Crouching Girl, Hidden Woman
Licking her wounds she glances from side to side, soul half open. Wandering out, she finds, the farther she ventures, the more she finds and the fuller she feels.

Our Nation
"Next our statesmen will invent cheap lies, putting the blame upon the nation we attacked, and every man will be glad of those conscience-soothing falsities, and will diligently study them, and refuse to examine any refutations of them; and thus he will by and by convince himself that the war is just, and will thank God for the better sleep he enjoys after this process of grotesque self-deception"

Cheerio
Saw this on Penelope Dullaghan's blog, so I'm passing it on.... spreading the cheer.
Ten things worth cheering about right now:
- Dates with Dave (this Friday I hope!)
- Joomla! 1.5 rockin'
- Joining the Y with Marly
- Half-Life (the book, not the game*)
- Springtime arriving
- Weekend arriving
- New nephew's cuteness
- Fabulously fun art openings (one from last Friday comes to mind)
- Planning trips
- Driving a brand new car
*It's bad that I even know that Half-Life IS a game, isn't it?
