Ah...for a minute I thought you walked out on Info (I missed the 'for' in the first part of the sentence) and was wondering how you were sounding so okay!

Yay! If you end up liking Strayed's writing, she's also got a collection of her Rumpus columns in 'Tiny, Beautiful Things' -- the writing is simply superb.

As for current T -- ah, where do I start on her insularity? I sometimes feel like I'm flung back to some Victorian era morality of How-Women-Should-Be when I'm in session (she actually uses the word 'wild' in a pejorative way to state her opinion on things women do [such as riding motorcycles] that she most certainly disapproves of).
Thanks for this!
