don't touch til november

spring is here and it feels like summer. full sun and low 80s. i want to do cartwheels.

i went to the dentist this morning and i have one baby tooth and in that baby tooth lives a cavity. i was expecting at least 4 cavities, so i'll take one.

no congrats from me to the men's basketball team which shall not be named but rhymes with puke.

easter in asheville

i hope everybody has a spectacular easter.

may all your lambs of god rise from the dead, just as the dead brown and gray branches are rising with pink and green fluorescence.

may you find all the eggs that bunny hid.

may your new shoes not give you blisters and your easter bonnet not mess up your hair.

prewash

had a fantastic couple days in new york last weekend which involved many things including a baby shower, making a poster, flower arranging, eating meatballs, octopus, and a baby-shaped cupcake, family funtime, playing shufflepuck in the world's smokiest bar and saying 'kisses henry' to my furry brother henry to get him to jump up and lick me on the face.

treacherous

the only thing more fun than moving is moving during a sleetstorm up and down crumbing stairs on the second day of spring

hooray it's over! hooray i'm not moving for another year! at the least! the very very least!

morning has broken

sweet the rain's new fall, sunlit from heaven
like the first dewfall, on the first grass

spring is springing around here. have a great weekend!

tragedy

"mentally preparing" for a possible tragedy or misfortune in the future is toxic. when you imagine it happening and feel the emotions, you make yourself live through the hell, not matter how unlikely it is to happen. you can handle it. you can always handle it. it's never too much. it's always okay.

this was me
taking this picture

last september

it was as big of a rush as jumping from a plane telling myself i was not scared of heights

you mean like lesbian?

nature is god is love

dirty joke

a white dog fell into a mud puddle.





(this was one of my grandfather's [named flops] favorite jokes - but it was a white horse)
