on the sidewalks of San Francisco en-route to an, admittedly, ridiculously posh yoga class. I pass two black children, just slowly enough to overhear one say to the other: "Man, I *hate* those dreams where people are shooting you!!" and to hear his friend reply: ..."Me too." ... ... I... chewed on all of the glaringly obvious racial-socio-economic-gender-urban planning, dynamics I could possibly think of; of course. ... Later, i consider... read more
I'm getting about 1-3 (non-sequential) hours of sleep per night

'Is my family fucked up? Or am I fucked up?' ... Of course, the answer is: Both... but they started it.
Last night I saw a friend of mine, Nabil, from Beirut. It's been so long since I've seen him that I was only just now telling him of my plans to move to Chicago.

He asked me why I was doing this, I gave my reasons and said that a large part of the reason was so that I'd be closer (closer! not close!) to family. I then explained that I've been gone, pretty much consistently, for the last 20 years. He replied...'oh, so they will be happy you are returning then :)' I paused...and ... read more
I'm still going to move to Chicago, there are simply more logical reasons for me to do so, than for me to stay here. I'm *really* shaken up after that crazy condemnatory religious whack-nut series of interactions with my family (see the looooong post 'God hates F@&5!)

about me
RESEARCH AREAS:
Research area 1: Neurochemical mediation of psycho-emotional-cognitive-conscious states + pharmacotherapy + dual-diagnosis The interface of endogenous neurochemical patterns with external factors, and psychotropic substances. Primary research thus far has been on the neurochemical mediation of psychotic states: specifically schizophrenic psychotic episodes, amphetamine-induced psychosis, and the effects of psychostimulant abuse (specifically agents with predominately dopaminergic effects) on schizophrenic individuals. In simple term I’ve learned that individuals with Schizophrenia shouldn’t smoke crack. It’s a bad idea. Research area 2: Homelessness in America. Research area 3: Utilization of quantitative and qualitative data for program strategy, development, implementation, administration, outcomes measurement, and restructure. Research area 4: Political analysis of social welfare programs – specifically the conversion of AFDC into TANF and the various state versions of the program. Research area 5: Social neuroscience + sociobiology + social capital Beyond that…I just read a lot. ***************************************************************************************************************************** IT'S BEEN SAID...
