The Matriarch's Corner: May 2011
http://thematriarchscorner.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Musings of an INTP Writing Spider. oh wow. didn't see that coming! Wednesday, May 25, 2011. Not a response to cowardly anonymous letters. Some of the accusations allege mishandling of personnel issues or student discipline issues. As anyone who works in HR. Not everyone loves this as much as we do. And that is OK. CSI is a school of choice, and if it's not your choice, make another. In the past five years, we have not been the choice of fine families who believed that their children needed more or less s...

The Matriarch's Corner: November 2010
http://thematriarchscorner.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Musings of an INTP Writing Spider. oh wow. didn't see that coming! Thursday, November 4, 2010. Let there be peace on earth. And let it begin with me. When I have tried to think about what to write in a peace blog, I've been bombarded with images and memories, bits of songs, snippets of conversations, flashes of photographs. And what I end up thinking is something I read on a bumper sticker put out by the Marynoll Nuns about 30 years ago. If you want peace, work for justice. If you want peace, be peaceful.

The Matriarch's Corner: Kindergarten day one: real or pretend?
http://thematriarchscorner.blogspot.com/2015/01/kindergarten-day-one-real-or-pretend.html
Musings of an INTP Writing Spider. oh wow. didn't see that coming! Friday, January 16, 2015. Kindergarten day one: real or pretend? OK, first of all, let me say that I have nothing against Penny from The Big Bang Theory and truly meant to defend her right to be or act like a bimbo or a housewife or a theoretical physicist, especially if she is funny. So let it go, Bob. That's one of the standards. Real. Pretend. But here's the thing: that's not how it works. That's not how any of this works! If you dress...

The Matriarch's Corner: A special kind of stupid
http://thematriarchscorner.blogspot.com/2015/01/a-special-kind-of-stupid.html
Musings of an INTP Writing Spider. oh wow. didn't see that coming! Thursday, January 1, 2015. A special kind of stupid. It takes a special kind of person to stand on the shoulders of giants and say, "Really, this is the view? I've seen this.". And that is what Kaley Cuoco-Sweeting (of Big Bang Theory) and many other women like her are saying when they say, "I am not a feminist.". Mrs Sweeting even said it herself, albeit with a shrug:. And every damn body who benefits from the fights of those women (and ...

The Matriarch's Corner: September 2010

Musings of an INTP Writing Spider. oh wow. didn't see that coming! Tuesday, September 21, 2010. A Note on Comments. I love comments. I've never had any bad comments on my posts (at least not in writing or to my face), but I wouldn't hate that either. Well, I would, but only on a personal level and only because I want everyone to love me. If I decided to delete a comment, I'd explain why. And that's what I'm doing now. And to sum up: go ahead and comment. No SPAM. Tuesday, September 14, 2010. Now it is ti...

The Matriarch's Corner: November 2014
http://thematriarchscorner.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Musings of an INTP Writing Spider. oh wow. didn't see that coming! Sunday, November 9, 2014. Perhaps today is a good day to die. When I posted the Blog4Peace post on November 4, I noticed that I'd blogged four times in four years, and three of them were Blog4Peace. I also noticed that I hadn't blogged in 2013, even a little one. And I remembered why, sort of. One day, early on, my sister called me to say that Dad wouldn't get up. He said he was going to die. We should all gather at his bedside. So you've...

The Amortization of Goodwill: July 2011
http://theamortizationofgoodwill.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
The Amortization of Goodwill. Monday, July 4, 2011. Happy 4th of July. There is supposed to be a picture here. Oh well. I'll work on it later. I'm not sure what they thought their lives would be like in the United States. I know they expected to work hard, and they did. I suppose they expected to make friends, and I think they did. Both women worked for several years before eventually marrying and having children. Their children gave birth to my parents, and for that I am greatful. Where have you been?

It didn't offend me, but it gave me a small ray of AHA! Well, more like a hmmmm. Something to think and pray on for awhile. The speaker, Kyle Oliver, asked if anyone had ever been to a non-religious funeral. Only a couple of people raised their hands, that I could see. He said, "Wasn't it odd? Didn't it feel wrong? If your attitude is...
