The Difference Between Cats and Dogs (or is that, Women and Men?)

 I love when this kind of stuff pops up on Tumblr. I think at some level, we're all aware of things like this, the differences between men and women. I suppose most of it is socialized into us, but I wonder how much of it is also simply genetic. I know there have been brain studies that show different parts of the brain "lighting up" according to gender, and my psychology side is always fascinated and wants to know why it happens, not just that it happened. "Nature vs Nurture" is one of my favorite studies! (I know, I'm a bit weird.) I really should have gone into research instead of studying counseling and child development. It just didn't dawn on me when I was 22.

Not that it'll make any difference, because some people are completely without empathy or even have the desire to try and understand, but I think they know when they've pissed me off!

History in Memes and Tweets






A friend sent me this after we were talking about our "misspent youth". What can I say?  It was the '80s and I had a good time!

Rainbow Connection



I challenge you to watch the video and not sing along! I grew up with Sesame Street and The Muppet Show. I do believe that was kids' T.V. done right! Their messages were always about inclusiveness--for everyone. So glad that never changed. [little blurb here]

Mixed Bag

I found it was a good week to stay off of FB as much as possible. Plus, too much worrying about my friends and family hunkered down in Florida. I offered my extra room, but...
