I'm sure everyone has heard about love/lust-struck astronaut lady

I'd like to extend a letter of thanks to her.
I'd like to thank her for proving that women are unstable.
I'd like to thank her for making the point that women can't possibly hold jobs in a scientific field, because they will become enamoured with someone.
I'd like to thank her for becoming enamoured with not just anyone, but a colleague.
The problem?
She goes bananas, hunts down another woman, and tries to kill her. All while wearing a diaper.

What does this mean for me?

People are going to think because I've got a vagina and am interested in sciencey things, I'm going to engage in insane activities that can only be tied to the fact that because I am female, I am unstable.

Lisa Nowak, I, Jessica Harper, would like to extend my thanks to you for making my life as an aspiring engineer just that much more difficult.

Hey, now.
Though I completely understand and don't blame you for how you feel,
let me tell you,

I am SO glad that she did that.
You have NO IDEA.

I have a hard time thinking about people based on gender, so my first thought was "an ASTRONAUT went crazy over love". Which personally, I've had a bad past when it comes to love (which I will be sharing later on in my entries). So knowing that some as educated and intelligent and determined and so on, despite all those things, she still went crazy because of love... Well, let's just say it made ME feel better about myself. Especially since I didn't go to THAT far.

On behalf of the astronaut lady, I'd just like to say...
You're very very welcome.
You saw that coming, didn't you? ;]

When police arrested Nowak, they took from her a BB pistol, a new steel mallet, a folding knife with a four-inch blade, rubber tubing, several large plastic garbage bags and a few pairs of Latex gloves.

ROFLMAO
