Journal / ok, some random things:

a-i really don’t like the smell of dial soap. i was in a bookstore yesterday and i accidentally washed my hands with dial soap and then my hands smelled of dial for 12 hours. gross. i’m not trying to pick a fight with the good people at dial soap, inc. but dial soap smells weird and i don’t like it.

b-i went to a fundraiser for amend.org. what a great organization with a great precept. the #1 cause of death for kids in the developing world between the ages of 4 and 21? injury. not illness. not malaria or aids. injury, and usually car accidents.
amend.org is smart. give kids reflectors and they’re less likely to get hit by cars. spend 20 cents on a reflector as opposed to hundreds of dollars on medical care. it’s smart.

c-my email fast has become an email diet. i’m restricting myself. my original idea was to get rid of:
phone, email, internet, etc, and just sit on my front stoop for an hour a day. it seemed like such a civilized idea. if you wanted to talk to me you could just meet me on my stoop. it ultimately seemed to be a bit too impractical.

d-it’s time for sleep.

e-good night.
