...he kept pushing though...

From an article about whether Hillary should withdraw from the race for the Democratic nomination, which looks increasingly against her.

"I hear it in the atmosphere," Clinton said of the increasingly loud chatter about whether she should drop out and let Democrats focus on the general election campaign.

Yes, exactly. Even the ether wants her to drop out. So why is she still hanging on?

...dense fog...

Is anyone else but me seriously disturbed by the new Danino commercial that has a little girl smilingly announcing how she is looking forward to eating her "strawberry-flavoured DHA", as found in Danino Yogurt?

Children (or anyone else, for that matter) should not be enthusiastically clamouring for food additives, especially not over the foods themselves. It's profoundly creepy, no?

...baby stay fair...

In the time I have been sitting here trying to write, Blogger has autosaved the draft six times. There is an intuitive awareness in every nerve ending on my body that knows exactly how I feel about this situation and exactly what I would want to do about it, but I am having so much trouble trying to articulate it.

There are so many directions I could go.
What I know is what my senses tell me.
I know when you're there.
I'm on when you're there.
I wish we knew each other in a vaccuum, or a snowglobe.
Do I have your attention?

How was I supposed to know she would see something in a *dream*, for christ's sake?
