Win my upcoming epic low fantasy book The Cathedral of Portals in a GoodReads giveaway (if you're American and have an account!). The early reviews say "The Cathedral of Portals left me feeling dizzy, deeply touched and trying to put feelings into words"! www.goodreads.com/giveaway/ent...

Today is my brother David’s birthday. He would have been 40 today. It’s been 8 years without him. My brother was so kind. He always helped the people around him, even if it meant not having something he needed or wanted. In his honor, please consider doing something kind for someone else.

My Rage Against the Machine/Les Mis mashup is complete. This is my interpretation of the quilt guild’s summer challenge “quilt with your interpretation and/or feelings towards our current ‘democracy’” all hand stitched.
Quilt hanging on a card catalog. Neutral background with navy cursive appliqué “Do you hear thr people sing?” The background is embroidered in red starting light and getting bolder the lyrics to “killing in the name” the quilting effect is a focused sunburst from the center.

Heads up if you’re a cat’s person and feed them Purina One Plus Urinary Tract Health food. I managed to get 3 different bags across 2 stores that had mold in them. It has to be a bad lot and hasn’t been recalled yet.

I spent the first half of my day furious and the second half of my day so far crying at random. Hormones are dumb as hell.

My wedding ring had developed a loose prong that was snagging threads on fabric and even started pulling hairs, so it had to go to the jeweler. I got it back today and even though I don’t consider myself a big jewelry person, certain pieces make me feel whole. I guess I do like rings after all.

there are nights when loneliness isn’t loneliness at all it is the memory of being held in exactly the way your body prefers it is the ghost of someone’s warmth still living beneath your skin and suddenly the bed is too large, the night is too quiet, and sleep feels like an unnecessary cruelty

3 weeks until my next big adventure and I have so much packing to do. I will sorely miss my loves but a solo birthday adventure feels like a good reminder that I am my own perfect company as well.

I have a couple of friends that always know someone when we go out, no matter the city or venue. It’s amazing to me to know someone so connected to their communities that they’re just well known. I recently realized that I am that friend for some people. My friend group is a Venn diagram.

If life is fleeting, then I want to fill it with moments like a belly full of warm soup and a soak in a hot tub with my love, slowing down, and making sure they feel as treasured as they are.

Today I have filed to refinance my vehicle, made plans for self care, carefully set up a skunk camera, had a depression treatment and resisted stealing a dog. I’m doing so good. Look at this baby. You bet your sweet ass I pet this dog.

Got home from work, right on the roof to make progress on it and stop water from pouring into the house when it rains. Made great progress, looked over at the live trap and saw that it was closed. It’s a skunk. Current status: sobbing over bottomless pasta.

No regrets really but wow hey I turn into a one man confession dispenser when I’m real real drunk. Thankfully I’m also a horrible liar so my confessions are usually just telling my sweeties that I love them SO MANY TIMES. And also sending them pics of my boobs. 😅

Woke up to discovering that my name was dragged into a kink community situation along with accusations of sharing confidential documents and disparaging comments behind someone’s back. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t like the person but I’ll talk shit to their face, IDGAF. So annoying.

If you think autism is a recent phenomenon, let me tell you, buddy. I just listened to a 70 year old man talk for an hour about TREES. Here’s the one he had an arborist bolt back together so it wouldn’t continue to split.

I spent the weekend being a mouse in a mushroom with Erk. Lots of hiking and critters. Brewing tea in the forest. I can’t wait to take my loves to these places.

When you don’t stop to breathe and just be, you miss the sweetest little things. This was a tiny puddle near my camp. At a glance it seemed like muddy water. Up close, it was teeming with life. So happy to exist when I’m surrounded with so many wonderful things and people.

I think my favorite thing about being alone in the office at night is that when I have to go to the Operating Room, I get to take my music with me AND the singing acoustics of the room is always spectacular. I could enjoy this in many operating rooms but I’m a coward.

For 16 years, Jay Wiseman was so much more than a teacher or mentor. He was my friend, collaborator, co-conspirator, and the Tony Stark to my Pepper Potts. We taught, laughed, created, argued, and grew together. I am heartbroken to lose him. I’ll miss you, you ridiculous bastard.
