i was a crazy kid last night and stayed up to watch conan. i love conan but i seldom watch anymore b/c i'm too old to stay up that late. but as you probably know the entire hour was with U2- and i couldn't help myself. i am paying for it today b/c my eyelids are involuntarily closing b/c they are heavy with sleep- or lack there of...

needless to say, just when you think you couldn't love your first love anymore than you already do- it goes deeper and wider. watching u2 last night reaffirmed to me just how astute of a eleven year old i was in 1984.

unfortunatley, bono didn't win the noble peace prize. nor did jeffery sachs. but you can read about the guy that did here... a worthy man for sure. i am disappointed nonetheless.

tonight, i will be with the lovely three and a half year old named laurel. we will do our nails and sing some songs and have lots of fun. i am looking forward to it.

charles has his intensive this weekend and will be m.i.a.. other plans include, but are not limited to, going to the harvest festival at the north market, cleaning, filing, organizing, reading and walking through piles of leaves to hear that great sound they make. i will be recooping from one of the biggest downer weeks i've had in a while.

today's chewable vitamin:

"one of the greatest injustices we do to our young people is to ask them to be conservative. Christianity is not conservative, but revolutionary. to be conservative today is to miss the whole point, for conservatisim means to stand in the flow of the status quo, and the status quo no longer belongs to us... if we want to be fair, we must teach the young to be revolutionaries, revolutionaries aginst the status quo." ~ francis schaeffer
