On Thanksgiving
Nov. 26th, 2013 14:16I've been buried in work and also frenetically trying to Do Stuff on the Weekends, but I'm still here, and still reading! Hopefully entries about, you know, my life and or what I read will resume soon--maybe even tonight.
In the meantime, I just read the New York Times article "The Changing American Family" and really liked it. It explores a lot of demographic trends, including those towards "voluntary kinship" (aka families of choice) and the heinous fact that so many American families are dealing with the incarceration of a parent. I hope all of you can be where you want to be on Thanksgiving, and if you can't, that you can escape back to better people and places as soon as possible.
