The Pursuit of Harpyness →
Ooooh—a feminist blog formed by several women whose comments I enjoy reading on jezebel.com and feministing.com. I’ve learned a lot from their comments (as well as enjoying their particular brand of snark), and I’m interested in what they’ll be writing about.

I don’t know how else to show this, I can’t find an embed code for this video. The animation is beautiful and touching and horrible, and the metaphors hit very seriously. Art in its best form, I think.
NY Times: "Friends, Until I Delete You" →
Article about the etiquette and decision making process around deleting “friends” on Facebook. A timely article for me! I find little satisfaction in being friends with people with whom I have a) no possible future with; and/or b) no extensive past experiences. But will deleting anyone actually make my life better, or simpler?
In a similar vein, I’m thisclose to deleting my...
Whoops.
I just realized I forgot to attend a very important training that held earlier this month. I thought it was on my calendar, and it wasn’t. Upon realization of this, I actually physically cringed at my desk.
This is a serious fuck-up on my part. I am keeping my fingers crossed that nothing comes up in the interim that would require my understanding of the information that was presented at...

NY Times: "What Do Women Want?" →
This article looks at three different women sexologists exploring the complexities of female desire. Sexology always fascinated me (who isn’t fascinated by sex?).

I just spent about 10 minutes looking for something to open a beer with-spoon, keys, scissors, anything. The only lighter I could find wasn’t doing the trick. Then I realized that I have not one, but two bottle openers stuck to my fridge…so now I am having a beer while I laugh at how dumb I am.
…oddly enough, this has happened to me a few times.

So yes, I know I just “liked” and re-blogged an assload of postings—but I missed a lot while in Disney super-suspended-belief World: a mighty powerful inaguration and one helluva snowstorm! Plus, kitty phenomenon. Gotta love it.
I forgot to put up my out of office email message. Whoops. Hope I didn’t upset too many folks. I’ve got a fair bit to catch up on at...
Dear Maine,

I’m sorry that I called you a big frozen turd. Sugarloaf on Sunday was absolutely epic, and my drive to school this morning by the snow-covered river was beautiful.
I’m willing to give “us” another chance, if you’ll forgive me.
Love,
C
Hahahahahahaha the truth is hilarious

Why is so much of Tumblr lacking in original content? Why so much reposting of “cool stuff” from the rest of the web? And why is that so popular? How do people get tumblr famous like that? Not sayin I have anything interesting to show, just sayin.
…because someone says it better than us. And is cooler than us. And by that, I mean you are cooler than me.
