Can't yet quite get myself to comment on the Washington Post article about the Capitol Hill sexblogger: maybe tomorrow. Am dithering on date blogging, both b/c I actually liked date boy and it seems perhaps a little unkind to blog in detail about him (other than to say, wow! that was fun!) b/c, though it's unlikely to happen, if he runs across this he might be embarassed if he recognizes himself. Also because I am feeling paranoid today about what if someone from work found this blog: the anecdotes I relate about collegial conversations would peg me pretty quick if the right person read this. Ambivalent about that and will perhaps blog it someday, but not now lest it raise the anonymous ghost again.

Instead, I will pretend that I am a man and add to my blogroll. Isn't the whole male vs. female blog bullshit supposed to say that men are all about the networking and linkage and women are all about the private diarykeeping? Maybe I'm not ovulating after all. Or maybe fucking around is merely an expression of penis envy. You decide.

And on that note, I wanna call all y'all's attention especially to The Well-Timed Period, over there under "Procrastination Tools": fascinating blog about all things menstrual, birth-controlly, and obstetric-gynecological. Really good read. Also over there is The Lowland Seed, an odd blog by some guy who talks about sex a lot: I haven't decided what I think about it but he linked me (always a good thing, in this manly world of blogrolling), and I am intrigued by my own inability to figure out what to make of him.

Also, of course, many many more academicish bloggers of all stripes. 'Specially useful: George H. Williams' palimpsest, tucked in the middle of the academic blog list under his regular blog: lots of interesting teaching ideas in there. I heart George (wait, does that make me male or female? Is George gay? I can't remember if it's ever come up.) The Little Professor has a really smart entry on "advice to graduate students about book-buying" that I wish I had read when I was in grad school. Other academic blog notes: there was one interesting blog, called "academia," that I wanted to add but accidentally lost the linkage: if the blog owner (or someone else) wants to give it to me, I'll add it. Also, haven't yet added All Day Permanent Red (not a menstrual blog, title notwithstanding) because it doesn't seem to be loading for me tonight: will add it as soon as I can get my hands back on it, though, b/c again, very good blog, so consider this a pre-nouncement of sorts that linkage will show up in the next day or so.

And in the "Liberal Bias" section, Trish Wilson, with the funniest damn catblog picture I think I've ever seen.
