On my mind: ADHD of the brain today

~My mother's breast cancer.
~the color purple and the way it sneaks into the beam of light that stretches across my room.
~Wisconsin and their politicians.
~The dishes I haven't washed.
~My bike in the closet that I am ready to ride.
~Still, my cat I gave up.
~Am I giving my mother enough of what she needs right now?
~Spontaineity vs. impulsivity
~Second Solitude
~Cellular memory
~butterflies
~Egypt
~Sleep
~breakfast with my fave peeps this morning
~why new staff keep trying to reinvent the wheel. Its a wheel, it goes around. Unless you can make it move smoother, please stop adding to the squeaks.
~3rd wave feminism is still missing a key voice in sexuality.
~someday women will move past emmulating mysogyny to empower their sexuality (This includes the mistress syndrome)
~saw a dog catcher yesterday with a butterfly net. it was ACME surreal.
~practicing loving kindness as a radical act, because it apparently is one.
~over nights suck my soul, but i love the work.
~lists
~all that weird lightening from last night.
~trainrides
~planerides
~the overwhelming obligations this week that cannot meet my sleep patterns for the over nights.
~laughter that purrs from the throat and tickles the air.
~Taxi drivers' opinions
~oatmeal (I love that stuff)
~a warm sweater
~a loose blouse
~building faith in a world that roots for the underdog but expects the bad people to rise to power.
~Art that is produced with empathy, not self genuflection
~courage despite fear
~a new show to watch
~a new hair cut
~those tv avangelists who keep preaching revelations and islamic extremists (can't we do it redneck style and have them go to the backyard? Let the ignorant sh!ts duke it out until they are tired while the rest of us focus on building a new world for all?)
~brain candy
~I know very few people who are not addicted to alcohol, pot, or food
~I believe we can get past anxiety without xanax, ativan, and pot.
~all emotions have a root in reason, its about learning to not feed them negative reactions.
~everyone calls certain feelings love, but few know how to actually produce love in action, thereby nulling their feeling as something less like lust, attraction, obsession.
~Vegans need to remember their existence is a priveledge, still please keep making it possible for the rest of us, but stop with the judgements - you come off like right wing Christians. Not cool.
~Christians who insist I am a sin for being gay/queer. Hello! We have more important things to fight to save like our environment, our children, our crumbling economy.
~The beautiful sound of rain falling.
~The way the sun can warm the face on a cold winter day.
~what am I going to eat for breakfast?
~My mother's breast cancer
