Compulsory Heterosexuality
More than one student has told me how Adrienne Rich's Reflections on "Compulsory Heterosexuality" changed their lives. I was thinking of that today when I was looking for a card to celebrate our newlywed colleague T and her wife whom K and I were taking out to dinner. Even bunnies and birds were pretty gendered, and it took me longer than usual to find a nice card. Between that and having to read a whole Elle article on my phone before I could pick a nice champagne in our budget, I spent way too much time at the store. Ha.

I was trying to take a picture of early morning bougainvillea and jasmine, when I noticed... SNOW????!!! WTH, Michigan?

That girl lovvvvvvvvves her dada
Not this adorable girl in the foreground whose new Amelie-style haircut we were trying to document... (She loves her dada, but reserves her lovvvvvvvvvve for mama.) Talking about the other adorable girl--in the background--looking up at her dada all heart-eyes-emoji style._

Lift
You said to sing with you:
I start off like a boat
dropped into the water
turning round and round
worrying and wondering
at the same movement
until I catch the uplift
and the current leads us and
we're at the top of the next note
floating, the size of an insect
which then washes over, catching
us in the clear curl of the wave
* I don't know where this came from, but I will say Nu and I have perfected the howl part of Lady Gaga's shalalalalalalow, and sing it every time we're on our way to school.
