So I’m in California at this conference thingy and I’m all jumpy and wired. I was sitting in the hottub at the hotel and finished the book I was reading and had this desperate need to write. Then I realized that unless I wanted to write in longhand, I wasn’t going to be able to [...]

So I think maybe I get why Congress can’t pull its head out of its ass about the Iraq war and do something different that moves us towards stabilization in the region and ultimately allows our soldiers to come home. The reason I’m able to understand this is that I’m kind of like Congress [...]
Doesn’t matter how you slice it

You can argue for or against the death penalty all you want, but the issue still comes down to acceptable forms of murder. If we murder someone for murdering someone else, we as a society are sanctioning the murder of the murderer. Alternatively, if we kill someone for doing something other than murder, [...]

It is unbelievable the content of questions on ABC’s debate between Obama and Clinton. It was an hour into the debate before the moderator asked any questions of substance on issues that affect anyone. Until that point, the content was pure nonsense, sound-bite, reality television, tabloid fodder ridiculousness. Of course the entire [...]

I am the QUEEN of the Land of the Stupid People! I love being a QUEEN! It is so much fun. Do you want to know why I am the QUEEN of the Land of the Stupid People? Because I am, that’s why. Because I have had trouble after trouble after [...]

I’m like some kind of old leaf or something. I better watch our or I’ll end up a desert and not a writer. I’m supposed to show up and write even if it’s nonsense and lately the nonsense has seemed even more nonsensical than usual to the point where I’m embarrassed for myself. Yikes.
So a [...]

The Elbow, Lying on the Couch: When I was young, I fell and was broken. It was a hard fall. Out of a tree. The ligaments surrounding my cartilage were torn. I hurt for months. I was swollen. I couldn’t breathe properly.
Physical Therapist: How do you feel [...]
April 80 Degrees

Yesterday it was over 80 degrees. It was April 12. Pretty warm for mid-April in Oregon. My little cold-weather primroses and pansies look like they were lost in the desert, and they were wet to begin the day. They just can’t handle that amount of heat and direct sun. They [...]

Worst. President. Ever.
Posted in Politics, tagged Bush, Harper's, Historians, History, Politics, Scott Horton, USA on April 10, 2008 | 1 Comment »
I was just commenting to a friend yesterday how many blogs I read are reposts of stuff the authors saw elsewhere and how my blog is rarely reposts of others’ writing or videos. I went back through my blogs and found a couple of times where rather than writing, I’ve directed readers to something [...]
Lara’s Vacuous Brain
Posted in Personal, Pointless Rambling, Random Thoughts, Writing, life, tagged life, Personal, thinking, Writing on April 5, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
I realized after posting my last blog that I have had a dearth of deep thoughts lately. NONE. It’s all nonsense. I wonder if it’s because I’ve been feasting on nonsense for the last week. But no, my dearth of deep thoughts has been going on a lot longer than this decadent, Venusian week. Maybe [...]

Wow. So I check out of reality for a few days and when I check back in the hottest story out there is a transgendered man having a baby and Obama’s bowling ability. I think maybe it’s time to check back out again. I normally avoid the news but there are some headlines that are [...]
