ugh!!

i think the blog gods are conspiring against me. they do- the gods conspire against me.

but seriously, i wrote a really long post on thursday night about a speaker i had heard and the israeli-palestiian conflict, and how theories about that fit into an even larger paradigm/world-view. and then i kept getting a "document contains no data" error- and it kept doing that even after i copied all the text so i could later paste it.

well, of course, since thursday night, other things have entered the clipboard, displacing my very well-thought out blog post and now it's gone!! :(
boo. and i'm getting a cold. and thus missed the farm tour i was supposed to be at all day today for one of my classes.
