Flouridation of water

Today I did many things. Sort of. I went to school to have a talk with a professor. I turned in homework since I missed all of my classes yesterday with a 10 hours sinus headache. I booked a room for a reception following the wedding of d00m. Did you know that Gad is one of the sons of Zilpah? I did. Read yer Genesis 30. Gad was also a Hebrew prophet. Read yer Samuel. Numero Dos. I'm watching Dr. Strangelove. Top Secret. I need to write a paper by Tuesday on Gilead. I could write about Zero or The Known World, but I'd much rather write about Gilead, though I haven't a lot to say at the moment. Allergies are kicking my ass. I don't look good in dresses. Once I finish all my finals, there are half a zillion books I want to read. Moving soon. I wish I had enough time to learn to write with my left hand.

An imitation Christ

A spider just descended upon me. From above. It was white. Long-legged. Delicately brushing my bangs. A fucking horror. I yelled. So very loudly. I hope the neighbors didn't hear. When I was young, I once yelled because a spider was crawling toward my foot. The neighbors called the police, who came and circled the house, guns drawn. Their response was admirable, but I do not think they fully understood the gravity of the situation when explained to them after they verified my safety. This was similar, only worse. The spider touched me. It brushed me. It was soon dead on the floor beneath my Shaq shoe. It broke the treaty. I suspect it was offended by a post of mine from September, 2006 which I had just read only a half hour earlier. Who are you? What do you want?

Language of orientation

"Religion is a framing mechanism...a language of orientation that presents itself as a series of questions. It talks about the arc of life and the quality of experience in ways that I’ve found fruitful to think about." -Marilynne Robinson

We all wanna save the world

...but I'm gonna do it.
