Ah, Esteban! One of my oldest friends among the Radical Faeries. He has so many qualities I like and admire...
More restrained than his Cetacean husband, he is possessed of a quiet playfulness that comes across with a wink and a sly smile and a subtle wit that are gentle and endearing.
He is clever with his hands and surrounds himself with flashes of color that dot his universe like stars. He has a good eye for detail and can pretty near always be counted on to be ready with just the right word, and he knows when enough is enough.
Passionate but not strident, he provides a strong foundation for those who depend on him, and he knows his mind. With Cetacea he provides safe space for many; his hospitality is organic and sure. He is kind to animals.
He is a good old friend to have. I am blessed.

What can I say about Esteban??? Well my first impression was that he is a sweet, kind, caring, funny, observant (that part was special to me), and big 'ole teddy bear of a giving fellow. Well, the trueth of the matter was that that wasn't a big deal at the time. Heck I was at my first fairie gathering & I had met so many special people that he didn't stand out. That part is a reflection upon me, not him.
Over the years, or should I say "A shit load" of gatherings later, I discovered that while so many folks came and went, so many grew, so many spiraled downward, Esteban remained true to my first impression. He became one of the few "rocks" that I could hold onto.
The funny (or is it ironic?) part of it is that he is the least 'rock' like person you could ever meet. He remains one of the sweetest, softest, most caring, giving, lovable fellows that have ever enriched my life. For this I thank him. For this I suggest that y'all get to know him better...
It's all good, Lee

about me
Mid-life heath issues forced me to make a decision where I want to be health-wise in the next twenty years. So, I took a great leap of faith and had a bariatric lap-ban procedure performed in early November '07. As of this update I have lost 125 lbs so far. Looking to lose a lot more. Judge for yourself, check out my pictures. They are posted with the latest pix first. Esteban

Chaotica must me my higher power!

I know there probably is a goddess of chaos who I should praise for her presence in my life the last couple of days but her name escapes me. So for now, I will call her Chaotica the Meddler. Toying with my stress levels, bouncing my emotions from...

A very bad faerie.

This was posted on the national faerie yahoo group. I thought I would pass it along here as a reminder that sometimes what we perceive to be an innocent act can be quite contrary to others.

In search of Bam Bam

Hey y'all,
When Mimosa, Drum and Caley returned from their Beltane celebration they brought with them a photo that Sister Soami had given them. It was one that Bam Bam took of Cetacea and I the last time we were Short Mountain. Does anyone know...

I know there probably is a goddess of chaos who I should praise for her presence in my life the last couple of days but her name escapes me. So for now, I will call her Chaotica the Meddler. Toying with my stress levels, bouncing my emotions from one side of the universe to the other, standing on my head to make me feel like a squashed bug, she has been in my hip pocket pinching me every time I try and relax.
I, of course, did the exact wrong thing yesterday by announcing, early in the m...

Our trip to Scarborough Faire yesterday was a wonderful affair indeed. Cetacea, Sophia and I arrived just after the gates opened, just after the rain stopped for the day, and everything was sparkling green and lush. We met up with Cumpanion shortly thereafter and spend the day exploring the park. It was full of treasures, mirth, merriment and song. Not to mention, and I am one not to mention such things, the wonderful cross section of delicious eye candy spanning the ages, sizes, colors a...

Howdy y'all,
What a great time yesterday. Several of the local faeries showed up to Casa de los Mariposas, here in loverly (Judy)Garland, TX, for the bead stringing benefit. We put together nearly thirty strands of 'like-minded" beads to sell towards alleviating the travelling expenses for those lucky NOTX faeries that are able to make the trip to Short Mountain's Beltane celebration.
The beads, along with some covered tins and pens, will be for sale during the gathering either on the p...

Hey y'all,
For many,many years I have been a polymer clay bead fanatic. It seems lately that it is taking up all my free time. I have been getting some nice compliments lately of some of the new stuff I have been producing. So...I entered a contest on Polymer Clay Central's website. They have a monthly challenge for people who do different kinds of polymer clay art to show off what they are doing and possibly win a gift certificate for their efforts. It is not much of a prize but it does h...
