I turned 35 on Saturday.
We had a California picnic at the lake.
My husband got me this fabulous Momsrising.org T-shirt.
Of course, what I want for my birthday is equal pay, family leave insurance, and gender equality. It’s not just a t-shirt. It’s political action.
He gets me.
When I was a teenager I thought I’d be stupid […]
This just in from Momsrising.org. Stand up for ourselves, our sisters, our daughters and our babies by insisting that motherhood is not the “worth it” reason we have to give up economic independence. Make “caring” for our families in all stages of illness, birth and death a valid and important national priority worthy of respect. […]
So, Chevy allowed my family to drive a Chevy Tahoe Hybrid across the country, from Dallas to Salt Lake City, on our way to BlogHer08. You can’t imagine my gratitude (My 1995 van broke down right before we left and we just found out it will cost $900 to fix the air conditioner.)
I was […]

I read onConfessions of an IT Girl that Alltop was THE place for cool kids to be. So, I rushed to join. And she’s right. I saw all the cool kids there.

I hear mothers talk about how sacrifice is “worth it” for their kids. I especially hear this if mother’s have given up something valuable - economic independence, dreams, ambitions, time, goals, careers, autonomy, hobbies, interests, etc.
When did I - as a human being - lose my inherent value? Was it when I stopped […]
“Lifetime and our partners are dedicated to sparking a national dialogue among women and equipping them with the tools necessary to engage them in politics,” said Meredith Wagner, Executive Vice President, Public Affairs. “The bus tour was created to connect with women in their hometowns on the issues that matter most to them and to […]
In The Weekly Standard is a very interesting article, The Kindergarchy, by Joseph Epstein, which illuminates how parenting has shifted into making kids believe they are the Center of The Universe. Which is really not in their best interests.
What I have in mind is something more endemic–a phenomenon that affects large stretches of the middle […]

She’s funny and I want to see a woman actress/comic make herself a success through blogging. I just want to see it work.

Remember the Boston Tea Party?
The tag line was No Taxation without Representation!
During women’s suffrage No Taxation without Representation! was a tagline also used to get women the vote.
Of course, men’s response back then was “you don’t work, you don’t pay taxes.”
Except that now 72% of us do work and all of us […]
“Keira Knightley has refused to allow any enhancement of her cleavage on publicity photos for her upcoming movie, “The Duchess,” Britain’s Daily Mail reports via The Huffington Post.
Good. For. Keira! I agree, you ARE good enough as you are.

In honor of this season’s Bloggy Giveaways I’m giving away my copy of Mama Gena’s Owner’s and Operator’s Guide to Men.
I went to this Life Coach Shrink in Atlanta to learn about Tapping to get rid of some of my hang-ups about sex and money and marriage (before my Law of Attraction mentor Jeff Howard […]
I love what people are doing with the Internet to get themselves out there. This woman I met at BlogHer, Jessica Bern, is using her blog - BernThis - create her own television series.
She’s very funny. She’s produced these comedy shorts on her blog that you can watch for free. In one she goes […]
This is MY view from the panel. I don’t know if there is a picture of me on the panel.
So I had my big BlogHer08 speaking panel, Mirrors: Ours, The Media’s, Our Cultures’ and Our Kids’ speaking panel yesterday and it was a rush.
The panelists were Laurie Toby Edison of Body Impolitic, Tracee Sioux of […]
