. What is the point of owning so many damn books when I just want to read Diamond Age over and over again? Computers Still Suck At Random. If he hadn't been another fucking barely employable musician, I'd have slept with him then and there. It Never Took Much Convincing To Make Me Believe In You. A friend posted her life goals, in no particular order, and I thought: why not put mine up as well? Cure, or turn chronic, at least one form of cancer. Cover paper in Cel...

Footnotes and fragrances, flags and flora. I'm Gonna Be Your Number One. Talking with the boyfriend last night about the loss of virginity, and how we intend to talk to our kids about sex. His initial comment was: "Those boys are going to be having sex at fourteen. Gotta get started! My response, of course, was to ask if he'd also want his daughters having sex at fourteen. He turned green. In the end, we decided that, regardless of gender, our kids are never having sex. Ever. Shut Up and Let Me Go. Remem...

Annotations and Perfume: Shut Up and Let Me Go
http://annotationsandperfume.blogspot.com/2008/12/shut-up-and-let-me-go.html
Footnotes and fragrances, flags and flora. Shut Up and Let Me Go. Remember way back in the day when a nasty anonymous commenter told me that people (s/he meant "women" obviously) like me were the reason having a uterus was a disability? Yeah, I'm still not any happier with feminism. Or, at least, the brand of feminism I'm finding at Jezebel. The engagement ring thing also drives me nuts. It's a sign that you're "taken." That someone has a "claim" on you. Are those such bad things? All this rhetoric is ge...

jessawesome: Safety Theory
http://jessawesome.blogspot.com/2008/09/safety-theory.html
September 14, 2008. I recently discovered that I have a theory of personal safety, which I have dubbed “Safety Theory ”. For the purposes of this post. It's not the most elaborate theory, nor does it cover most aspects of personal safety. Only one way to remain safe while walking home, by yourself, at night. I went out to the Euclid Tavern the other night with a couple friends, and drank free beer purchased by absently chivalrous first-year law students ( that, however, is a story for another time).

jessawesome: August 2008
http://jessawesome.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
August 29, 2008. Wow, High School Was A Long Time Ago. Or So It Seems). I found a frame next to the dumpster a few days ago. An painted wood frame, old and a little dirty but sturdy enough. It has a very cool, colorful design on it that blends well with my living room decor. I took it home, and measured it. It is 16 inches wide and 30 inches long, according to my tape measure. So I wrote wrote "16x30" in green marker on the white board in the kitchen, and stared at it. I went through AP Calculus! Well, U...
