Suddenly, awkward

Posted in Life, tagged , on September 25, 2008 | 7 Comments »

I finally did it. At 32, I got braces. Not the kind that’s invisible. The kind with metal wires and clear brackets. So yes, they’re visible. And best of all I’m starting a new job on Monday. I think I had fooled myself into thinking that they’re not going to be that obvious. I guess they won’t be obvious if a person is standing at least 10 feet away from me. I survived the twenties.

That both women have vagina? That’s about the only thing that these candidates have in common. And as far as Palin’s comment about shattering the glass ceiling… I’ve got news for you lady. A woman in the VP spot does NOT shatter the glass ceiling. If she did, then Geraldine Ferraro shattered that ceiling 20 years ago on the Democratic ticket. A woman on the VP spot is just not good enough. An inexperienced woman on the VP spot is even worst. That is NOT shattering the glass ceiling.
