Much to write about, including an amazing, inspiring, and frightening talk by Susan Linn about commercialism and children. Truly frightening. It made me thankful for so many things about our life with Q, and helped me see how truly simple in the best of ways it is. Most of the time.
Many thoughts about this all swirl around in my head, in addition to excitement about teaching what felt like another great section and more urgent movement on my dissertation.
Oh, and I took a survey (link to come) that told me that Obama is the candidate who most fits my desires. Interesting....must think more on that.
So, more to come on this swirl, but now it is time for rest, sweet rest.

Ahoy! First comment here; many thanks for your blog. Of course I had to look up Susan Linn, being quite rattled about commercialism, period, and commercialism aimed at kids in particular. I went from addled to rattled after seeing the documentary The Corporation, I think it was called. Off I darted to Google Susan Linn, and now I'm going to try and rethink my link set up on my blog to be able to include more general-purpose parenting links, so's I can get a link to her organization up (Campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood). Anyhow, thanks again!
Wahoo! Glad it made a difference and that you'll be spreadin' the word too. Anything to protect the small ones, eh?
