Blogging is interesting. Like, it’s a medium for the reader, just like theater is a medium serving the audience. So, I should be providing you with the best I have to offer: stories that make you smile and thoughts that make you stretch and photos that show my world. But what happens when I’m justContinueContinue reading “Nothing in particular”

Yesterday is gone. Another day is here. Do something new…
In honor of her birthday, here are things she has taught me. Twenty-five of the things, in fact, in honor of the “25” candle we put on her cake, for no other reason than that was the candle we had. Ahem. I present: Don’t wear print-on-print. Taught when I wanted to wear my bicycle-print skirtContinueContinue reading “Yesterday is gone. Another day is here. Do something new…”
A Day of Play…in May.
Self-promote? Who? Me? On my own blog? Never. Cough. But! In YOUR interest, here’s something really, really cool which you should think about: Play in a Day. What, what, what is this insanity, you ask? Basically, I’ve invited some of the most disgustingly-talented people I know to gather. I’m just going to throw them togetherContinueContinue reading “A Day of Play…in May.”
The newest burrito
So, one time, on the Camino de Santiago ’13, it was the evening and I was making everyone say their “highs and lows” for the day. On this one day, Carlie and Jesus (the dewd, not the Son-of-God, although the Son-of-God was undoubtedly present) passed a place with a litter of PUPPIES!! Puppies puppies puppies!ContinueContinue reading “The newest burrito”
Did you want to see Colorado pics?
Yeah, so, I went to Colorado. And then I came back and we jumped into Holy Week and I never shared or chatted about the great Sunshine-y State. But, I’ve got another post up today about Holy Week so, why not just add both?? Oh, and I could add a gallery and all your clicksContinueContinue reading “Did you want to see Colorado pics?”
My personal 15 Triduum favorites
This year I visited with friends and parted with, “Merry Triduum!” because I wasn’t sure of the correct greeting. But then a different friend wished me an “Epic Triduum” which fits better, doesn’t it? I didn’t take pictures of the events on Friday or Saturday. Sometimes it’s just better to be present than to rushContinueContinue reading “My personal 15 Triduum favorites”
Holy Thursday
When I knelt today at mass, the mass of the Last Supper, I thought about all the people I’ve been graced to meet: the dusty children of El Salvador, the homeless of Detroit, the little crowd from Colorado, those I’ve met on World Youth Days and through my sibs and through the entire faith community.ContinueContinue reading “Holy Thursday”
Holy week time
It could be that maybe I didn’t transition well into talking and what not, but there are so many things that need to be done–and all of them good and worthy things, you know? In the next few days I need to… call the vet for the guinea pig (don’t worry, routine things) make butterContinueContinue reading “Holy week time”
Getting back in the swingity swing
Hey. Should I have posted something yesterday? Of course. But, instead, we were delayed. We were making Easter eggs, you see. And it was beautiful: lots of people, lots of dye, lots of fire hazards because: no school like the old school. And now, here were are, in Holy Week, my favorite week. There areContinueContinue reading “Getting back in the swingity swing”
Oh hai, I’m alive
I’m alive and more alive and even more, more alive, thanks be to God. My retreat is complete, it’s 1 a.m. and I just finished a night of dancing. Guys, God was so, so mind-blowing good. I can’t even. So, I’m not even going to try. Goose night!
