i want to have more children but the prospect of another pregnancy and newborn to nurse would, i think, feel less daunting if i had friends who weren't afraid to embrace me warmly, stroke my back, touch my hands and face

three-year-old made up a song he said was called "love is personal" and the words were: love is here, love is here, love is near, love is everywhere, love is nowhere, love is anywhere, love is in the window of the maze, a laze, a haze (here it trailed off into sing-song babble)

rewatched lynch's elephant man and it's a good film, but imagine a film that is less about ill treatment and exploitation and more about merrick as a man saving wages, developing craftsmanship with his particular challenges, with bright colorful scenes of picking wildflowers

mark greif in “against exercise” joins baudrillard in his feeling about the runner’s activity being anti-social, opposed to life
