Sister (perfect advice)
I am very happy to be experiencing my first attempt at directing and producing a play I wrote. And things are quite challenging; not just for me.

The Actions of Now
…are creating the future. And I am grateful that I can preschedule this post. ‘Cause I don’t think I’ll want to do it tomorrow. isn’t that the rub? so much promised and so little energy to do anything about it all. so much to do (about nothing). a passerby said to me, nonchalantly, you seem…

When You Decide to Give Us No Money
I am grateful for the work co-producer/co-host, Marc Wendt, and I have done with our podcast, Moped Outlaws. I just was checking out our third episode; we’ve come a long way, baby! The title of this post is derived from something I say early in the third episode. Marc and I are about five minutes…
An Extraordinary Machine
Today I am grateful for my body; it acted appropriately today. I had inhaled a giant of a pill, one half a dose of a supplement I take daily. And believe me — these pills are ginormous! I struggle to swallow them on a good day. And today…? Today, the one went down the wrong…
