On Really Good Books About Real People: Part Four
A family friend gave me West With The Night when I was in high school; I have the same copy on my bookshelf now and I'm almost thirty. It is a very good read, and has a similar spareness to it's prose as Hemingway has. Definitely worth reading.

On Maurice Sendak, 1928 - 2012
I was lucky enough to have Sendak as my college graduation speaker in 2004. He gave a really awesome speech where he basically ordered us to go out and change the world for the better, since Bush had done so much to fuck it up. He was an amazing guy.

On Back in My Day, A Serving of Wine Was Two Ounces
I love that 1) there are no breast implants 2) there are boobs smaller than a C cup 3)at least some of the models look to be in their 30's.
Plus the wispy ringlets of hair that I secretly wish I could wear every day.

On O.B. Ups the Ante
So I have a Diva Cup and a Keeper Cup. Diva is silicone, Keeper is latex. There is a small size difference, but the main thing is that the Keeper is much more rigid than the Diva. This works better for me because with the Diva I had a lot of problems with leaks (I guess I sit in weird positions?). The Keeper has worked beautifully. They do have very different cleaning instructions (Diva=boil, Keeper=wash), and obviously the Keeper won't work for anyone with a latex allergy.

@fishiefishfish I have a really tiny apartment too (183 sq. ft). I have a loft bed though, so no one can see when I don't make it.
