1) I put my "I Escaped" Google-poem to music. I had to change the words a bit to make it work. And, I worked with someone who knows more about music than I do. I told him what to do. I said, "I want a punk sound." I may record it and post it at some point.
2) I gutted and cooked about 50 smelts. Delicious.
3) I ate a bison rib today. Also delicious.
4) I read the Business Section of the Globe for the first time in a long long time. I read about why the Gap is tanking. I don't really give a shit about the Gap. But it is a little bit interesting to learn about why they are in decline.
5) I watched the film, Transamerica. It's interesting. The actress is quite amazing: a woman who plays a man who wants to be a woman. That's a challenging role. After watching the movie, I was grateful that I don't want a sex change. I'm happy not to have a dick. And glad that I don't have to go through the business of explaining the whole sex-change things to others. It seems like that was painful business. My four-year old niece did ask me once "Are you a girl or a boy?" and that was kinda fun.

Did you tell your niece she was making the implicit assumption that there are only two genders?
or did you say "I think we're all on a continuum"?
I'm very encouraged by these adventurous culinary experiences!!! I've never really had either of those things!!!
As for your niece's question, perhaps this is a sign that you should remove your bandages...
A carnivore after my own heart. And speakin' from experience, I can say bison on a BBQ is tons friendlier than on the hoof.
But y'know, Ags, reading this, I'm thinking that maybe working on your intimacy issues could be as simple as re-applying your existing emotional resources. I mean, if ya can gut 50 smelts without blinking, you'd think somehow you could retask that same sang froid to discussing piercings gone ickily wrong, and Dwarfish toejam...
