Favorite school memory: informing my (male) cousin that "yes, she did, Billie Jean WON, goddammit, she WON she WON!"

Silliest academic requirement: Sophomore shorthand (because it was clear I'd make a lousy teacher and a worse nurse.)

Proof that I don't hate men:

Marriage #1 (2 yrs); husband, nice man but... he left after subtle encouragement.

Marriage #2 (6 mo); husband, very charming but a surprisingly mean drunk. He left with encouragement from the police I called to take his ass to jail. (Thank you to the officers and the county judge!)

Fuckbuddy (2 1/2 yrs): lots of fun, but had to be abandoned; he kept wanting to "talk" afterwards.

Long-term companion (18 yrs): gray, neutered male cat.

I received part of my education from extremely politically active, independent, and strong order of nuns. The best personal/professional eval I ever received, bar none, was Sister M.S, who autographed my copy of "A Room of One's Own" this way: - "Julia, you are a god-damned jewel. Love, Sister Margaret"

Country: United States
