i love this book...

" zygote isnt a bad word, but its far from perfect. on the one hand, i love the words origin - the greek word for 'joining together.' that feels right o me becuase thats about what has occured. an egg and a sperm have joined together, and they're on this cool little pilgrimage to the uterus.

on the other hand, i dont like the way the word sounds when you say it outloud: zygote! it always sounds like it needs an exlamation point. it always sounds like a curse from some mad scientist. zygote! the breaker is cracked! zygote! theres radium all over the lab!" ~ from the notebooks of sibyl danforth, midwife

cool little pilgrimage... hah... it is pretty cool...

i cleaned out my car today extremely well and now im going to go have a beer with patrick...
