Shave…and Get Drunk

Posted in blog, wtf | 1 Comment
A rather apt look at the way women are advertised to…as opposed to men.  It’s not completely accurate, because they left out the ED concept, but the rest of it is pretty spot on. Women == change who/what you are to become perfect. And clean up after everyone.Men == carry on with your bad self… Read more

Posted in blog, butterflies, metaphoric crap that is supposed to mean something deep but probably doesn't, publishing | 3 Comments
I went to the Museum of Natural History in DC yesterday. Nothing major. Just a day alone with mr myn (which culminated in a feast of gut-busting proportions over at The Melting Pot.  You can never have enough cheese. Or chocolate.)

And I had a nicely self-righteous rant about fanfiction and plagiarizing on my other blog (which may or may not have been warranted. Probably not, in fact. And for which I did apologize later. But still.) I hesitate to say it’s a hormonal thing, but I have noticed that I definitely get rantier during certain times of the month. One of these days I’ll heed my own inner warning and just step away from the keyboard, but until then I suppose I’ll just keep shoving my foot further into my mouth.
