two things that are awesome, and one that is not
1: Betty Dodson draws the internal clitoris:
2: Geostationary Banana over Texas
What is not awesome: midterm papers that don't write themselves. It's not like I haven't given this one ample time to do so (why do you think my website got rearranged this week? procrastination, baby!) but it seems I'm going to have to do it myself after all. Again.

I'm worried about the banana project; I'm not sure I trust engineers who spell engineering "engeneering".
But that's just me.

You know, you could probably just download a paper off the internet but I guess that's not too "ethical." Whatevs.
Thanks for sharing the Betty video. I always read her column in Bust and, while I don't always completely agree with her advice, I do think she's a great role model and teacher for women. You can't go wrong with anyone who promotes masterbation as much as she does!

oh em gee that was such an awesome vid! Thanks!
And term papers take for-EVER to write. Even if you're writing about something you like. Good luck to you. I managed to convince my teachers to let me draw comics instead of writing papers. =) For some classes.

good luck on your papers :)

I always found it helpful in grad school to put something like "Apocalypse Now" (edited version) on in the background, grit teeth, put on war face, and write the damn paper in one sitting. Of course, ahem, I cannot condone this; I can only report it.

thanks for the betty dobson video.... amazing! (also perfect for those of us who are also procrastinating from final essay writing - much better than, say, baking - which i have been doing a lot of lately.)

That was great. I can't wait to share it with everyone! Good luck on your mid-terms papers.

"I must say I'm quite fond of the little butty hole. It's cute." - classic.
That was really very interesting. Thanks for sharing. I learned something new about myself today.

Yay! My partner Hagan and I created this video for Betty and are thrilled people are enjoying and sharing it.
We are also creating a documentary about Betty's life that you should look out for if you are interested.

i love it when she says "oh i just cant control myself" as she draws the heart shape, lol. this is very cool. i think many women balk at the thought that they get "erections" too. i imagine our guys wouldnt like that terminology in reference to ourselves. ;)
