June 18 – June 22
“Don’t expect to get a penis every Friday, because you won’t.”
Thus spake Cassandra, introducing occasional penis Fridays, a new LWON effort, so to speak. The introductory post in the series concerned banana slug sex, which is even grosser than the sum of its parts, and that’s saying a lot.
A slightly more refined series also started this week: Galapagos Mondays. To kick it off, this week Ginny told us what donkeys and tortoises have in common with a one-woman nudist colony.
Guest Poster Meagan Phelan told us about smart clothes engineered to see and hear.
Jessa excavated the igloo; can it be reclaimed to help us adapt to climate change?
And finally, is there a better name than Rosemerry? There is not. But lest I get too envious, Christie’s post about envy reminded me that I’m barking up the wrong tree: “I’m making fun of myself and the ego’s longing to be more, to do more, to have more, more, more.” Imagine the possibility of envy as nurturing instead of toxic.
Sally, that’s a sweet comment about the name … It’s my two grandmothers, Rose and Merry. I’ve always felt pretty lucky about being their namesake … though for many years as a girl i LONGED to be named Jennifer. 🙂
