I spent the better part of an hour yesterday talking Bu into the perfect Mother’s Day gift: a morning wandering around the East End Yard Sale. (The hipper side of town, i.e. the one I do not live in, has a huge yard sale the day before Mother’s Day every year. It is teh awesome.) [...]
One more burst of sexual energy for the Sexography GBBMCMMCGVBVC… whatever campaign :p I spent some of my birthday money on a frame for the new piece, and after the printing costs I’m going to donate what’s left to RAINN. It’s not a lot but it adds up. Throw in a few bucks with me? [...]

The sexiness is just growing over the cute little mommy blog like rampant ivy or kudzu now. It’s unsettling me- who reads this that I don’t know reads this? But on the tails of that thought: is it really surprising or shocking to read that an adult woman has had sex and masturbates? (And then, [...]

I’m feeling you so vividly right now. The spring is our time, the two of us wild and stoned in the forest clearing. Aries and laughing and twin skirts blowing in the breeze, twin souls like Demeter and Persephone- firmly, solidly mother/daughter too. The sisterhood never took precedence over your wings holding me and your [...]

Bu’s Valentine’s Day card. I’m feeling really self-satisfied right now and am enamoured with my own cleverness.
Edit: I hope Bu isn’t freaked out I have never gone humorous with the Val Day card- I usually go the metaphysical Rumi-quoting route. I had a great one a few years ago with a human heart and [...]

We are enthralled with our woodburning stove. It’s an insert in the fireplace. Been here since Bu’s Granny and Pa built this room onto the house*. We went through a phase the year before we conceived when Bu was loving to chop wood and build fires but then the computer equipment was there in that [...]

I don’t do resolutions… technically. Because there is too much negative energy in the ‘Verse expecting them to be broken. Buuut…
We had an impromptu ritual last night ending at midnight, wherein we burned little papers with descriptions of the bad stuff we were praying to banish.
weight
bad food
anxiety
poverty
night-time nummins, with scribbles on the paper by the baby
etc.
And [...]

We delivered the babe to the grandies so I could sleep. Usually one great night recharges me and I’m OK. (This is, in fact, the case this a.m.) We started to attempt to dig our home out from the chaos, and I was just spinning. Anxiety attack over nothing/everything. Bu was coaching me through it [...]

…is the leading cause of undereye circles. The culprit isn’t, as I believed until 30 seconds ago, nursing a toddler. I’m not super vain, but I like to be on my prettier scale when there’s a lot of visiting and photo snapping happening. This means that I have been plastering makeup under my eyes the past few days.

Nag Champa incense is the scent of my authentic self. I didn’t realize this until Marianne’s beautiful package arrived from Sonoma. This mama is an incredible gifter. I’m so floored by this stuff I can’t believe it. And it all smells like the Nag Champa she included This is the secent of my mom, of my [...]
