des femmes: 09/05/2004 - 09/12/2004
http://desfemmes.blogspot.com/2004_09_05_archive.html
Des femmes, defamed. A rhetorical device that uses a part to represent the whole, such as “pussy” for “woman”. Messages may be quoted in posts. Progressive Women's Blog Ring. Feminist discussion of fantasy and science fiction. Women of various interests. How do you think of yourself? No she is NOT. This post is not about you. Roses, rings, and balls. So much for reframing. Nuances: who owns the words. Stopped by and asked some hard questions. He noticed I haven't called out any women for using pussy.

Prickers and Thorns: I Need Workers' Comp on my Second Shift
http://prickers.blogspot.com/2007/11/i-need-workers-comp-on-my-second-shift.html
I Need Workers' Comp on my Second Shift. Wouldn't it be nice if I was on a bender after finishing my book? A trip to a private island in the Caribbean, or a 2-day spa package in the mountains? No, I haven't done any of that, because my household sank like the Titanic when I took almost two weeks off for a flurry of last-minute book finishing. Though Husband was officially in charge, the system I built to keep the house going was totally abandoned for a "don't worry, we'll get to it later" approach. We tr...

Prickers and Thorns: Red Sox and Rockies in the World Series
http://prickers.blogspot.com/2007/10/red-sox-and-rockies-in-world-series.html
Red Sox and Rockies in the World Series. What to do about this? The World Series has two teams that are sweet. And no evil overlords. To root against. It's just too tough to decide a favorite, so I'm afraid it's going to be one of those World Series where I can't pick a team ahead of time. I'll just have to wait to see who my insides are rooting for. Okay, you got me, I'm in Canada now, but I've been ruminating on this one for a number of years. Plus, who knows? We might follow suit up here.

Prickers and Thorns: Fall is Here
http://prickers.blogspot.com/2007/10/fall-is-here.html
Ah, the Fall. The leaves change color, the chill in the air, the letters of recommendations to write, the courses to prepare, the paper deadlines, the data collection process to organize, the book must be finished, the Kid's pants are too small, the Kid has a superhero pajama party but no superhero pajamas, the boiler needs to be turned on. Blogging suffers. RSS feeds will hopefully keep me connected to both of you who read this blog (hi Mom! View my complete profile. Sociology-ish blogs I read.

Prickers and Thorns: Free Rice for your Brain
http://prickers.blogspot.com/2007/10/free-rice-for-your-brain.html
Free Rice for your Brain. I went over to Freerice.com. Recommendation, and I have to say that it is so engrossing that I may not get my book done on time. Basically, they quiz you on vocabulary, and for every correct answer, the advertisers donate 10 grains of rice to the UN World Food Program. How can you just leave when people are hungry? Okay, I'm going back. Book, schmook. View my complete profile. Sociology-ish blogs I read. Jeremy Freese - on hiatus. Science-ish blogs I read. Dept of Not Posting.

Prickers and Thorns: The Fall of the religious right? Keep dreaming, Kos.
http://prickers.blogspot.com/2007/09/fall-of-religious-right-keep-dreaming.html
The Fall of the religious right? Keep dreaming, Kos. That the evangelical Christian Right is imploding. He points to some schisms within, some stridency in their political claims (like that's new! And some movement on the part of Republican politicians to distance themselves from the evangelicals. View my complete profile. Sociology-ish blogs I read. Jeremy Freese - on hiatus.

I'm posting over at Scatterplot. Links to this post. I Need Workers' Comp on my Second Shift. Wouldn't it be nice if I was on a bender after finishing my book? A trip to a private island in the Caribbean, or a 2-day spa package in the mountains? Well, "later" was the minute I finished my book, and "we" turns out to be me. Into my lap fell 7 (! The Kid's preschool tuition had not been paid. Of course, I immediately caught a cold, as did the Kid, and Husband left for a business trip. All the chaos ...We tr...
