I just had my gallbladder removed, which hurts like a bitch, and the pain pills make me feel weird and trippy, so I haven't been taking them...so I'm confined to the house, feeling really sorry for myself, but I've been reading some really good books that I recommend:

Promiscuities: The Secret Struggle for Womanhood. Super good. It's by Naomi Wolf, my favorite writer right now, about growing up a woman during and just after the sexual revolution...which wasn't much of a revolution...it's just been a new kind of enslavement in my opinion....

The Beauty Myth, also by Naomi Wolf. I haven't started this one yet, but it's about the way society uses images of beauty to control women. Thought I'd pass the titles along. I've got some Susan Brownmiller waiting for me, too.

I think I'll go read and whine about the fucking pain.
