girlfriday: Dear Ones,

http://www.girlfridayblog.com/2014/01/dear-ones.html

Same job, different uniform. Tuesday, January 28, 2014. According to an article. My dad emailed me, In 1944, Tolkien’s son, Christopher, was having a rough time in camp with the army. His father wrote the following encouragement, Well, there you are: a hobbit amongst the Urukhai. Keep up your hobbitry in heart, and think that all stories feel like that when you are in them. You are inside a very great story! Posted for better or worse by girlfriday at 10:05 AM. Get girlfriday in your email:.

girlfriday: Transition: My path to natural labor

http://www.girlfridayblog.com/2011/12/transition-my-path-to-natural-labor.html

Same job, different uniform. Wednesday, December 28, 2011. Transition: My path to natural labor. Two weeks ago today I gave birth to a darling baby girl. She arrived in three short and (two) agonizing hours of labor. Now I know I am capable of giving birth naturally when six months ago I knew almost nothing about natural childbirth. Our firstborn came after 19 hours of difficult and frightening labor. I yielded to every intervention short of a c-section. The waterfall of intervention. I was on my way.

Same job, different uniform. Tuesday, September 16, 2014. It's Worse Because You Know. Though I don't remember much about music or movies in the 80's, I remember the great political debates. Ronald Reagan, Walter Mondale, Ollie North, Robert Bork all loom large in my memory. And abortion. All things considered Roe. Was still recent history. I made signs on poster board and marched in the annual pro-life rally every January. I watched the videos. I listened to the radio interviews. The fetus comes out eas...

girlfriday: Half a Person, Abroad

http://www.girlfridayblog.com/2014/05/half-person-abroad.html

Same job, different uniform. Monday, May 19, 2014. Half a Person, Abroad. I'm about to leave for my first international vacation since my honeymoon. I've traveled a lot, a handful of times abroad. I've always left the United States whole. Not this time. I have a husband now and I always feel like half a person when we're apart. The two young children that moved in and eat our food and explode our idea of free time- they have really pulled me apart. Alone is at once liberating and boring? Lois E. Lane.

Same job, different uniform. Sunday, February 23, 2014. Girlfriday: get thee a new angle. This is a shameless repost. With edits) of one of my favorites, originally submitted June 2006. I rue the day the dairy industry launched its "Got Milk? Campaign. It spawned a generation of unoriginal ad campaigns that nauseate and bore millions of marketing-conscious Americans.

girlfriday: Courtesy of my mother, who is always timely

http://www.girlfridayblog.com/2014/03/courtesy-of-my-mother-who-is-always.html

Same job, different uniform. Thursday, March 27, 2014. Courtesy of my mother, who is always timely. Terror accomplishes no real obedience. Suspense brings forth no fruit unto holiness. No gloomy uncertainty as to God’s favor can subdue one lust, or correct our crookedness of will. But the free pardon of the cross uproots sin, and withers all its branches. Only the certainty of love, forgiving love, can do this. Horatius Bonar, God’s Way of Holiness. Posted for better or worse by girlfriday at 3:43 PM.

Same job, different uniform. Wednesday, November 30, 2005. From Scotland where we can only assume this is funny. UPDATE: The Scottish culprit (so eerily like pulpit) who forwarded this along further insults us by suggesting that it originated in the U.S. because "less" should be "fewer." If you have read the description of number of items allowed in the express lane at your local supermarket, you must know that he's right. Posted for better or worse by girlfriday at 11:19 PM.
