| I politely decline, look for my car keys so I can get my kid back from the doctor, make a mental note to discuss the finer points of editing (not to mention children wandering off for medical care without so much as a by-your-leave to their parents) (except I see I did just mention it now) and absen... |

Atlas
Extreme exertion
isolates a person
from help,
discovered Atlas.
Once a certain
shoulder-to-burden
ratio collapses,
there is so little
others can do:
they can't
lend a hand
with Brazil
and not stand
on Peru.

I am what they call silly.
Yin Omelet

| I haven't looked at The Golden Bough in many years, but it was fascinating. Frazer was a wild and crazy guy by the standards of his day. Maybe any day, now that I think about it. At the moment I'm reading the following, in bits and pieces (which is the only way I read anything at all these days): Pr... |

| Hey, postpaleo, what does a mother's ear sound like? Can you hear the ocean in it if you listen closely? May the tides of our blood sing safe within the shores of our skin. There will be no drawing with anything but pencils and pens and crayons and chalk and computers here. Cleaning up is just about... |

| I am the mother of a wildly creative soon-to-be-teenaged aspie and a challenging but fascinating autistic nine-year-old. I like to think, read, write, listen, and talk more than anything else in the world. I keep saying that I want to sleep more than anything else, but when I get a chance, what do I... |
