Wonderland or Not

This is why, though I believe in equality for all and know there is a long way to go, I’m not fond of screeching illogical feminism.

The President of NOW NY put out a press release dramatically titled “Senator Kennedy Betrays Women by Not Standing For Hillary Clinton for President.”

In a fine effort to humiliate all woman, she shows herself to be the stereotypical premenstrual female unable to think clearly during that time of the month. The woman, obviously at some personal psychological tipping point of her own, embarrasses woman everywhere by showing just how ridiculous and illogical a feminist screaming in unmitigated rage can appear.

Though it appears there is no reasoning, only anger, behind this, and absent from her complaint is any disappointment in powerful woman who have endorsed Obama, her reasoning is there, under it all, it’s just not sound. To be on the side of woman you must vote for a woman, even if that woman is a power hungry minx, who is being constantly propped up by her
husband, and has a less than stellar progressive voting history.

Lesson number one: There is no book, so whatever book you are going by throw it away.

Grad school is a place full of collaboration and consultation which seems, despite it all, to have potential for a certain degree of loneliness, the loneliness which comes with knowing what you do is more yours, and yours alone, than anything you have done in the past.

Enjoy your lonely, (concert), song of choice.

The real cooper will return sometime later this week.

Peace

I should have known the groaning sound wasn’t a cyber orgasm.

My desktop sucked in its last cyber breath yesterday, bless its’ little cyber heart. It was good to me. Too bad I was too stupid to back up everything while it was still grunting and screeching “the end is near”. Maybe if it had moaned a little louder, or screamed a hearty “the end is near Olivia, stop brushing your damn teeth, put the “not tested on animals” foot cream away, and back this shit up”, I wouldn’t have had to kick it so hard, or so often, last night.

I can see now Grad school will be good, for ten pounds. Always the queen of healthy eating, I ate three doughnuts today - who the hell eats three doughnuts in one day? I feel sick too, but I’m fairly certain I’ll probably eat three doughnuts, in one day, again in the near future. I suppose a larger chair, to apppropriately accomadate my soon to be expanded derrière, will be in order. Is there no rest for the weary?

I’d like to vote for Letterman solely on the line “I would appoint Mitt Romney secretary of lookin’ good”.
