That side effect I mentioned resulted in a cute bass line I want to do something with later. A 12-bar blues progression. In 5/4 time. Go figure. Jotted it down on the Clié. Then I made a "tryptophan bomb" in the hope of sorting out my sleep pattern a bit.

"I appreciate the efforts of organizations like Move On, and I suppose there's lots of people who appreciate the actions of the opposing organizations. But it occurs to me that the very existance of these organizations is telling us that something is very wrong with our entire system.

"The purpose of a representative goverment is to send people to act in our interests. They're supposed to have a good idea of what we would want them to do. We shouldn't need to be browbeating them about 2 or 3 issues every week. If we need to constantly pester our representatives, telling them what we want, maybe it's because they don't really represent us; that's why they don't automatically know -- or care to act on -- what we want."

Just dreamt that my car was towed. (It's still there, it was just a very vivid dream. *whew* In the dream it was also Tuesday afternoon instead of Monday morning, and it was raining pretty hard.) Don't recall having that dream when I lived in the suburbs.

(Didn't sleep long enough because back pain woke me. Gonna switch beds and see if I can get another hour or two.)
