omg you guys
i just found all these secret comments that y'all left for me that i never approved because i completely FORGOT that i had changed the comments settings to allow everyone to comment, pending approval.
so thank you, kamber, rian, keri, chris, ryan, & jackie. and no thank you to the millions of spam comments those real comments were buried amongst. i really need to find an easy way to allow everyone to comment while keeping out spam. but for now, you shouldn't have to login to comment.
ALSO i earned $30 yesterday for sticking my hand in 3.9 degrees Celsius water for five minutes in the name of research.

you have opinions. it's okay.
this video was posted on feministing and it really made me think. you can say what you want about not having the time to talk to strangers on the street, the interviewer being an attractive woman so straight guys want to talk to her, guys just want to be on teevee, etc. but i think that's beside the point.
especially when after having a conversation with my roommate about how maybe the women just didn't want to be on teevee but secretly had opinions, i realized that SHE refuses to ever discuss her political opinions (even with her friends!).
i've definitely got better at expressing myself as i've grown up, but it doesn't hurt to be reminded to speak up. so that's why i'm posting this. as a reminder to myself and maybe you. fight the patriarchy!

an annoying thing:
thomas' bagels have high fructose corn syrup in them. is that really necessary?
pepperidge farm bagels fortunately do not, but laverdes only had plain and sesame left and i am an everything girl.
