Jun. 19th, 2003 03:01 pmVarious fic ideas:
A world without textiles. Nudists.
Macho Merry/Pippin. Sitting round, cleaned up after the taking of Isengard, having dinner, smoking, snogging. Just doing guy-hobbit stuff. No toe-licking. Ewww.
Raging headache from a feminist parenting discussion that claimed women who didn't make enough to take care of their families were slacking and worthless. Hello, if I made enough to take care of a family, I wouldn't need a husband. (Despite loving hubby, I'm not even sure I'd want a husband if I could make it on my own)
Their arguments are the exact flip-side of the guy who said women should not be educated because if they are able to take care of themselves, they are more likely to divorce.
Both sides give me a headache, both piss me off, and both devalue the nonpaid work done in running a household. There has to be a middle ground between "One size career fits all, even when it doesn't." and "Chain the bitch to the stove so she don't run away."
Maybe I've been drinking too much diet pop. I'm very irascible.

Evening stuff
Jun. 19th, 2003 09:05 pmOur DVD player came!
We watched Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. Lucius Malfoy is sex in boots, with a cruelly expressive mouth. I want him. I want to stroke his hair and be made to lick the snake-head on his cane.
(My sister says i need to work on my Electra issues, what is it with me and evil older men?)
And Tom Riddle is far too lickable for 16.
( And if I looked like this i could have them )
Also, working on translating knotwork to crochet. First piece turned out interesting. 9x3 grey strip with a simple 2 strand twist. Not too hard. Gonna try something more complex next, a basic knot.
Must put clothes in dryer and try for Legolas/Gimli lovin'.
