Do you ever notice how things have a tendency to come up out of nowhere and then suddenly repeat themselves in different parts of your life? It doesn't have to be a deep something. In the past two weeks, I've had at least 6 unconnected people mention in conversation how much they love Count Chocula. I've also had a book and a subject come up repeatedly in the past little bit. The book is Buddha's Brain: The Practical Neuroscience of Happiness, Love, and Wisdom. When it came up for the 4th time in as many days this morning I went ahead and Kindle'd it - it may not be coming up for a reason but at the very least, I trust the taste of those people who are reading it and seemingly getting something out of it. That's easy.
The subject? Not as easy. For some reason the theme of full disclosure and internet privacy and personal openness keep coming up, and they're tangling themselves in such a way that they can't be isolated separately, at least not in my little brain. I've tried to sit here and write out my thoughts but all I really get is a convoluted tangle so apparently, it isn't really ready to be written about... we'll just call this a bookmark and maybe I'll get back to it later. Or not. I seem to be expert at saying "I should write about that!" and then promptly not doing it. Or even belatedly not doing it... anyhow. We'll see. It gets thinks, though. Lots of thinks.

I'm officially counting down now, by the way. I'm on an airplane in 48 hours. Squee!
