Tonight, I made cookies for my co-worker's birthday -- I'll bring them to the office tomorrow. I enjoy making cookies, even though I always burn them, dammit. But I'm looking forward to sharing my gingerbread camels. (He just came back from a trip to Mecca. They're camels. Get it?)
What's a drag is that at the last moment, I'm wondering whether it's a good idea to bring them to work. Do I really want to seem so girly? Even more dangerous: so
motherly?And then I turn to Huffington Post for my late-night political candy and see this:
Michelle Obama Wears Big, Bold Necklace To Ted Kennedy Birthday Concert.
I just imagine how that highly intelligent, supremely accomplished woman must feel having her necklaces analyzed. (Which necklace do you prefer? Answer our poll!) Seriously, even on the White House Web site, you find a line
like this: "Michelle got one great thing out of working for a corporate law firm-that's where she met her husband, Barack. "
What to do? I dunno. Do you? At least we're in good company.
