hi. I'm still reading, though I lost track of you for a few months when you moved the blog. I still don't remember how I found you again, either. something interesting? getting ready to go to my Psychology of Racism class and talk about racial profiling: how it's good, how it's bad, and what alternatives we have.

kokobean - i had to add you to my daily reads because I think I have had you on my super long blogroll for awhile and I never get to read your words, mama...and I love the way you write, so there you are.

It's bizarre that someone who immunizes her children would feel unsafe, does she think the immunizations didn't take or something? What's up with that?

Ms. Lem - Love the sound of that class. Let me know how it goes!

hey dru. i wonder if this ever happens to you: i ate an apple last night and, probably from the pesticides i had failed to wash off completely, i had a massive allergic reaction -- terrible itching all over my body, cold/hot, and of course my lungs filling up with fluid and coughing violently. so i did what i usually do under such circumstances which is pop two 200mg [or is it 250?) benadryls, and then it was like heroin city, and now i have this nasty hangover. i've had people preach to me about claritin but it's just not fast-acting enough. ditto with homeopathic/naturopathic remedies. for awhile i was doing this stuff called spongia tosta and the immediate effect was not measurable, although it cumulatively improved an allergy season for me.

i wonder what it was, since i think it was an imported apple -- alar? ddt? something worse? i know that i have severe allergies to pesticides. i mean who wouldn't, they're poison. all i know is in a bioterrorist attack i'm not going to be one of those people who miraculously survive.

i'm going out and buying that stuff you spray on your fruit that makes the pesticides come off -- i will be damned if i'll let them take apples away from me! the bastards!

hope you feel better than i do today...

Hey Dru,

I don't comment every day, but I did comment a couple of times, and you sent me a sweet email that I have saved, cuz it gave me your name and everything, so I feel special. :)

I blog daily, but in livejournal, because I'm lazy and poor and that's easy and free. :P

My big thing right now is that my partner and I want to celebrate our commitment to each other, and we are fighting against the conservative traditionalist elements of our respective families, that want us to do things certain ways because "that's how it's done" and etc. And we are NOT traditional or conservative! Nor do I wish to have a celebration for other people over ourselves.

And to r@d@r - that sounds like a HORRIBLE reaction to pesticides. I get migraines. Awful, nauseaus, painful, horrible migraines from pesticides. And I have various other reactions to chemicals outside that (like non natural laundry soaps, face masks, and etc). It didn't powerfully manifest before I went organic - but I won't change back, THAT'S for sure, because it was manifesting in subtler, yet more chronic ways.
