oh, you. your scrapbooking story makes me laugh so much 'cause i really had no idea what a phenomenon this whole scrapbooking thing had become, until last winter when i went to my coworker's house and she showed me some of the stuff she was putting together. little white boys carrying school bags. little white girls in skirts. but instead of starting the fuck patriarchy scrapbooking store, maybe you could use stuff of yours... i save movie stubs and concert programs and scraps of fabric and ribbons and stuff from our life and glue them in with the pictures. okay, the fuck patriarchy store is a much better idea, you're right!

i'd buy a ton of your 'fuck patriarchy' stickers! and screw diaryland survivor. you're a founding member of SNDP survivor. which isn't really survivor, but it sounded good. :) love ya. now to reply bethany's comment: anyone is free to decide for themselves at what precise moment "life begins." but that's a world of difference from a political discussion of whether or not to outlaw all medical and surgical procedures to terminate pregnancy and a woman's fundamental right to make these decisions for herself. also, the VAST majority of late term abortions are performed under emergency or otherwise extreme circumstances. and in most of those cases, the child could NOT survive outside.

if the health of the mother is at risk because of dangers associated with continued pregnancy (and truly has nothing to do with 'not wanting' the child), i'm curious as to why the baby can't be delivered via c-section. by the time partial birth (or d&x, i think the more sanitary term is) abortions are performed, the baby is almost without exception capable of surviving outside of the womb. untold numbers of wanted babies are alive today, though they were delivered sometimes far earlier than these unwanted babies. if delivery is the risk, the same is true. in /any/ case, i have to ask... when does life begin?

J. and I have just been laughing our asses off about scrapbooking stores and the very specific demographic they cater to / promote. I have been too much of a snob to set foot in one so far, but I would totally spend three hundred dollars in one trip to yours, especially if there was a feminist reading circle every month. And by the way, I once got to do a reading during a lesbian Wiccan handfasting in the redwoods, and aside from feeling that you were once again reading my inner diary . . . well, it was as great as you'd think. (They now have a three-year-old son "by" one of our dearest gay-man friends!)

they really should give you a reinvite to DS6, since you deserve every bit to not be a replacement person...

Oh lordy, I just caught your Dollywood entries. :D I grew up in East Tennessee and worked in Pigeon Forge up until last year when I moved far away. Your entries got me geared up for my visit home next week. Ah, the horrific traffic, the Jesus idiots, and then wonderful food! Calhoun's is probably #1 on my list of places to eat while I'm home. Excellent story-telling. :D

I *completely* agree with you on the ol' Great Pretender. That image of him signing the bill was enough to make me want to throw my monitor across the room. Too bad it's 50 pounds and I can't really lift it by myself, much less throw it. ;)

That is the BEST business idea I've ever heard! I want to be your business partner. I have no money though.
