When will Men be Men?

Yesterday, I sent an email to a male manager. It was very direct and maybe a little stern. I just wanted to get my point across. I even read it to one of my male co workers to see if it was too over the top and he said it was not.

So I sent it.

Today, my male manager visits me in my office, closes the door and while choking back tears tells me that he deserves respect. I wanted to roll my eyes so bad. If he really wanted my respect, he would have just taken note of my email.

Tears were in his eyes!!!!! He couldn't talk or colect his thoughts because he was so upset!!!

Some people will say men will be men if ladies would be ladies. I think i conduct myself in a very lady like way. I can cook, I wear dresses and I know the proper way to get in and out of a car.

I am calling out to all men... roughen up you hands, get dirty, wear a flannel shirt and suck it up, buttercup!

Brotherly love


Have you ever smiled at a concert? Like, beemed as if you just got a pony for your birthday? If you haven't you should see The Avitt Brothers. The recordings are great but unitl you see them live you probably won't beem. If you like the kind of music that makes a northerner jealous for roots in the rich soil of the south. It's not fabricated Nashville twang, it's music derived from the winds that come down from the apalachian mountians.

I felt the brotherly love Friday night.
