Today I got something in the mail from my boss. I wasn’t expecting anything from her, so I had no idea what was in the envelope. It turned out to be a card for my 25th work anniversary. Surprise! I had forgotten that my anniversary was this month. I would almost have preferred not to be reminded of my age and inertia, except that it was a kind and generous gift, and I am grateful. So Happy 25th Anniversary to me. But just for today. Tomorrow let’s go back to not thinking about how old I am and how long I’ve been working at the same place.

In an age when it’s obligatory to condemn the double standard wherever it rears its head, the disparity between “slut” and “player” is an embarrassment to the English language.
