My Left Foot
This picture was taken 2 years ago after I had surgery to fix my broken ankle. I'm all better now, thanks :)
Hello I'm Elaine Schmarroll and everything is always more or less fine.

Dig if you will this picture...
Here's my whole thing.
This is my problem with humanity at large. As a species...
1. We are too demanding.
2. We are too bold.
3. We are never, ever, in the least bit satisfied.
We become our mothers, we become our fathers, we scream at each other and we don't know why. Animals sense it, they feel the heat, and frankly it upsets the doves.
Don't cry. Just accept that this is true and if that's not enough, I don't know, write a song about it?

Hello!
I haven't blogged here in a while. Why, hello again, this blog.
You know what I think happened: I started tweeting and that deflated my blogging momentum. I like twitter, but I miss the long, rambling, meandering garbage that can be born out of this nonsense. I probably have a badly curated web presence. Ah well. The prodigal daughter returns, dirty laundry in hand.
The short update is this: I'm in New York and everything is more or less fine. If you would like to read on, you are most welcome to, but I'm going to talk about the Higgs Boson because I am a nerdy uncool human person. Consider yourself warned.
I would like to talk about the Higgs Boson not because I know anything about it or because I want to pretend to know anything about it, but science gives me a boner and blogs are best when they're self-indulgent so here I fucking go.
The Higgs (yeah I'm on a first-name basis with this Boson, no big) was front page news. Any time something science-y makes the front page, you know that's big time stuff, like when they found a new number between 23 and 24.
From my understanding, the Higgs Boson is the final puzzle piece on the periodic table of physics, and while I know next to nothing about what that means, when I listen to the experts talk about it, it gives me that same sensation of warmth and delight that I felt as a kid listening to the grown-ups talk. I didn't understand the details, but I liked their voices and their tones. It made me feel safe. The Higgs Boson makes me feel safe, like the human race has successfully crawled two more inches closer to the fountain of Infinite Clarity and Understanding.
We're still a long way off. And it may very well be a mirage. Nonetheless, it's still neat. My whole point is that I just blogged something.
