On the one hand, the cost of being female and how things have worked makes me want to cry. On the other, the fact that this is changing is good.
Having cancer at 14 makes health insurance at 27 next to impossible unless one is in a group plan, just for the staggering cost involved.
I think instead of crying I'm going to go beat up plants in the back yard. Or clean the grill, which is almost the same, just involving less organic-y bits.
