I borrowed this cute little pregnancy summary from fellow nestie friend TobeMiller at Simply Beautiful.
How far along? 17 weeks
Total weight gain/loss: 8 lbs.
Maternity clothes? I have several maternity shirts, three pairs of shorts, and no pants. I have been able to find larger size pants or use bella bands on my existing pants.
Stretch marks? None so far.
Sleep: I usually get up at least once a night to pee. I also had to force myself to sleep on my side, no more sleeping on my back, it's bad for the baby.
Best moment this week: my belly seems to have really popped, it still goes up and down but when it's up, it's really up!
Movement: none so far, hoping for this to happen soon! I have an anterior placenta which may delay feeling any movement.
Food cravings: I haven't had any cravings except for thin mint girl scout cookies last night. Weird! Good thing their were a few still in the house. I have also been craving fruit.
Gender: Will find out in a few weeks!
Labor Signs: none and hopefully it will stay that way for awhile!!!!
Belly Button in or out? my belly button sticks out a little on top, it started to do this around 10 weeks. That was an unusual change!
What I miss: working out, I miss my aerobics classes, especially Heidi's classes. I have been sticking to walking every day though to keep in shape. I also miss my diet dr. pepper!!!!!
What I am looking forward to: Feeling the baby move.

From the barrio to the tree-lined streets of upscale neighborhoods all over Queens, thousands of people live in danger. They live in illegal apartments.
In the worst cases, unscrupulous building owners partition off houses into multiple apartments – sometimes as many as eight units in a two-story structure, even cramming living spaces in the attic and cellar.
Frequently, there is only a single exit for as many as four rooms – a narrow hallway that can be blocked by fire or smoke. This was the case in a November 7 fire in Woodside that claimed the lives of three Bangladeshi immigrants and left three, including the building owner, with serious injuries.
Firefighters, who search for possible victims in these labyrinthine deathtraps, encounter unnecessary risk. Sometimes they pay the price for a landlord's greed.
Beyond the obvious danger caused by illegal conversions of homes into apartment buildings, there are other problems. The clandestine increase in population density impacts the quality of life – from overcrowded schools, to street congestion and parking problems, to strains on water, sewer and sanitation.
Borough President Helen Marshall admits that the problem is "persistent and pervasive" in a booklet, Fighting Illegal Conversions: A Comprehensive Guide for Communities, available on line at www.queensbp.org.
"Part of the reason for the proliferation of illegal apartments is that many homeowners and their tenants do not know what constitutes an illegal dwelling or how to seek remedies," she said.
"Each year we receive thousands of complaints about illegal conversions and make thousands of inspections," said Tony Sclafani, spokesperson for the city's Department of Buildings (DOB).
Queens has the largest number of illegal conversion complaints in the city, according to Sclafani. "The style of home construction lends itself to illegal conversion," he said.
"When there is an imminent threat to public safety, the Department will issue a 'vacate order.' In 2006 we issued 738 vacate orders for illegal conversions citywide," Sclafani said. "In 2007, there were 823 vacate orders issued for conversions¬ – in 2008, the number was 1,086," he continued.
According to experts, the problem is that owners often don't file for a permit from the DOB, or have a licensed architect draw up plans. Illegal conversions are notorious for overloaded wiring, poor ventilation and lack of egress, they say.
In addition, by converting a private home into an income-producing property, the owner cheats the community by not paying a fair property tax, deducting their mortgage interest without declaring the income from rentals, or affording their tenants the protections of Rent Stabilization laws.
How is a prospective tenant to know whether they are about to lease an illegal apartment?
One rule of thumb is that if an apartment is in a cellar or attic, and there's only on way out – it's probably illegal.
The DOB provides a "Building Information System" on its web site. By selecting the borough and entering the building number and street name, anyone can view the property's classification and Certificate of Occupancy, which describes the legal use.
If anyone suspects that a residence has been illegally converted into apartments, they can call 3-1-1, and the Department of Buildings will dispatch a "Quality of Life" inspector to investigate
Officials say there aren't enough building inspectors in the city, and even if they go to inspect a property, if the owner doesn't let them in, they have to seek a warrant to inspect the building. In the case of the fatal Woodside fire, inspectors gave the building a clean bill of health in 1990 and in 2004.
"Building inspectors have to gather evidence for a warrant, just like the police," Sclafani said. "We look for things like multiple doorbells. But over the years, we're finding that some landlords are concealing the evidence, like doorbells or mailboxes," he added.

