Where are all the single ladies?

I love strong female characters in books and movies and television shows. I love strong male characters too, but I can identify with a female character who is both confident and feminine.

Home is the best place when you’re sick

Behold! The location I haven’t left since last Thursday night. I’ve been wrapped up in my old quilt with my blanket, my inhaler, a bottle of water, and (most recently) a jar of Vicks vapor rub. At long last, I’m starting to fill somewhat human again, though I still sound like a bass singer in…
