In which there’s more, but not much more… because I didn’t write it. Most nights, I slept with my windows wide open and could hear the surf. It was glorious. If I left the hall early at night, I could hear the bhajans slightly while lying in bed, and sometimes in the early mornings I […]
In which I use my passport! And spend eighty hours in airports and airplanes! I’ve been thinking about writing this post for most of a month now, because I wasn’t sure how, since it wasn’t really a touristy trip. I went to see my Sadguru, an enlightened person, an avatar, for spiritual purposes, and most […]
In which I’m on vacation, as of Saturday at 6:10pm when I clocked off work. I’m pretty much packed! Had to buy new luggage, because ours were a few inches too big for the new carry-on sizes and I don’t want to check anything. New suitcase is green, within parameters for cabin luggage on Air […]
In which I’m going to use my passport! I’ve got the month of July off work, and I’m going to Amritapuri. I complained about the tedium of shopping for flights, so my dad offered to do it for me. Today I’ve bought some items for the trip, including a rain poncho, bug repellent, and a […]
In which I slept until one o’clock. The Yeti is off at Microsoft for a week-long tech conference, and I have a cold or something. Started out yesterday feeling tired after a good night’s sleep, swollen glands, and a vaguely sore throat. Went to work, came home. Woke up today feeling so incredibly meh I […]
In which there’s an update. I used to find it much easier to post regularly when I both had things to bitch about and felt fine about bitching about things. But now I think it’s not that great a habit, and also whatever I might have to complain about is less a problem and more […]
In which I’ve been considering the size of Oregon lately. I have recently learned that Oregon is about the size of the United Kingdom. The entire United Kingdom, which is, like, three countries. Oregon’s actually got a few square miles more space than that. What the hell. How are all those people and towns and […]
In which we went somewhere! Worked Saturday and did, like, an insanely busy twelve-hundred dollar day at the cheese shop. Sunday we slept in and cuddled, which was fucking lovely, and then cleaned the house, packed out, and drove to Portland. Arrived around eight o’clock, and crashed at my friend Leila’s house. My other high […]
In which there’s travel! And I repeat myself! Going to see Amma in D.C. this weekend! Jai Ma! It’s the most wonderful time of the year! I think this is my twentieth year in a row going to see Her, which is astonishing and weird. Staying in a Marriott. My man decided not to come […]
In which there’s travel! We went to New Hampshire! In a plane! We stayed in a hotel! This was the view! I wrote about it in my traveler’s notebook! Amma’s programs were in another hotel, so I had to walk back and forth twice a day! My Google Fit app told me I walked over […]
