Guys and Dolls

Okay BO gang, I need you to put your thinking caps on (I’ve definitely lost mine, somewhere between a second- or was it third?- glass of wine. Mom thought it would be a good idea to finish off the bottle in the fridge…oops)

Really, I’m supposed to be preparing for my tutorial on Tuesday and we’re doing a Chapter on ‘Sex, Gender and Sexuality’. One of my goals of the lesson is a re-thinking of our gender stereotypes by exploring the way we are socialized to perform our particular gender role. Actually, I’m sure you don’t really care about that, and all I really need from you is to START those gender stereotypes for our exercise:

I’ve got two lists, ‘boys’ and girls’ and I need you to come up with some characteristics that are usually attributed to one or the other. For example, boys are tough, girls are delicate, boys get angry, girls get moody- they don’t have to be opposites (although sometimes that helps to think of them!), someone could do a whole list of ‘boys’ attributes, but see what you can come up with!

Thanks!

HAPPY 20TH RACHEL!!

Monday, October 02, 2006

As Ashley and I parted ways at the end of our shift this afternoon I had to admit that summer was really over. We're almost at the end of the Summer Festival run, and while discussing the upcoming schedule in drizzly almost mitten weather, we realized we won't work again until next Monday, a week from now. In the last three months, we probably haven't gone more than a day without being in the Box Office together. I'm sure she'll be fine, but how will I cope being there Friday, all by myself, without her answers to my panicked questions (oh, actually, I did have one more about winter Air Miles...) or her giggles to go along with my stories of the evening before, or her dogged determination and detective skills to solve a problem I gave up on hours ago? Really, how am I going to survive without any of you?!

Somehow, every winter, we do survive, enjoying the busy days and call in shifts that remind us of summer, as well as the gatherings and movie nights that let us socialize, without the threat of patron updating hanging over us.

So here's to another summer, and to the girl who keeps things running behind the scenes!
