2006: First lines
As seen at Raising WEG and Angry Pregnant Lawyer, the first lines from the first post in each month of the year:
- Back in November, Jody posted about a project that Forbes and Yahoo undertook to let you send an email to yourself in the future.
- Today’s book is Barack Obama’s memoir, Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance.
- I don’t have anything to add to Laura or Amanda‘s comments on Tierney’s column from Tuesday’s Times.
- I know, even I’m getting sick of hearing about mommy wars.
- As some of you guessed, the stuff going on that I couldn’t talk about is that I’m changing jobs.
- I learned via Shannon at Peter’s Cross Station that today is Blogging for LGBT Families Day.
- Via Becca at Not Quite Sure, I read Meghan O’Rourke’s commentary on Linda Hirshman’s book.
- Today’s book is a strange and compelling book, In The Little World (A True Story of Dwarfs, Love, and Trouble), by John Richardson.
- In her comment on my post about my tri, Trishka wondered: "I don’t know how you manage to do all that you do — work full time, have two small children, volunteer, and to train for a triathlon on top of it."
- Well, I can’t say I had any epiphanies while I was gone, but I think I benefited from taking a step back.
- Please vote.
- Nearly two years ago, I wrote here about rumors that the Department of Labor was going to try to roll back the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA)
