    Amusing moment

    The husband is playing Saint’s Row and is driving down the sidewalk mowing down pedestrians like bowling pins. It’s… slightly disturbing. :D Originally published at Jen’s Corner. You can comment here or there.

    I feel glad when you're glad…

    Originally published at Jen’s Corner. You can comment here or there. I had a dream last night. It was all very complicated and bizarre and fun, but the part I actually remember enough to describe is the very end. For some reason, Randy Travis showed up to tell me something, and I got his autograph. Then I woke up with a Barry Manilow song in my head. My brain is confusing.

    Originally published at Jen’s Corner. You can comment here or there. So, there’s only 8 more days to submit comments on the regulation that will allow providers to withhold critical health care information. After that it goes into effect. naamah_darling is far more articulate than I – she goes into great detail in several posts here. This is the rule that will go into effect if we do not act to stop it. Eight days. Go. Comment. Give money to Planned Parenthood. And if you want some amusement value for your buck, donate it in Sarah Palin’s name. I did.…

    This is why.

    Originally published at Jen’s Corner. You can comment here or there. It is important to remember that Roe v. Wade did not mean that abortions could be performed. They have always been done, dating from ancient Greek days. What Roe said was that ending a pregnancy could be carried out by medical personnel, in a medically accepted setting, thus conferring on women, finally, the full rights of first-class citizens — and freeing their doctors to treat them as such.

    Book Review: Cloud Atlas

    Wow. I just finished the most amazing book – Cloud Atlas, by David Mitchell. I found this book when I asked a guy at BookPeople for a dystopia, and I can’t recommend it enough. It’s a nested set of matryoshka dolls in front of a mirror; six separate stories woven together from the 1850s to a post-apocalyptic future and back again. Each could stand on its own, yet when taken together are glorious. Here’s some thoughts I had while reading it: About 10 pages in: Hmm. This doesn’t seem much like a dystopia. Oh well, it’s ok so far. About…

    Unexpected

    Originally published at Jen’s Corner. You can comment here or there. I got to school on Monday and found out that my History teacher died over spring break. She’d had some upper respiratory crud going on the week prior, and apparently it turned into pneumonia and it killed her. The disturbing part, besides someone I know however superficially dying without warning, is that she was just 42. For those of you keeping score, I’m 41. I also, if I get sick, tend to get a horrendous cough that hangs on for weeks. So yeah, it’s a little disconcerting.