On January 13, 1899 the Pressed Steel Car Company was incorporated in New Jersey with an authorized capitalization of $25 million, for the stated purpose of "manufacturing passenger, freight and street railway cars and to make trucks, wheels, and other parts of cars".[1] The Pressed Steel Car Company of Pittsburgh came into existence 17 February 1899 and was an amalgamation of the Schoen Pressed Steel Company, Pittsburgh, and the British company, the Fox Solid Pressed Steel Company, set up in 1889 in Joliet, 30 miles southwest of Chicago.[2] Annual production of the consolidated companies' factories in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and Joliet, Illinois was forecast to be 24,000 steel freight cars, 300,000 bolsters and 180,000 truck frames.[3]
Pressed Steel Car Company ranked 41st among United States corporations in the value of World War II military production contracts.[4]
Pressed Steel Car Company's most notable product was the MP54 electric car built for the Pennsylvania Railroad, and used until the early 1980s from New York to Washington. The plant on Torrance Avenue in Chicago's Hegewisch neighborhood remains today and is occupied by various steel-oriented businesses. It is served by Norfolk Southern and Indiana Harbor Belt.

All-female cast goes to battle for 'Henry V'
By : Eric Coker
Rose-Emma Lunderman can remember her reaction when she learned the Theatre Department would stage an all-female version of William Shakespeare's Henry V.
"My jaw dropped," Lunderman said. "I didn't think we would ever do anything like this. I personally had no experience at all with Shakespeare, so to hear that there was going to be a show with all women was thrilling."
The senior is one of 23 female cast members who will take the Watters Theater stage at 8 p.m. March 5-6, 12-13 and at 2 p.m. March 14. Tickets are $14, general admission; $12, faculty/staff/senior; and $8, students.
Lunderman is portraying the title character, a complex King of England intent on invading France. Henry sets the pace of the 1599 play and dominates the story, even presenting speeches that take up entire scenes. The challenging role has been made famous by actors ranging from Richard Burton to Laurence Olivier to Kenneth Branagh.
For Lunderman, royalty has been a daily learning experience.
"My mind is all around Henry 24 hours a day, seven days a week," she said. "I'm constantly discovering new things about who he is. … I've done my research and book work. When it comes down to it, it's just opening myself up to anything. I'm finding out who Henry is and how I embody that."
The Theatre Department pitched the idea of an all-female production to Michael Toomey, the show's director and a visiting assistant professor. Toomey, a member of Shakespeare & Company in Lenox, Mass., since 1998, has worked with cross-gender casts in the past and had just completed an all-female adaptation of Shakespeare's long poem Venus and Adonis when the idea was presented.
Henry V is a good show to take advantage of the department's "really talented women," Toomey said, because of the chorus that introduces various acts.
"Right from the start they say, 'We are actors. We are playing these parts. Engage your imagination,'" he said. "Shakespeare did it with all men. Why can't we do it with all women?"
For Toomey and the cast, the greatest challenge was not adapting the cross-gender roles, but simply tackling the bard's text.
"When I start a play with students coming to Shakespeare for the first time, 90 percent of my work is reducing the fear around Shakespeare," Toomey said. "Our first interaction with Shakespeare most of the time is in the classroom with a book. It's taught as literature in most high schools. Shakespeare was never intended as literature. It was written by an actor for his fellow players."
Emily Esposito, a senior who plays Pistol, a commoner who fights for Henry, was able to get past her fears and has developed a love for Shakespeare's works.
"This is a huge show," she said. "We all care about the show so much and want to put 1,000 percent into it. The show as a whole is more of a challenge than the gender. This is my first experience with Shakespeare and it's quite an experience."
Getting a play such as Henry V "on its feet" is the key to progress, Toomey said.
"Once you get it on its feet, a different world opens up," he said. "It doesn't become such a foreign language anymore."
Instead, cast and crew members see that Shakespeare is examining the cost of war on the common man, as well as looking at Henry's journey and the responsibilities that go with the decisions of war.
Toomey also has brought other elements from his Shakespearean experience to the production. A class on clowning has helped cast members such as Esposito, while a course on stage violence has brought a sense of realism to a play that features many battle scenes.
"When I was first given the sword, I was terrified of it," Lunderman said. "Now when I put it on, I am ready. Even though we're not hitting each other, you feel the impact."
"There's going to be a lot of women with swords," Toomey said with a chuckle.
Esposito and Lunderman both hope audience members leave Henry V with a greater appreciation of Shakespeare.
"Shakespeare's characters aren't only from a certain time period," Lunderman said. "All of these stories are happening today. That's why it's still relevant 400 years later. Feel the story, be touched by the story and don't think of something so far away."
Toomey would like the show to spark debate and help the audience "go away a little more alive."
"It's people trying to get Shakespeare right," he said. "The more time people spend with Shakespeare, they realize that there's nothing sacred about Shakespeare. He just happened to be a really good writer — a kid from Stratford blessed with a great ear for language."

