What I'm Thinking | Thursday 7.29.10 am
I’m thinking that there are many of you wondering wtf I’m doing …or if, in fact, I’m actually doing anything anymore; it’s as if I’ve disappeared, or at least my writing has.
I’m still here.
Sometimes regular life is more important than aspirations.
I’m spending the summer with Wendy Jr. (which I love! we are such goofballs) and I am still...

What I'm Thinking | Monday 7.26.10 am
I’m thinking we should stop listening/reading what everyone else is saying is the best way to be better/more productive/get in shape/ feel better/ get more shit done/ and so on and just listen to yourself.
I
am
not
you.
I’m sure we could all spend more time finding out the best way we work/play/think/are productive and less time comparing our own oddnesses with other peoples...
What I'm Thinking | Wednesday 7.21.10 am
It is known that there is an infinite number of worlds, but that not every one is inhabited.
Therefore, there must be a finite number of inhabited worlds.
Any finite number divided by infinity is as near to nothing as makes no odds,
so if every planet in the Universe has a population of zero
then the entire population of the Universe must also be zero,
and any people you may actually meet...
hrrrthrrr: DIY : Rolling Rack →
After wanting to try my hand at making a rolling rack for my room, I finally did it! I use it when I’m doing laundry, planning my outfits for the week or working on sewing projects. It’d also work great as a coat rack in an entryway. You could even place a basket on it to put shoes in. Below is my…
My kind of shit! I love it!

The total history of almost anyone would shock almost everyone. ~Mignon McLaughlin
I’m thinking I am really looking forward to Mark Twain’s Autobiography being published in November.
Sometimes I think about my own life and it reminds me of how we remember a book we’ve read or a movie we saw years ago. Perhaps I will contemplate writing some of it down.
Samuel Clemens:...

Choice has always been a privilege of those who could afford to pay for it. ~Ellen Frankfort
Ellen Frankfort was talking about a choice of a different matter than I am right now, but I believe in most matters of choosing, this is an accurate statement. When we don’t have any way to pay for things (normal, everyday needs), we find it difficult to acknowledge things could be different...

What I'm Thinking | Friday 7.2.10 am
Wouldn’t it be great if people didn’t try to separate their roles in life from each other?
It happens… all the time
I am a woman… all the time.
I am a parent… all the time.
I am a writer… all the time.
I am an American Citizen (not an American consumer)… all the time.
I cannot turn these things on and off.
What I do when I am being one of these...

Thought Of The Day | 1July10
Each of us must come to care about everyone else’s children. We must recognize that the welfare of our children is intimately linked to the welfare of all other people’s children. After all, when one of our children needs life-saving surgery, someone else’s child will perform it. If one of our children is harmed by violence, someone else’s child will be responsible for the...
