It’s 2am and I have to get up in a few hours and go to work, but I can’t fall asleep.

I just lay awake in bed thinking about all the things I need to do for my car.  I love the freedom of driving, but not the cost and responsibility of car maintenance.  I need an oil change, new front brake pads, and a plastic splash guard replaced (injury by roaming cardboard box on the 10 freeway).

On a brighter note I’ve had some really great conversations about women’s rights this past weekend with intelligent and thoughtful friends.  Those kind of conversations make me feel more hopeful about the world in the way that news outlets make me feel worse about the world.

My apartment has been coming along nicely, I just need to take some pictures.  I also need to get around to having people over for a potluck or game night or something.
