about me
Fey imp w/ fangs in form of cuddly curvy mermaid out of water. (The feedback confirms this). When back in the water, whether ocean, hotspring, stream or shower, I am at one w/ the world, third-eye awake & happy, smiling like a happy fool.. Feel the same way in creative flow; singing, making love- it's all eros. At home in various personas.
Not surprisingly, I'm a fiery Pisces: Pisces Sun & Mercury, Aries Venus, all in the 12th house. Sag Moon & Jupiter in the 8th, Aries rising. Mars in Gemini (hence the word-lust) Saturn in Cap at midheaven. Life-long insomnia has led to a love for the nightime . Voracious reader. Have absorbed uncountable # of films. Write poetry in longhand & stick it on Word later. Getting back into creating, & working as a silkpainting artist, which was something I previously did for yrs. Love doing ritual theater & poetry performance, going to live theater & films. ADD isn't attention defict- it's attention difference- I loves me some tangents! Museums & libraries are nifty environments. They need more pillows, & later hours, but then, most places do. Tribal Jewitch. I once had the privilege of creating the part & embodying Lilith at one of our Witches Ball rituals- enormous fun & not that big a stretch. Singing is a great joy; often play music w/ friends. This being Eugene, there are endless cozy potlucks. I like the soft, partly cloudy days best... 4/09- So happy to be udating this... A couple of months ago, finally had the big scary surgery, & am now sporting a titanium bionic hip joint. Though it'll take awhile before healng is complete, little by little, I'm getting my life back... & damn am I fuckin' HAPPY!!!!!!! Yeeeehaaaawwww!!!! I'm off the crutches, using a cane but less & less so, & walking more, & further than I've been able to in a long, long time. For years, I was increasingly sidelined by an old hip-joint injury (1st sustained when dancing like a hurricane) that threw my body seriously out of whack, increasingly causing chronic pain. No cartilage between bones does that... grind. I'm doing physical therapy, & other healing stuff- healing this is a major focus for now... I can't wait to get back to dancing, traveling more, hiking, camping; being in the green wild places I love. For now, those passions have to wait... but they're always in front of me, keeping me going. I'm so grateful my world is expanding, & the pain is gone gone gone. And very soon... I'm headed for a flatter trail, out in woods & lined by waterfalls.

I was dreaming in my dreaming of an aspect bright and fair and my sleeping it was broken but my dream it lingered near in the form of shining valleys where the pure air recognized and my senses newly opened I awakened to the cry that the people / have the power to redeem / the work of fools upon the meek / the graces shower it's decreed / the people rule The people have the power The people have the power The people have the power The ... read more

www.politifact.com Great anytime, but especially in a campaign year. I like their format of using a Kinsey-type scale- the "Truth-O-Meter. The absolute bullshit end of the scale is deemed "liar liar pants on fire." In spite of the giggle-inducing names, really, a very fairly done site that's been around for a few years. If you check out some of the... read more
OK, haven't been up for public blogging much lately- been favoring the ol' longhand leather journal again. But hey, it's a rainy Sunday, & I'll bite on these questions:

1. Are you taller than your best friend? No. I'm not taller than many adults. I am, however, blessed w/ 2 good lovely friends shorter than I- Debby & Lisa. 2. Do you have a favorite type of pen? Of course. No, you can't borrow it. 3. Have you ever worn the opposite sex's underwear? Colorful boxers as shorts. They w... read more

I'll check in a little here & there, but won't have much computer access. Thinking of more Dad activities...We can go to the pool at his clubhouse, go out to eat a few times. I'm taking him to a hearing specialist one afternoon. We can see "The Bucket... read more
This email from The National Resources Defense Council was in my inbox today... thought it would be nice to share this much-needed victory for sanity & compassion... because we need to hear the good stuff, too.
