In which there’s a blurb. I slept really late. So late that it’s 2:19 and I’ve only been up long enough to shower, cook and eat, and make the bed! I’m not even dressed! My hair’s clean, though, and this was delicious: I have no idea why I thought I needed twelve hours of sleep, […]
In which, yet again, I become what I judge. This time was quicker than usual! (It took twenty years for me to end up fat and the owner of a fake Christmas tree, but only weeks to end up with a Traveler’s Notebook!) Behold. My Traveler’s Notebook. This object has totally captured my imagination. I’m […]
In which there was a long-ass road trip for both of us, some hotel lounging for him, and some much-needed spiritual renewal for me. Tuesday we slept in and then packed and drove to St. Charles, IL. It took forever, or about six hours. Checked into our hotel and slept. I was so excited to […]
In which many exciting changes — a move, a job change, and not one but two opportunities for travel — are afoot! The lease is up here, and while this apartment has some incredible amenities — such as southern exposure, a gas range, amazing cross-ventilation, and a wonderful view of a park with a pond […]
In which I spend too much goddamned time with the band. The Ilwaco blues & seafood festival booked us on Friday night this year, so I took the day off from work and was standing, dressed and packed, on the front porch at nine-thirty in the morning as I’d been asked. Rob didn’t bother showing […]
In which I fly! To Seattle! On a plane! Last week I went to Seattle to see my beloved Satguru, Amma, properly known as Sri Sri Mata Amritanandamayi Devi. While I was there I enjoyed a lovely retreat, learned a new meditation technique, suffered a vicious spring cold, had a series of trippy spiritual revelations, […]
In which there’s a blues festival. Saturday morning my alarms went off at 5:35 and 5:45 respectively. I showered, dressed, grabbed my gig bag and walked out the door at 6:15. IN THE MORNING. After sleeping maybe two hours. Curt and Cookie picked me up, we grabbed breakfast at McDonald’s and drove to Richland, where […]
In which I share the story of my 2010 pilgrimage to Mother’s feet. Guru brahma gurur visnuh gurudevo mahesvarah guru saksat parambrahma tasmai srigurave namah (I prostrate to that Sri Guru who is Brahma, Vishnu, and God Maheshwara, and who is verily the Supreme Absolute Itself.) At the very front of the archana book, there […]
In which I recap my madcap, whirlwind, SUPERfun trip to the cit-ay! By 8:30 Friday morning I was in Sheila‘s van, heading west. Her awesome daughters let me ride shotgun, which was supercool of them. The ride was lovely – watching the land change from desert to rain forest is beautiful every single time I […]
In which there’s about to be a wee bit o’ travel. I’m going to Portland this weekend! My girl from the paper saw my tweet about wanting to go see Cory Doctorow sign books at Powell’s and offered me a place in her van! I’ve got a ride up the Gorge and back! Squee! I […]
