You know you’re a fan when you can decipher who this is without thinking about it while scrolling through your dashboard.

- Interviewer: Did you worry about your sister?
- Sara: I think early in life I took it on that, “Okay, Tegan’s a spazz and I probably need to carry her through life.” I think that really bothers her, so I try to keep in mind that she’s a functioning adult who’s managed to get through life without me by her side all the time.I know when we first got off the road and she got out of the relationship, she was pretty manic, going from happy to depressed. I went to Vancouver and she looked different to me. Like, she was wearing different clothes. I showed up at her house really late and she hadn’t prepared at all. There was a mattress downstairs I had to carry up, and I was sleeping in this storage closet with dirty instrument cases in it. I just remember being totally overwhelmed by this swelling anxiety because, beside the fact that I was completely displaced and uncomfortable, I was like, “What is going on? Is she doing crack?!” I had to realize, “This is her life and she has to figure it out for herself. I can’t move in and take care of her.” I remember when I got back I told our mom how worried I was about Tegan and she said, “What, you don’t think she was worried about you when you ran off to Montreal and didn’t call anybody?” I was like, “Oh yeah… right.”

When things in your life seem, almost too much to handle,
When 24 Hours in a day is not enough,
Remember the mayonnaise jar and 2 cups of coffee.
A professor stood before his philosophy class
and had some items in front of him.
When the class began, wordlessly,
He picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar
And proceeded to fill it with golf balls.
He then asked the students, if the jar was full.
They agreed that it was.
The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured
them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly.
The pebbles rolled into the open Areas between the golf balls.
He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was.
The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar.
Of course, the sand filled up everything else.
He asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with a unanimous ‘yes.’
The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar, effectively
filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed.
‘Now,’ said the professor, as the laughter subsided,
‘I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life.
The golf balls are the important things - family,
children, health, Friends, and Favorite passions –
Things that if everything else was lost and only they remained, Your life would still be full.
The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, house, and car.
The sand is everything else —The small stuff.
‘If you put the sand into the jar first,’ He continued,
there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls.
The same goes for life.
If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff,
You will never have room for the things that are important to you.
So…
Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.
Play With your children.
Take time to get medical checkups.
Take your partner out to dinner.
There will always be time to clean the house and fix the disposal.
‘Take care of the golf balls first —
The things that really matter.
Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.
One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffee represented.
The professor smiled
‘I’m glad you asked’.
It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem,
There’s always room for a couple of cups of coffee with a friend.’

- I saw this article:
- http: //www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/02/29/gay-activists-grandparents-marriage-equality_n_1310537.html
- earlier this afternoon and I got suddenly curious how my 86yo grandmother felt about marriage equality and LGBT rights. Since she's often hilarious, I decided to interview her on the phone and post it here. I put it on speakerphone, recorded it, then transcribed it. She's in Miami, and Cuban-born, so this is translated from Spanish. She's a pretty feisty lady. I want to be her when I grow up. Here's what she said:
- Me: Grandma, what do you think about this couple in their 90s supporting their gay grandkids in the fight for marriage equality?
- Grandma: I think it's very nice. You have to support your family, no matter who they are. You can't reject people for things like that.
- Me: If you had gay or lesbian family, would you do the same?
- Grandma: I don't know if I could make a video like those people. They speak English.
- Me: What about in Spanish? Would you make videos supporting marriage equality in Spanish.
- Grandma: Ay... don't get any ideas. I don't want to make a video.
- Me: But is it okay if I post this on the Internet? On one of my websites
- Grandma: Ignorant people might yell at you.
- Me: Oh, that's okay, I don't mind.
- Grandma: Yes, you can put what I said on the Internet.
- Me: Okay. So do you support gay and lesbian people getting married?
- Grandma: I think gay people should be able to get married. Times have changed. Even my ideas have changed. There used to be a lot of ignorance and rumors about gay people, mostly because they had to live in hiding, you know, you couldn't be yourself out in public like they can be sometimes now. So I think people just made things up. But think gay people should be allowed to live their lives like everyone else.
- Me: Would you go to a gay wedding?
- Grandma: Yes, I would. It would probably be more lively than a regular one. I hate weddings. They're so boring.
- Me: They really are. What do you think about people who protest gay marriage?
- Grandma: Oh. Idiots.
- Me: They're wrong?
- Grandma: Idiots. Dumb people with nothing better to do. Out of all the things to protest. They should be out trying to do some good in the world instead.
- Me: Do you think you would have felt the same way when you were my age?
- Grandma: (Pauses) I don't think I gave it any thought. People didn't talk about these things back then. There was a lot of ignorance. Everybody knew gay people, of course, but people didn't talk about it in normal conversation, much less in public like on the news now. I think that's good. Talking is always good. When people know things, they can make up their own minds.I would like to think that maybe with a little information and thinking about it, I would feel the same way.
- Me: Do you think gay people should be able to adopt kids?
- Grandma: Of course.
- Me: As a Christian, what do you think the Bible says about gay people?
- Grandma: The Bible is very clear that Jesus doesn't care about race or gender or where you came from or anything. He loves everyone.
- Me: What about the parts of the Bible that says gay people should be stoned to death?
- Grandma: We don't stone people to death anymore...
- Me: So you don't think that applies?
- Grandma: I think God gave us some common sense to be able to figure out what parts were meant for forever, like "don't kill" and "don't steal" and "be good to people," and what parts were just a record of the society people lived in back then. We don't hide women in the dark during their periods anymore, either. Things like that.
- Me: What about gays in the military? Do you think that should be allowed?
- Grandma: You know, when I heard President Obama had helped made that legal, I was surprised it already wasn't. If you're willing to pick up a gun and go fight in some war somewhere for my freedom, I'm not willing to do that, so if you are, I don't care if you have a boyfriend or a girlfriend or fifteen cats.
- Me: Yeah, I think most people supported that one.
- Grandma: It's like I told you. God gave us common sense for a reason.
- Me: I know you've had a few close gay male friends. Have you ever had a lesbian friend?
- Grandma: I did in Cuba. She was my neighbor and she did everyone's hair on the block. You couldn't really tell she was a lesbian, but she told me, after many years of knowing her.
- Me: What do you mean by "you couldn't tell she was a lesbian?"
- Grandma: Well, she was very glamorous. She looked like a movie star all the time - that's why she did everyone's hair. Some lesbians, you can tell.
- Me: In English, they call the ability to tell if someone's gay "gaydar." Like "radar" but for "gay."
- Grandma: Oh! I think I have that.
- Me: You think you have good gaydar?
- Grandma: Well, I was an artist, so I was around a lot of gay men. And I can usually tell, but Paula fooled me.
- Me: The slang term for lesbians who are very conventionally feminine in English is "lipstick lesbian."
- Grandma: She did wear lipstick!
- Me: Do you think a lot of older people think like you do?
- Grandma: I think so. A lot of older people keep up with the news better than you think. And you get to be my age and you realize a lot of past mistakes in your thinking. You realize that a lot of things you think mattered, really don't. And the people who don't think like that, it's mostly because they don't know any better. But even at my age, people can be taught.
- Me: Thank you, Pupa.
- Grandma: You should show me your website when you put this up. I hope a lot of people read it.
