Going Coastal 017

IMG_7403

So, as promised, I’m podcasting from Vermont!  The sound is not great, so please forgive!  I’ve had a bit of time to think and process and expand my mind a bit, and this podcast is very revelatory of that notion.  I hope you enjoy, and if you’ve got a moment, please drop a note with [...]


Thoughts on Motion

IMG_7405

Ever since I was young, I told myself stories to help me drift to sleep.  Originally, they started off as journeys away from my family.  One of my earliest stories was sort of based on the plot of one of my favorite books, My Side of the Mountain by Jean Craighead George.  This story, about [...]


In Vermont, Realization

IMG_0163

I’m here, in Vermont.  It has been a couple of day to settle in, to get my head unspun from my life outside and off of this mountaintop, and back to where I really need to spend more time – in my creative space.  I’ve reconnected with friends, celebrated their accomplishments (with more of that [...]


The Night Before

Tomorrow, I’m off to Goddard.  Tonight, I’ve managed to get packed.  I’ve washed and dried all the clothes I’m going to take.  I’ve also got my tookus to the grocery store for some first-night-there sundries (wine, sharing snacks) and some other things I needed. This residency is going to be unlike any other. Last residency, [...]


Preparations

I’m leaving for my third visit to Vermont, and to school, in a few short days.  I’ve got a few more shifts at work (closing shifts today and tomorrow, and an opening shift on Wednesday) and then, I’m off.  I really think this time, this visit to Vermont is going to be quite the turning [...]

Thanks for downloading episode 16!  Today’s show is a bit long, but there’s a lot on my plate I wanted to share.  I hope you enjoy it.  The sound gets a little weird at time, so I do apologize for that.  Hopefully I can sort that for next show! This week’s music: Youtopia (feat. Adam [...]


Awakening

IMG_7253

There is something of an awakening going on inside me these days. The initial flurry and fire of new-found love has now formed a white-hot ember inside, and it is as if a certain purification is under way inside me.  Slowly, the heat and fire is clarifying things, clearing out cobwebs, and literally burning down [...]


Redoubled Effort

IMG_7305

I am currently on a course of amoxicillin and Mucinex.  I will be on Sudafed tomorrow to finish off the gross that’s in my sinuses.  As of last Monday, I was diagnosed with bronchitis and a sinus infection.  At the same time, no less. I won’t get into the sordid details of getting medical treatment, [...]


I Love Technology

Nathan and I are connected.  On a lot of levels, and in a lot of ways.  Funny enough, if you look at our relationship from the outside, you might draw the conclusion that this is just a virtual reality.  Let me list the reasons why. 1. We met on Scruff.  An app on our phones [...]
