people are concerned about the election. all i can think of is my mother. two and a half weeks ago she was campaigning vehemently for nader. she can only move her left foot and her left arm. she doesn't understand anything i say. i don't even know what she sees when she looks at me.

i know what i see when i look at her. a woman with a beautiful mind that right now is swollen so that she can't know herself or the world around her.

this is what makes this day sad for me. this is what's unfair in my life.

Thanks for reminding me that really, as fucked up as the election is, it isn't anything real.

I hope your mom heals, Anna. I don't know what else to say.
