  • 2018-01-15 TKO from a Kick in the Head

    Last night something happened that has not happened in a really long time. I got kicked in the head by a migraine and it totally took me out. Typically there’s something that triggers a headache. Last time I recall was in August and it was the night before the total solar eclipse and a terrible…

  • 2018-01-14 Sushiless Sunday Status Update

    No Sushi for me today. I’m on day 7 of the Whole 30, which means no rice, which means no sushi. Waaaaaa. While I am on the subject of food, for today’s status, lets just start there. Here are my musings about this Whole 30 thing so far… Day 1 – I love eggs, this…

I…

  • 2017-12-31 Sunday Status Update – NYE Style

    Which is to say. I’m dropping the ball. I’m exhausted and my mind is in a fog which seems to be swirling in a manor very unnatural to fog. It’s speed more like clouds foreshadowing a tornado. I have so much information and inspiration that has been dropped on me these past three days that…

  • 2017-12-31 MFA Residency Day 3 – Space and Time Matter

    I broke away from the pack about 2:30 and took my leave of this building with a dual purpose in mind. I wanted to relieve myself of the claustrophobia of being hold-up in a somewhat confined space surrounded by freezing temperatures outside and I also needed to get tights or leggings for my outfit tomorrow.…