Taking a dig on wisdom of Mayan civilization, the website says, "People get all bent out of shape thinking that that's where the Mayan calendar ended. Their calendar was not computer generated. They were chipping away at stone and maybe that's just as far as they got in their calendar making before they were overrun by enemies, plague or some other natural disaster."
The website adds that we should stop worrying about 'end-world predictions' that have NEVER come true before too. Nothing untoward will happen to our modern world today.
It has been advised that "we should all strive to be better people and leave this old world a little better than what we found it" when we leave this earth. "Don't worry. Be happy. The doom-sayers have yet to be right!"

Quarterback Soup
Brian Bassett , TheJetsBlog.com
The Jets are in dire need of competition at the quarterback spot with the likelihood that Mark Sanchez must remain on the roster in 2013. With little flexibility in free agency, the Jets are going to have to look for cheap options for their possible starters, and this far all the Jets have been linked with is some cheap talent. Here's a look at who the Jets have already expressed interest in, and who else might be on the list at the outset of free agency.
Already Showing Interest
Brady Quinn — Other than a report that the Jets were interested in Quinn, it's hard to gauge how serious the team's interest is in Quinn. Quinn flourished in a WCO during his college days at Notre Dame, but was never able to translate his weight room work to the field in the NFL. Quinn has a poor feel for the pass rush and holds the ball too long. Quinn can struggle to diagnose coverages and can't throw deep passes with accuracy.
David Garrard — Garrard seems to be one of the camp bodies that the Jets are willing to bring in and his price would be right, but he would offer a real shot for the Jets as a starter. Garrard though has had health issues that have prevented him from playing the last two seasons, and he's 35 now. While he's big, physical and able to read progressions and coverages and can be accurate with the football, it seems risky to chance the Jets 2013 season on him being able to play 16 games when he's been unable to make a 53 man roster the last two seasons.
Potential Free Agents
Matt Moore (MIA) — Moore is a journeyman, but his success in 2011 is what makes me interested in him as an option for the Jets. Moore has good size, is athletic enough to scramble out of the pocket and has the arm to deliver longer passes, but he has had issues powering pushing the football into tight coverage windows. He knows how to read his progressions and has a good sense for identifying coverages, but his inconsistency is what's held him back in the NFL. Moore has enough talent to compete for a starting job on the Jets, but might come at a little more expensive price tag than guys like Quinn or Garrard.
Bruce Gradkowski (CIN) — Gradkowski sounds like his top option will be to return to Cinci as Andy Dalton's backup, but the opportunity to compete for a job might make New York an interesting destination. Gradkowski is a borderline starter/backup in the NFL and has had some limited success, but mostly in offenses where the talent made it hard for him to win.
Jason Campbell (CHI) — Campbell saw very limited playing time in 2012, but of course it came in a nationally televised game against the Niners. Campbell is a strong quarterback with good size and athleticism. When given time in the pocket, he can be accurate, but that breaks down when pressured and scrambling. Campbell is able to read coverages go through his progressions. Campbell though signed a deal with the Bears in 2012 that made him $3.5 million and so he might look for more than the Jets would be willing to give.
Path to the Draft
The Jets have met with a number of quarterbacks already. The team interviewed Matt Barkley at the Combine, Ryan Nassib was also interviewed by David Lee at some point and the team interviewed Mike Glennon at the Senior Bowl. We're sure they've talked to more, that's seem to be what's leaked out so far. If you haven't watched Mooch putting Barkley and Geno Smith on the board, then this is worth a look.

