Random, scattered thoughts...

For starters, check out the Livesays' blog. Interesting synopsis of what things are like for them on the ground in Port-au-Prince. Pa bliye yo, souple.

Another interesting look at Haiti's history, politics, and what our response should be is here. Of course, it's not exhaustive - that would take volumes and volumes - but it's a good quick overview. (Warning: if you don't like hearing America and other Christians being taken to task for their actions, supposedly in the name of Christ, you probably shouldn't read it.)

I was up 'til almost 1:30 this morning reading 'The Serpent and the Rainbow' - oh my goodness, very interesting book. I'm about a third of the way through it and it is so very fascinating, if a bit disturbing in places.

Now I'm really trying to motivate and get my lazy butt to the gym. I need to get the wee one signed up too....he is chomping at the bit to do karate next month.
