Can we go out for Chinese? No. I want to we go out for Chinese? No. How come we can’t go out for Chinese? Because I just took a trip and we’re going on vacation in a month and we need to save our money. I think I need a job. I could do stuff […]
by Tracee Sioux When considering things that go into raising a confident, strong daughter having the benefit of a great dad ranks right up there. As I watched my husband twirl Ainsley around a dance floor Friday night – and even flip her around just like her Dancing With the Stars fantasy – I thought, […]
EIGHT hours later we emerged with a giant garbage bag full of trash – kindergarten papers, church papers, artwork, broken toys, mucked up play makeup, pieces of jewelry, rocks and sea shells. We also had a giant bag of clothes – clothes she’s grown out of, pants that show her panties when she sits, and […]
by Tracee Sioux Over drinks, after the convention, I spoke to young college-aged single women who voted for Obama and tried to see where they were coming from. What I saw was that they haven’t experienced sexism because they aren’t mothers yet. In the same conversation they told me about their dreams of a sexual […]
Upon my return from the Texas Democratic Convention I’m experiencing grief. I’m mourning the death of a dream. Prone to weeping. While doing my make up, driving the car, working out.

Laurie will be sitting on the BlogHer panel about […]

I am in downtown Austin at the Texas Democratic Convention. Sitting in a hotel lobby waiting for my ride. I rode the Hillary Bus. I left my suitcase on the bus, or it pulled away while I was looking at the other Democrats and spacing off. It’s coming back. I would post a picture of […]
by Tracee Sioux I’m on a bus with other political activists going to the Texas Democratic Convention in Austin. I’ll be blogging from there. I won’t go home until Sunday. A whole weekend when I can set aside my role as Mommy. It’s a Daddy Weekend. The kids will hang out with Daddy. He’ll do […]
by Tracee Sioux Guess where I am going to be tomorrow? I’m going to the Texas Democratic Convention! How many of you still feel disconnected to the political process? Perhaps this is because you’ve never attempted to get involved? Never attended a school board or city council meeting? Never gone to a caucus or a […]
By Tracee Sioux Girls suck at math and boys can’t read. Studies prove there is a gender gap in reading and math. But a new study tells us it’s not a biological fact, but one of social conditioning based in gender inequality. This matters because we have limited control over biological factors, but we can […]