Grey's Anatomy: Was the laughing scene at George's funeral realistic?
I was trying to decide if the laughing scene at George's funeral in this week's Grey's Anatomy was realistic, and I guess it is. No one really knows how grief will affect someone, and laughter is as good as any method of handling grief.
I mean, the whole thing was sort of crazy -- that George would be hit by a bus while saving someone. And then that "someone" would be crying more than anyone else at the funeral. No doubt, she was filled with guilt and grief over the whole thing.
And for us viewers, it was a nice relief from the sadness of George's death. After five seasons, I'm sort of grieving for him, too. Do you think the scene was realistic?

The heart of the operation was a claustrophobic room tucked away in the bowels of just another city bar. Once through the trap door into the basement, visitors were greeted by a tiny circle of chairs arranged haphazardly atop an unfinished concrete floor. It was not a place anyone would come for civil discussion. The air was fetid, and pools of water collected unevenly on the floor as water dripped down from the cooling pipes which snaked across the ceiling.Learning Chinese? Our lesson today features an intermediate-level dialogue, along with a quick book club of our own. Want to know who we consider to be the Hemingway of China?

Iran intercepts 'unknown planes'
Posted By aaron On November 17, 2010 @ 3:19 pm In Iran,Old Infowars Posts Style | Comments Disabled
Nov 17, 2010
TEHRAN — Iran's armed forces have intercepted six "unknown planes" that intruded into the country's airspace during aerial defence manoeuvres, the spokesman for the exercise was quoted as saying on Wednesday.
"Yesterday (Tuesday) our forces reported intrusion of six unknown planes into our space, prompting us to fly our jet fighters and carry out interception operations," General Hamid Arjangi told Fars news agency.
"Also our artillery systems were alerted, targets were identified and pursued and necessary warnings were given," he added, without giving details.

Tehran, which is at odds with the West over its nuclear programme, launched the aerial war games on Tuesday.

A survey of mental health professionals from YourTango.com — the digital leader in love and relationships — dispels numerous long-held myths and reveals what makes a man husband material. Is it true that you can tell everything you need to know about how a man will treat you by looking at his relationship with his mother? "Not even close," say 65% of experts. Moreover, 55% of respondents disagree that a man who has never been married by age 40 likely has a deep-seated fear of commitment or some other undesirable issue to resolve.

