brain dump

I should be doing math homework. Today we talked about sine and cosine and how to find the length of an arc, t, on the unit circle. It involves Trig, and I actually kind of get it without pounding it into my brain, a first for me in Pre-Calc

I'm not comfortable with you trying to find the length of an Arc.

I sentence you to three quarters of Pre-Calc for this comment.

For what it's worth, I've never felt connected to "women" as a whole. I've always felt like an island.

That said, I bet I'd feel similarly about your book, even though I grew up very comfortable. My parents owned a home and my mother took me shopping for new clothes every school year and we had a pool in the backyard. They bought me a car, even though they made me learn how to work on it first. My folks were pretty well to do, back in the day, way more well to do than I am today. They were wealthier than I will probably ever be - does anybody get rich in "human services?"

But I also think that in many ways, my life is richer. I don't actually mind buying my clothing at Value Village. I don't mind buying everything in bulk and using the shit out of my freezer. I can keep my kid clothed and my family warm and fed (albeit barely) and I feel proud of that.

And you should, too.
