Yesterday at work I managed to remain relatively cool, calm, and collected while someone (a male someone, of course) told me that Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is “frail.” Apparently he saw her in action recently (#jealous) and she was barely visible on the other side of the bench and her voice was very quiet.

In case you, too, are a soft-spoken, diminutive woman and you’re wondering whether you’ll amount to anything in this world full of big, loud men…allow me to draw your attention to a certain Supreme Court justice who can do 20 pushups.

I had to make a hard decision recently. I had to break up with winter. Actually, I suppose it was a pretty easy decision. Some relationships are just not meant to last, and for me and winter, time had run out. Back in November, we were all flirty and cuddly. Then we spent the holidays together (things got serious pretty fast). But by late January, the honeymoon phase was over. All those things I used to find so cute about winter started getting annoying. The cold wasn’t brisk anymore. The snow started looking dingy. I thought maybe we could rekindle the romance over Valentine’s Day, but it didn’t happen.

All I wanted was a bouquet of a dozen roses. Roses that were grown on a rose bush. A rose bush that was able to grow and bloom because it’s actually spring. In hindsight, I can see how this request might have offended winter, which is probably why it backfired. Now winter has totally frozen me out. (Get it?)

I’m not in to drama queens, so I had to call it quits. For real this time. The problem is, winter’s pretty clingy, so it’s probably going to keep begging me to take it back for a few more weeks. Ugh. RELATIONSHIPS. Right?
