What's been buzzing around in my brain

I haven't written since Monday because my head has been buzzing with all the news and things that have been going on.

Boo was at camp. Probably nobody cares about that except me, but it was definitely present in my head the whole week. When I got over worrying (after about the first day) I just missed her. A lot. But it was ever-present in my mind.

The Supreme Court issued lots of decisions and that took up lots of time on the news cycle. I have a few opinions about how the gay marriage decisions are affecting New Jersey.

The filibuster in Texas was awesome. Hopper had to drag me away from the feed at bedtime. Actually, way past bedtime.

I'm losing my job due to Sequestration so I've been looking for a new one. That's at least three posts worth of stuff that I may or may not be allowed to talk about.

My friend's baby was adopted by a Russian family. That's a hard one, and not really my story, but it's taking up some emotional space in my brain, for sure.

Hopper and I went to the zoo on Thursday. So much fun! Not only did that occupy my brain, but it was really hot and I came home exhausted. Also, we picked up Boo on Thursday night so there wasn't going to be any writing.

We got the game Smash Up! and I love it. In fact, I want to play it right now.

There's a hate post coming about Eddie Izzard because today is my brother's birthday and I ordered a present for him from EddieIzzard.com on May 19th and it still hasn't arrived. Grrr...

Hopper and I are almost at the end of David Tennant's reign as The Doctor. So that has required extra viewing as the episodes get more exciting and we can't resist watching one more before bed and then I run out of time and don't get to write.

So that's a partial list of things I need to write about. Hopefully, having them all in one place will get me motivated to start writing. If there's anything in particular you want to hear about, let me know in the comments. As I write these posts, I'll be filling in and adding links to this page, so come back and see what I've written!
