Honkers

Holy crap... I just realized I basically migrated this past season, completely skipped the oppressive heat of the midwest  summer for the completely lovely northwest weather, and came back to see the leaves change here ... And I loved this transition... a little too much. "Look! Honkers migrating up above!" "Geese?" "No. Savvy!" ;-) I'm a silly, silly girl.. ;-) #Crazy

Get Lucky

There's blind luck, where something positive happens out of the blue. Many times when we see people who happen to appear happy, they seem very "lucky" to us... Or are they? I'm starting an experiment to see how far a positive attitude can take me, and see if this action begets lucky happenstances... to remove the veil, and see if lucky occurances are largely controlled by the effort one might put forth in pursuing them. I'm solely going on observations I've made, and what appears to work. So, with no compass to follow, I'm shooting in the dark, and I'm just going to incorporate the most obvious traits of kindness and human acceptance I can think of. Here goes... Here is an outline of the following steps I've put together for my project. To help me remember these principles, most of them start with the letter L. To reiterate, this is for ease in using them for reference points, (and in case you want to play along). There is no projected end-po
Like a cactus lily, blooming in unexpected terrain, my inner self leached out like thorny vines, first embracing myself, then shielding me... my brain just said, "f*ck it, you bloom, flower! Motherf*ckin' bloom!"

What's in a Face?

What's in a face? It can be everything... and nothing. Your face can be an indicator of things. It tells the world your approximate age, sometimes your gender, and sometimes your lineage. And it can hold secrets. It can show the effects of disease, or perhaps the condition of your heart by the presence of tears (...or signs that tears had recently fallen). It can signal fertility in a woman...and likewise, virility in a man. It can be as revealing as an expression. Or, more cryptic, with pupils widened in distress or great emotion. Whatever realm a person exists in, can be immediately perceived in their face.. ...and... ... it can be faked. Like an actor learning every line, every motion, and every obstacle to master, all these signs can be hidden, while false signs are put in their place. The weilders of these skills are master assett replicators. Positive attributes: enhanced, negative attributes diminished. And what cannot be dealt with easily, can just be covered up..

Graviation - A Lesson in Balancing Your Endurance & Sanity for the Traveling Mom

"Warning! Warning!" No, it wasn't the seatbelt sign illuminating. Nor was it any type of beeping alarm coming from the cockpit. It was the unmistakable smell of a freshly soiled diaper, registering in the alarm centers of my brain, as it wafted into the nostrils, of my fellow passengers, and I, at approximately 30,000 feet, just as we had recently settled into our comfortable ride aboard a regional "fun-jet" en route to Salt Lake City. Matter was descending, alright, but it wasn't the plane. The day had started out innocently enough, with the typical, "up-at-3AM" to catch the 6:AM flight routine", complete with the burning eyeballs and the shaky body of a prematurely risen person... where your body already feels so wracked from packing from the day before, that the idea of coffee would almost be an insult upon on the fragile fortress of your flesh. Nonetheless, (and it wasn't the first time I'd assaulted the body with something i

When Life Gets Me Down, I Like To "Go Long"

As in, "long hand writing". (What did you think I meant, you dirty buggar?) ;) There's something magical that happens when the pen hits the paper, that you don't get from typing. (And I'm not the first person to say that.) In fact, it's quite well known. It can do something therapeutic, & cathartic for your mind. So, without further ado, I'm going to go write now. I'll let you know how it turns out. ;)

Calling It Quits - But Not at the Tits

Image
Sure. I know that title is a little bit crass. But as long as the world has gotten pretty bold about talking about boobies (ie: the popular "I Love Boobies" regalia that has permeated our society in support of breast cancer awareness), I figured it's ok to just go ahead and use the word 'tits'* (a word which has previously not been in my vocabulary). (*But... then again, new motherhood can do strange things to your mind.) As I write this, I am typing with one hand. The other hand I'm using to support my newborn, so I can nurse her...
