Writer’s Block: Gender Bender

I don’t think so. It seems to me that for most, it’s more work for less reward. Women tend to be respected and paid less than male counterparts.  The plumbing is more difficult and troublesome to maintain. The clothes seem uncomfortable and kind of goofy. High heels? No thanks. The double standard still exists, and expectations of women are generally gross.

Honestly, I lean to respecting women more than men, because of the bulk of crap they have to deal with on a regular basis just due to gender politics.

9316 – Friday the 13th

Happy Birthday to Ldy, my littler big sis! she’s …what, 5 again this year?

I *still* have “froggy went a-coutrin’, he did ride” in my head.

I must’ve done something dreadfully bad to deserve this. Great… now I have pet shop boys in my head.

“What have I done? What have I done? What have I done to deserve this?”

Looking forward to a weekend without feeling too ill.

Artomatic. Book Sale. Father’s Day. Hive. Music by the beach? Gardening? Relaxing? A ride on the Trolley, maybe?

Am I forgetting something?

Maybe our Swarm of the Snakehead screener will arrive in time for a weekend viewing! (Writer Seth Hurwitz spotted my mention of it in my journal, and was kind enough to shoot us a review copy!)

BHK made a big salad from stuff at the farmers market – lots of yummy breads and other goodies, too. (Blueberry sun tea, some onion spread for the bread… it’s just all very delicious) – our neighbor went early, and brought her some corn and strawberries, too.

Tons of fireflies out tonight! That made it feel especially summery.

After supper, we watched “I now pronounce you chuck and larry” – it was what I expected, cute.



Random Newtcam / Pyecam archive shots – (They shoudl really be called Officecam and loftcam, since both boys go on both cams all the time.)

note the windows – most ~ at 10pm, but lightning kept striking nearby.

additional kitty pictures added for archival purposes. first is another leap shot.

9315 – Thursday

Was a bit sicker in the am, but was feeling better by midday. It seems that mornings are the most difficult now, post sleep and shower. One day until Friday!

BHK and I went out to Thursday’s for supper with Chris and Larry – took a walk on the boardwalk afterward. Nice night, only a couple of mosquitoes.

Today is Buddy’s Wake – Adam’s grandfather didn’t make it, sadly.

More fruit from the blueberry plant! Had a little nibble on them with lunch today, in yogurt.

We also have eggplant blossoms, two peppers coming in nicely and tons of squash, bean and potato blossoms!

Robert Downey Jr. says he gave up drugs
after Burger King served him “a cheeseburger so disgusting that it forced him to reassess his entire life.” The burger was so nasty that he suddenly felt like something terrible was going to happen to him, so he threw all his drugs into the ocean and has been clean ever since.
