I"m Off!

To the high desert and this time I promise to embrace it instead of staring at in wide-eyed and not sure what to do....It's so ON this time! promise to bring many pics back...mwah!

Tell me....

What was an item from your childhood that you remember vividly.....mine was a nude my mom had in the house that I would stare at for hours....

Want to join me?

Let's jump in and cool off! I"m tired of sweating!

Fuckin' blown away!

I worked down at Brownstowne lounge today with the Ninakasi boys....it's funny....I always think that no one has ever heard of me or hardly ever seen me dance.....I think all my friends know how over extremely humble I am....but I was shocked! I feel that I am off the radar being one of the few females in the boys club....I was talking to Troy of Ninkasi brewing company( ohh hell's yeah they are amazing brewers) and was stunned to find out that they knew I had won the Barley cup competition....I was all ready floating on cloud nine with that win...but I found out through Troy that the guys from Ninkaski ( top brewers in oregon by the way) had actually toasted to my winning! Me...little ole female brewer Jen....was toasted to by the boys of Ninkasi....I am floored! I just wanna say thanks to all the peeps who make me blush with compliments of my brewing and dancing...you make my world complete .......I can't say thanks enough of people who I inspire and the girls who represent in the drinking world of beer...there is nothing like seeing the girls drinking the beers.....the females are off the radar for so many of the men drink beer....to see you drink my brews with the beautiful glow of how beer was created by us ladies and to be enjoyed by us again...DAMN! I can't say enough! I love you all so much and am thankful to have you here in my time on this planet.... It passes by so quickly, as if a flash of a camera caught in a second of life...I bow to you with thankfullness ..you make me blush and love what I do...and I will always represent! Ain't no doubt ladies!

Sand and feathers for my head.....

Ohhh my one wish in life is to be able to write....instead I enjoy others lyrics of life...

Summer nights and long warm days
Are stolen as the old moon falls
My mirror shows another face
Another place to hide it all
Another place to hide it all
And Im lost, behind
The words Ill never find
And Im left behind
As seasons roll on by

Sleeping with a full moon blanket
Sand and feathers for my head
Dreams have never been the answer
And dreams have never made my bed
Dreams have never made my bed

And Im lost, behind
The words Ill never find
And Im left behind
As seasons roll on by

Now I wanna fly above the storm
But you cant grow feathers in the rain
And the naked floor is cold as hell
This naked floor reminds me
Oh the naked floor reminds me

And Im lost, behind
Words Ill never find
And Im left behind
As seasons roll on by

If I should be short on words
And long on things to say
Could you crawl into my world
And take me worlds away
Should I be beside myself
And not even stay

And Im lost, behind
Words Ill never find
And Im left behind
As seasons roll on by

Got my sign name....

I have a friend who's sweetie is hearing impaired and we've all been hanging out for awhile...in the deaf community it is a big deal to be assigned your name.....as each person has their own name each person has their own sign name....and you can't make one for yourself....I was honored the other day when Rich came up to me and said we finally got one for you....when signing about me everyone has motioned about my chest tattoo to help tell people which Jen I am....my name is done in my signing the letter J and then sweeping the J across the chest to signify my tattoo.....fuckin sweet! Did my corny happy dance when he told me...I love all the peeps I have in my life ;)

To the ladies of the divine inebriation.....the Unmata scotch ale has been brewed!

Great day brewing....threw in almost five hundred pounds of grain to make this lovely concoction.....history of the scotch ales...these beers tend to be on the maltier side with slight hop additions for hops do not grow well over in the land....it's a beautiful lovely dark dark red brown....I walked around the pub showing everyone it's color...the wort was still so sweet since it hasn't been fermentated but ohhhh I can't wait until tomorrow to see if it's bubbling happily with the energy of some of the most lovely ladies I have met :) For my silly brew friends I got a starting gravity of 1085! The highest I have ever done ! wooot! (as miss erin would say!) I'm excited for it to represent me at the next few brew fests and super excited to bring the bottles down to Blood Moon...and to give little tastes out at Cooley city retreat for it's preview :) Are we drooling yet?

Just those times when you're thinking...when someone has passed....I hope to see them again soon....

On a cobweb afternoon
In a room of emptiness
By a freeway I confess
I was lost in the pages
Of a book full of death
Reading how we'll die alone
And if we're good we'll lay to rest
Anywhere we want to go

[Chorus]
In your house I long to be
Room by room patiently
I'll wait for you there
Like a stone I'll wait for you there
Alone

On my deathbed I will pray
To the gods and the angels
Like a pagan to anyone
Who will take me to heaven
To a place I recall
I was there so long ago
The sky was bruised
The wine was bled
And there you led me on

[Chorus]

And on I read
Until the day was gone
And I sat in regret
Of all the things I've done
For all that I've blessed
And all that I've wronged
In dreams until my death
I will wonder on.....

you run as if i don't see you.......
