Peanut Butter

I'm working on a small project for fun.
I'm making my roommates help me make a mock-umentory about Mildred Rutherford.
We are such dorks. I love it.

Mildred Rutherford is this woman from the late 19th century. She was one of the major contributors to the UDC and felt it her life long duty to make sure the South was portrayed in a truly romanticized way. She was a crazy bitch. I love it.

She was born after the civil war, but was ALL ABOUT IT.

She died in the early 20th century...but I think even though she stood for like 99% of things I don't believe in...I like that they never got the old broad down. She stuck to her cause...which is way more than a lot of people can say. I respect that.

I'm looking forward to this, and I'm going to work on writing the script.

It's just remarkable how dorky I am. I mean we learned about this woman in 2 of my Women's History courses. I just can't shake the classes.
I learned SO much, and these people were really affecting me the whole time, I just didn't know they were there! I guess they're just going to keep me going, and I'll look for the women of the past to give me inspiration and stories for the future.

Thanks Dr. Case...you've created monsters.

Well I'm gonna go check out the Bonny Hunt show and get some writing DID.
