On Being the Mom of People Whom I've Never Even Met and Who At Least Resemble Grown-ups
So I'm walking into the local university library, off to sort-of pirate their computer resources by checking my emails despite my non-student status, when one of the two non-handicapped young men entering just ahead of me presses the handicap button to open the door automatically. He's taller than I am, big and buff, with stubble, and I get this instant urge to say something to him beginning with "Son . . ."
My, but I'm getting old.

Mine is 8.
This makes me feel bad about eating those delicious chemical-y lemon cookies that you can get in the store for about a dollar per package.

However, it also makes me feel good about being too poor to afford a car.
Yay!

Signs
So where I live, there's a hospital. More than one, in fact, but this one is called
Lovelace
Medical
Center.
And I don't know if it's by accident or on purpose, because of impending Valentine's Day or simply the awesomest prankery ever, but the sign on the north side of the building now reads:
Love
Me

Humanities geekery
Yesterday I developed about a thesis-and-a-half based on the theory that Michael Jackson is the most sensitive (albeit unconscious) cultural interpreter of our time.
Either I went to school too long or I need more school.

W2-Time Thoughts
I think that perhaps the only good thing about having no legal children is still being able to fill out the 1040EZ form. No dependents? No problem.

Eeeee! It's just like my first gay-bashing!
You know it's bad when you haven't even gotten dunked yet and you've already chalked up your first visit to the receiving end of anti-semitism in the workplace. I especially liked when she stated that my wearing a kipah was religious harassment and if I didn't make the clients my top priority, I should find another job.
Hello, want ads! So nice to see you here!
