I will have an installment up tomorrow, but for today, while I'm doing edits on The Jasper Soul for Pride, I could use some inspiration, so of course it's time to share!

Friday Ramble
Actually, this is kind of a rant.
Today, Naomi/ST went to the post office to mail a package. She was wearing a Proud Nasty Woman shirt with a rainbow on it. When she was at the counter, she took a pen to write the address on the label. The USPS clerk took the pen back from her and handed her a pink one, and said: "Here, use this one instead. It's more feminine."
I don't care what your political views are, when you're working, you should be professional. And besides that, don't be a misogynistic douche. I have said before: I'm calmer online than in person. In this case, it's good that I wasn't there when this happened-- although I doubt he'd have done such a shit thing to an older woman. Naomi is 18, and she didn't know what to do.
Do I need to explain what I'd have done with that pink pen?
Anyway. That really pissed me off, and I have a complaint filed.
Besides that, tomorrow Naomi and I are going to take a little road trip. We're picking up one of her friends. Said friend will be staying with us for several days, and I'm glad. Naomi doesn't have many friends, and none that live in the area. The trip will be hard on her, though, and that sucks. She has seriously debilitating... TMI? Stop reading here if so IBS. We're hoping taking her pup with her on the drive will help her to be less stressed over the drive.
Other than that, it looks to be a calm weekend. I hope to write Sunday. And I hope all of y'all have a fantabulous weekend!!
