Woman, or more precisely put, perhaps, marriage, is the representative of life with which you are meant to come to terms.

My house is my refuge, an emotional piece of architecture, not a cold piece of convenience.

My birthday is always around Thanksgiving, and I always had to have turkey on my birthday. My mom was always, 'Let's celebrate your birthday on Thanksgiving.' My other siblings got to have special dinners they liked. I resented turkey. For a long time, I hated turkey. I've kind of gotten over it.
