Respite

My RSS reader tells me it's been quite an overwhelming day. Insightful, scary, infuriating, emotional, and touching posts crashed over me in waves. Some have fewer comments than I would expect to see. It's eerie.

I have the bug, too, if it's a bug out there. It's all a bit much and I can't find something to throw myself into, so I don't do it at all. I was going to try a short post to relieve it, then my internet went out, and it was gone. The ice cream truck skipped my street as I waited, money in hand. That's was the last straw, ice cream truck person!

Sly and the Family Stone. War. Santana. Paul Simon. Gladys Knight. Seal. Jeffrey Gaines. The Call. Blondie. Tracy Chapman. Peter Gabriel. Kate Bush. Seal. Supertramp. We've all been hanging out the past few hours. It's been good.