The View From Norway: Bilingual Ed
November 09, 2006
John H. McWhorter
As the election returns are coming in, I am writing from the Arctic Circle.
I'm in Tromso, Norway, an extremely northern city whose university has me doing some lectures on linguistics.
I am keeping a close eye on the congressional elections. However, I am very, very far from home. In the existence I am living this week, as a linguist, I am struck by how different the Norwegian language here is from the Norwegian in books.
It reminds me that it was 10 years ago that Oakland's school board was putting together their resolution to "acknowledge" Black English in the schoolroom when teaching black children. The country erupted in jokes about teaching in "jive," but this was not what the Oakland school board meant. The resolution reflected a sentiment that had been kicking around for years, that the reason black schoolchildren so often have trouble learning to read is the difference between Standard English and the comfort dialect they learn at home.
So the idea was that the black student used to saying "I ain't got none and they be tellin' me it be my fault" is confused to encounter on the page "I don't have any and they tell me it is my fault." To wit, the claim was that black children would have an easier time learning to read if they encountered their home dialect on the page first, and then were ushered into Standard English as a "separate" variety.
On its face, this was not crazy. Too often, in practice, bilingual education has been a disaster in America. However, the problem has been one of implementation, not of philosophy. Worldwide, it has been shown endlessly that children learn to read more quickly when first taught in their native language and are gently transitioned into the dominant one.
The question is whether black students' reading scores were really due to their not being treated like Chicano students. That is where my sojourn to Norway comes in.
Here in Tromso, the local dialect is so different from the standard language that it leaves someone who thought he had mastered Norwegian frustrated. "What" is ka instead of hva. A word you use every two seconds like "I" is æ instead of jeg. Things like this go on and on, and they represent the exact same kind of difference as exists between Black English and the New York Review of Books not a different language, but different all the same.
Yet Tromso schoolchildren here are not taught in the local dialect, nor are they given readers in the local dialect and "ushered into" the standard. No one has any problem with them using the local dialect at home or in the schoolyard. But in class, standard Norwegian is the order of the day.
And they learn it.
In fact, there was an experiment here a long time ago, where students given local dialect materials learned to read a little faster than students who were taught with standard materials.A little faster, that is. But for any number of reasons not much came of that, and overall, there is no educational crisis in Tromso or anywhere else in Norway.
Maybe it would be superlatively ideal if all Norwegian students were taught in their home dialects of which there are dozens. But the expense that would entail is not seen to justify giving up a system which works fine anyway.
In the same way, a few studies have shown that black children sometimes learn to read a little faster when first given Black English materials. But the legions of black Americans of all walks of life who have done just fine without "Ebonics" tutelage suggests that this approach might be certainly ideal but hardly necessary.
Many think that the fact that Black English carries a stigma as "bad English" makes it a different case from places like Norway. The idea seems to be that black students of a certain demographic resist Standard English because of a feeling that it's "not their party," and that we are in the dark about methods of teaching them to read.
Yet from 1967 to 1977, the Department of Education sponsored a study called Project Follow-Through, which focused on lower-income (re: mostly black and brown) children. "Holistic" and "creative" reading programs stressing self-esteem and the like were tested against a rigorous, good old-fashioned program stressing basic skills.
The results resoundingly showed that the basic-skills methods work very well, while the more tutti-frutti ones do not.
Yet the Ebonics controversy proceeded as if this project had never been done. Sadly, the visceral appeal of treating black children as "denied their rights as bilinguals" trumped teaching them to read via a method shown conclusively to work. Education schools year after year produce teachers unaware that, as it were, penicillin was discovered decades ago.
Time zones mean that my deadline is too early to know how well the Democrats have done. But to the extent that they continue letting the teachers' unions pass in pretending Project Follow-Through never happened, they are unworthy of the votes they got from anyone truly concerned with the state of education for the disadvantaged.

Making carbonated fruit and ice cream is a fun and tasty science activity for kids and adults! Here is an activity that can make the kitchen a very cool and very fun science laboratory this holiday season!
You will need:
Ingredients to carbonated fruit: Cut up fruit, dry ice, bowl and/or pressure cooker
Ingredients to carbonated ice cream: cream (half cream half milk) or whipping cream (heavy cream), sugar, vanilla, and flavorings (or melted ice cream),
stainless steel mixing bowl, wooden spoon, gloves, safety glasses, carbon dioxide, strong heavy mixing bowl
Now try this (fruit):
1. In bowl place small pieces of dry ice.
2. Mix in cut up fruit pieces for 10 minutes.
3. As the dry ice sublimes (turns to a gas) the fruit becomes carbonated.
4. Optional: Using a pressure cooker place pieces of dry ice on the bottom of the cooker. On mess rack place fruit pieces on top of the dry ice. Cover the pressure cooker with release valve open to allow pressure from gas to escape. After 30 minutes to an hour open and enjoy the fizzy fruit.
Now try this (ice cream):
1. In the stainless steel mixing bowl combine ½ cup cream, ¼ cup vanilla, ¼ cup sugar and flavorings and mix well.
2. Wearing gloves and safety glasses, slowly add crushed dry ice the cream mixture (making sure the dry ice pieces are extremely small).
3. Continue to mix while adding dry ice as needed until the cream freezes to the consistency wanted and all of the dry ice has undergone sublimation (you will see no more "fog" emitting from the mixture).
4. Have an adult inspect to make sure no more dry ice remains and then you can grab your spoon, eat and enjoy.
5. Your ice cream is carbonated!
Dry ice is solid carbon dioxide and at room temperature undergoes a phase change called sublimation. Sublimation is the process of changing from a solid to a gas without going through the liquid phase. To make carbonated drinks and foods gaseous carbon dioxide has to dissolve in water. Thus, as the dry ice sublimes, the carbon dioxide gas dissolves in the water in the fruit, making a very fizzy tasty treat.
To make ice cream the cream mixture needs to change from a liquid to a solid. This process is called freezing (a phase change) and requires heat to be removed from the mixture. Because ice cream is primarily water it needs to reach temperatures of 0OC or lower. Dry ice is solid carbon dioxide that is at a temperature of -78.5OC (-109.3OF), that is far below the freezing point of ice cream. That temperature is so extremely cold that it will freeze solutions with water in a matter of minutes. Also in using the dry ice carbon dioxide gas is dissolving in the water and thus carbonating your ice cream!

