Well, after my entire life without one, I have an office.
It’s still a pretty messy work in progress, as you can see, but so is my entire life! LOL
I am not sure if I particularly need an office, but it is nice to have one spot in the house where all the decorating is 100% chosen by me. AND, as you can possibly see, the decorating is a mixture of my love for my daughter and my love for feminism.
And my BFF from elementary school gave me the most wonderful birthday presents, one I will wear in the room, and one I have used to decorate the room, and I’m going to frame the damn packaging too!
For all my fellow moms of daughters out there…
If you are parenting a daughter and you’re not a feminist… you need to be. Especially if you want your daughter to have control over her own body, and to not be paid 70 grand for a job a man gets paid 100 grand for.
My Christmas wishes for the coming year…
For Trump not to be re-elected (though I have little hope on this one as Santa is a fat old white man who enslaves diminutive indigenous people)
For the ERA to be ratified.
Women, you know, *hold up half the sky.
(*Perhaps the one concept Mao got right in his long disastrous life!)
In praise of sacred spaces! Places to create, meditate, write, play! Now, finish the damn novel! You’ve had 5 years!

Yes, and he insists on sitting dangerously close to the chair wheels. I have rolled over his tail once! Horrifying!
