Pharonic


Goddess, I would love to have the time to hop on the train to NY and see this exhibit. Someone, and i forget who, once called Hatshepsut "the first great woman of history." True story: my son has always been delighted that he was born a boy, as I'd always wanted to name a daughter of mine Morgan Moria Hatshepsut Aurore. Fine. Laugh if you like. But she was pretty fucking impressive, was Hatshepsut.

Laugh? Hell no!

I would have been a terrible "boy" mom, I just know it. My es-husband insisted on naming the child "David Isiah Thomas" if the girl had been a boy.

So glad I don't have a little Piston running around.

I have a friend who was a fan of the Orioles. One of his sons is named Brooks, the other Cal.

Hecate, I'm going to that exhibit in NYC. At least I think I am. I'm going to lobby for it. I hope I get there, because I'm sure there are some bored gods who want to talk about how hard it is to go from living in a Pyramid to sharing an apartment in subsidized housing.