After a couple of recent discussions, one with a couple of my lawyers, who are friends with Ulys Stapleton I might add, informed me that he does not really care if I'm in jail or not. Other than the fact he is worried I am going to get him recalled.
Sorry to break the news to your readers, but that is a total paranoid delusion because I don't even know what recalled means.
So I might add the District Attorney needs to calm way down or move on and moving on shouldn't be too hard for him, considering his huge past as being a "drifter".

I Am Going to Die.
(…and so are you.)
About a year ago I had what now appears to have been a migraine aura—a strange visual disturbance that made it seem as though someone had smeared living, squirming Vaseline all around the periphery of my visual field, while shimmering zig-zag lines occasionally floated into view. I also felt a little dizzy and shaky. And while none of these symptoms may seem particularly alarming, I had never had a migraine before (that I knew of) and didn't know what an aura looked like—neither did I know that they are more common in men than in women, or that they tend to occur "later in life."
Now, in spite of carrying some extra weight, I am in pretty good health; my blood pressure was 116/63 last time I had it checked, and my resting pulse 64. But when a doctor who happened to be nearby began asking me questions about funny smells or tastes, numbness and tingling—questions that made it clear that he suspected a stroke—I began to panic a little, becoming so pale and alarming that my friends called my wife to leave work and take me home.
Of course, I felt ridiculous on the surface—I was, after all, just fine—but deeper down I knew I had something very important to learn from the incident:
I am not reconciled to the inevitability of old age, sickness and death.
I heard Bhagavan Das tell a story about a sea turtle in the depths of the ocean who comes up and, as if by chance, puts its head through a small wooden ring floating on the surface. The probability of this happening, he said, is the same as the probability of a human birth. So a human birth is an immeasurably precious thing, and there are both a staggering opportunity and an immense responsibility bound up with this earthly life. Consider Jesus' famous Parable of the Talents:
(The Kingdom of Heaven) will be like a man going on a journey, who called his servants and entrusted his property to them. To one he gave five talents of money, to another two talents, and to another one talent, each according to his ability. Then he went on his journey…
After a long time the master of those servants returned and settled accounts with them. The man who had received the five talents (said)…'Master,' you entrusted me with five talents. See, I have gained five more.' His master replied, 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master's happiness!'
The man with the two talents also came. 'Master,' he said, 'you entrusted me with two talents; see, I have gained two more.' His master replied, 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master's happiness!'
Then the man who had received the one talent came. 'Master,' he said, '… I was afraid and went out and hid your talent in the ground. See, here is what belongs to you.'
His master replied, 'You wicked, lazy servant!…Take the talent from him and give it to the one who has the ten talents. For everyone who has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken from him.'[i]
The servants' situation is the one in which we all find ourselves. When we come to give an account of our lives, what return will we be able to make on the talents with which we have been invested?
I took my children to a maple sugaring festival along with a friend of theirs from school. Run by the city, the festival is an impoverished affair without any music, so as I often do I brought along my concertina. As I sat on a bench and played some traditional American tunes, a few curious children and their parents stopped to listen. Off to one side, I heard a mom drawing her little girl's attention to what I was doing. "Look at that, honey—do you know what that is?" she asked.
"An old man?" the little girl replied.
Now, any normal forty-five-year-old person might think this funny, in a cute, Art Linkletter sort of way. But it bothered me. A lot. And it still does. When I heard the words "old man," the one that came to mind was the one Walt Whitman wrote of, "who has lived without purpose, and feels it with bitterness worse than gall."
I have two fantastic children and a wonderful wife who puts up with my mishegoss; I am still making music and doing my best to alleviate the suffering of my fellow creatures. But in spite of everything I have always thought I believed, I still struggle to find peace with the fact that I am probably more than halfway through my life without anything to show that I am, in any worldly sense, a "success." I haven't set the world on fire! I haven't "made a difference!" If I were George Bailey, I'd have gone to jail!
Insufferable, I know. And yes, I am mentally ill. But I don't believe I am alone in this. Isn't our whole culture frantic to keep us distracted? There are now video screens at the gas pump. We can watch movies on our phones. News has degenerated into entertainment, while entertainment has been elevated to news. We as a society are, as sociologist Neil Postman put it, "amusing ourselves to death." What are we as a people trying so desperately not to face?
Yes, we don't want to think about death. And there are a lot of frightening things afoot these days that are hard to face, from climate change to resistant disease germs. Our children will inherit an unstable world from us after we die, which will not be very long from now.
But I think there is more to it than that. I believe that not only do we not want to think about death—we don't want to think about life, either. We have a high calling, we humans. When my children try to sneak away from the table without drinking their milk, I remind them that a farmer and a cow worked hard to make that milk, and it won't do to waste it. Well, the universe has labored to make us, and yet we let ourselves go to waste. Though we don't like to think about it, "we know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time."[ii] And in order not to face the charge we have to keep, we allow the world to direct our attention here, there, everywhere but the present moment—which is, as we know, precisely where the treasure is. Now is the day of salvation.
In the midst of life, we are in death, the Book of Common Prayer tells us. Our lives are precious, and they are finite. Work while you have the light.
So I'm going try to stay aware of the world and its misdirection, doing my best to redirect my attention to the present moment and the revelations it contains. Life, as poet R. S. Thomas put it,
…is not hurrying
on to a receding future, nor hankering after
an imagined past. It is the turning
aside like Moses to the miracle
of the lit bush, to a brightness
that seemed as transitory as your youth
once, but is the eternity that awaits you.

