I've yet to be on a campus where most women weren't worrying about some aspect of combining marriage, children, and a career. I've yet to find one where many men were worrying about the same thing.

Tomorrow evening, assuming I survive my third 12-hour day in a row, I am having dinner with a group of women that I get together with every other month or so. This started as a going-away dinner for me when my previous job so abruptly ended and has morphed into a regular outing. There are about a dozen of us in this group and we’ve struggled to come up with a name that accurately represents our diversity. Because we are all attempting, in one way or another, to find some balance in our lives, we became Women Balancing Balls (Women With Balls just seemed too harsh). I’ve totally lost my train of thought and have no idea where this was headed.

Anyway, in the spirit of female solidarity I’ve been trying to tune in to Katie Couric to see just how she’s doing and to break the stranglehold that MSNBC has on my news-watching consciousness. But, what’s with her hair? It’s all flat and stringy and stuck down with hair spray. And who is picking her hideous clothing – a cheesy purple sweater vest over a shirt that was all bunched and then a wrinkled, white blouse that was all a-kilter. And her voice? It sounds like a question is haunting the end of every statement? Is she waiting for approval or someone to nod in agreement? Other than that, she’s doing just swell. (And yes, I would comment on the male anchors’ hair, clothing and speech. Brian Williams has a grating nasal voice and I don’t even know who’s on the other network. Back to MSNBC for me.)
