femminista: thoughts of a feminist rhetorician

While peace would certainly make the world a better place and after last night's speech by Gen. Wesley Clark, I believe that electing him to political office would make the world a better place, there are some other things that I think would (at least) improve my world and I intend to list them here.

1. Serial number stickers: All items that come with serial numbers should come with extra stickers. You can put one in your planner and the other on the item in question, specifically software cds. Am I the only person incapable of putting software back in it's cd case? Surely, I am not the only person who loses serial numbers. Well, here's a brilliant thought--a serial number sticker could go on the cd and while, granted, you'd need to take the cd out of the drive to read it, at least you'd have it when you needed it.

For almost everything in my life that I enjoy, I experience a large dose of guilt. Often that guilt comes from the disparity between who I am and who I think that I ought to be; my love of bags is no exception.

As I try to come to terms with the fact that I am deeply entrenched in a capitalist world and become a more organized (and by extension happier, better-adjusted, more productive) human being, I am constantly assuaged by my love of things. And one of the things that I love most of all is the bag.