I had my first "migraine aura" a few months ago. very strange experience. I never thought of the stroke possibility. I am sure I would have panicked a bit more had that thought crossed my mind.
And,yes, I am not reconciled with aging and death either.
Thank you for sharing.
I must confess, Casey, that I was thinking about the stroke possibility, but only in a vague, backgroundy way; once the "funny smells" questions started, though–that was when I got really antsy!
I almost died 10 years ago from severe illness. With my body fighting to hold on, death seemed like a very peaceful, inviting place. I did not have any particular beliefs about what would happen at death, just an intuitive feeling that I would be at peace. So I was not scared of it at that moment. The experience changed my relationship with death and with life. I savor the small wonders much more now than I did before facing death (like not having migraines anymore!).
Wow; what an experience! I have sometimes thought that it would be almost peaceful to learn that one's death was really imminent, and not to have to worry about it any more. Thanks for coming forward with that!
Beautiful Scott, thanks.
Swami Vishnu Devananda used to ask his students: "what is today?"
They would, of course, usually say "Monday", or "the 5th january", or whatever, to which he would reply:
"Another day closer to death"
It's good to keep it in mind. A good way to live more fully. Love
Thanks, Ben.
Was the Swami a fan of Pink Floyd?
What human beings are good at, at being human, at coping with the environment in a variety of masterful ways, seems to improve with experience and wisdom, with the aquisition of new knowledge and skills. Aging and death have interrupted this process for all human beings in the past but not to any useful purpose.
When distress patterns are eliminated from humanity as a whole, when they are gotten rid of and are prevented from occuring in our children, then there is no evidence that we would find continued existence anything but an increasing pleasure.
[…] an abortive run at the ordained ministry in the Episcopal Church, I spoke with a priest about my issues around disease and bodily violation. "This business," she warned me, "is fraught with death." Now that I am preparing for […]
My understanding, Karen, is that migraine auras specifically *without headache* are a majority–though not exclusively, of course–men-in-middle-age phenomenon. I guess I didn't make that clear enough in my article.
