a blog by Kim Russell

When I am an old woman I shall wear pink.

As of today, my presidential voting record is: Clinton, Clinton, Bush, Kerry (ugh), McCain, Obama, Clinton. And on the NJ side, I voted for Jon Corzine and then Chris Christie. Twice. Yep. So trust and believe that I am truly someone who tries really hard to see all sides of an issue, AND someone who has issues with both sides of the aisle.

But when this:

Women’s March, January 2017.


This:

International Women’s Day, March 2017.


And this:

ACLU card, March 2017


Happens in the course of three months to someone who once wrote a War-on-Christmas-adjacent rant, you can safely assume that I feel something is SERIOUSLY broken.

At this rate I’ll be full-on Communist by the time I’m 60.

    I haven’t voted for a GOP presidential candidate or Senator, but I have voted Republican locally. I’m issue-driven but it’s pretty fair to say I am quite progressive in my views. That being said I have huge issues with both parties and something is F’d and must be fixed. These people work FOR us and they have forgotten that.

Hello!

About Me

I've been blogging for over twenty (2 decades! 2-0!) years and I'm apparently one of the few over-50 female bloggers who haven't sold out to THE MAN yet; hence this blog remains quirky, homespun, and unprofitable. No big. However, if you're from Disney, Doritos, or Dave Matthews Band, I'm open to talk about selling out.

I live in Southern New Jersey with my husband WM, and our dog Murphy. I'm an adult who likes Disney but not a Disney Adult. I used to work a fun (really!) office job in Philadelphia, but since March of 2020 I'm a work from home hermit. So if you're looking for a childless, slightly round, marginally boring GenX woman's blog to follow, you've come to the right place! :)

Well, that happened.
