On one hand it feels like this month went past really really fast & I’m wondering where did it go?
On the other hand, I did manage to get stuff down on paper–(well & into the computer), reconnect with some long-lost friends & meet a couple of new people who have been living on ‘parallel’ courses [...]

Got up in pincha mayurasana for the first time (okay, I was up against the wall, my legs weren’t straight but hey–my first time!!!)
And saw I’m listed as a contributor in the next issue of ReadTheseLips– see
my stories aren’t online yet–but soon, I hope!
The other names listed are pretty awesome/terrifying though. I mean even with [...]

This is the first morning in over a week I’ve had a chance to log on the computer at 9am instead of checking in around/before 6am (any emergency mail? no? everything else can wait…) and I’ve just realised March is almost over–
Okay, I’ve got ‘required’ word count in & vomit draft is printed, giving myself [...]

Turned to serious retail therapy after posting yesterday–to me that means Mycofarm Mushrooms & 3 kinds of tofu, 80 bond paper (my printer was out), organic carrots & apples & real Bircher Muesli so I can dissect it & make my own… to more calls from Dr Seet & SPH people saying I should go [...]

… because even though I keep getting calls asking me whether I’ll be going/what I’ll be wearing I haven’t actually been invited–
Adeline (reporter from Life!) who called a couple of days ago about my outfit & learned I didn’t know anything about when/where/what was happening was nice enough to get someone from Music & Movement [...]

We had trumpeter at service this morning! & hot cross buns donated by Garden Slug & red bean rice cakes made by Sally…
& the sketch went okay even though I had not realised it was ‘in place’ of a sermon rather than in addition to. Had I realised that (in time) I think I [...]

Last time I was there was before Mediaworks did its rise & fall (which shows both how long it’s been & how old I am…)
Today’s Arena recording:
9 am to 2.30 pm is a long long long stretch even with lots of bottled water

Look! AN AMERICAN THIO LI-ANN!
Here are a few quotes from Rep. Kern’s hateful speech…

… so far at least.
Went to SPCA for my volunteer time this morning. Was a bit late because 1) dear ms C elected to pee on herself & her bedding late last night & needed 3 rounds of cat shampoo… finished around midnight. Still, an almost 20 year old cat is a triumph & she [...]

Back in FCC after last week’s sneezy-fits. Today Gary talked about how we are all like snotty, shitting infants in God’s POV; no matter what we do, we can’t earn or deserve the love that has already proved itself by our existence & our relationship to God.
