kalmn: (displeased)
i am so so so so sick of stories in the paper about men abusing their wives and children, the wives getting a restraining order, the men getting jail time, the men killing their wives and children, and the wives being posthumously lectured on not reaching out for help.

'"I would plead with anybody who is suffering, even a small bit in a home where there's domestic violence, to please reach out for help," Banovetz said.'

her case wasn't presented to prosecutors. it was treated as a misdeameanor, not a felony. she did everything right, and the system failed her.

kalmn: (here i am!)
worked, went to monstersocks and coprock's house with the juggler. made doro wat and gomen wat. asked on twitter for cooking advice. got some promptly. snapped at friend on twitter. stopped twittering until after i'd eaten. ate. ate fabulously. i am so so so full of good doro wat. plus now i have berbere. the store really only wanted to sell me three pounds of it, but no, i asked them to please sell me not so very much.

if you have had ethiopian food before, doro wat is the chicken one with the hardboiled egg. nom nom nom. i am so full of spicy chicken goodness that i have no brain.
