While reading the sunday times

on saturday, I came across these two stories:

  1. The use of the word vajayjay to describe vagina or vulva. Ever since it was uttered on Grey’s Anatomy back in 2006, it has been getting more and more popular. This is mostly because Oprah thinks it sounds like a “nice word.” Yeah.
  2. Elizabeth Wurtzel goes to law school and we care enough to write a whole article about it because….?!?!?! I think its cool and all that shes starting a new chapter of her career but I’m failing to see how this warrants a NYTimes article. Her book More Now Again did really move me when I read it after attempting to read Bitch. And I certainly did like it more than Prozac Nation. Whether she likes it or not, she is one of the leading founders of the confessional chick lit movement in literature/memoir. With that, it would be intriguing to see if she does decided to write about the law school experince as a returning student at age forty. Now that would have been a worthy article.
