  • 2018-11-21 The Art of Thinking Differently

    In residency last sumner for my MFA program I attended a lecture where the faculty talked about being an artist and experiencing the world differently. I think she alluded to “seeing”, but I think it applies to all the senses. If you can see the world differently, then you can most certainly hear the world…

  • 2018-11-17 Hey Mr. DJ – What’s Up?

    This morning I woke up around 6 and that would normally be fine, but I didn’t go to bed until close to midnight. That equates to less than 6 hours of good sleep. I was doing great for the week and then, WHAM, it all went down the drain because of one night. In any…

  • 2018-11-15 Pulse Check on My November Diet Goals

    We are halfway through November and I at the beginning of the month I had challenged myself to make some changes this month. I might spin this as a healthy Eating thing, but in actuality it’s a healthy drinking thing. My two goals were to not drink coffee and not drink alcohol. Now that it’s…

  • 2018-11-12 Conditioning for Change

    I’m not finding my chi today. I’m wasting 20 minutes at a time with indecision about what to do with my day. This is what happens when you mostly operate in JIT mode (just in time). No work truly needing to get done and nothing pressing for school. I didn’t have enough sleep and I’m…

  • 2018-11-12 The Twisted Burger.. 3

    I think everybody knows by this point that you never hype something up when you recommend it to another person. OK, maybe not everyone, because I was told by a source I trust greatly that the burger at the Twisted Cork was “the best burger” they had ever had. That’s a pretty tall order. Being…

  • 2018-11-11 Any Given Sunday

    Oh yeah, like today!! We started decorating for Christmas. We re-arranged the living room furniture. We made a space for a new tree – OUR tree. First we laid in bed until 10 and that was glorious. Then we had breakfast and cleaned and talked and went through the storage area. I was pleased to…

  • 2018-11-10 Hopscotch Thoughts

    I submitted my 3rd packet of the semester which is part of the requirements for my program about 2 weeks ago. I just received a response back a few days ago and have not opened it yet because I was overloaded with work stuff. I’m planning to spend some quality time with that today. I’m…

  • 2018-11-09 Finally Friday!

    Longest week ever!! I feel like I got thrown under a few busses this week and had to do my best to conceal how butt-hurt I am about having tire tracks across my back. You remember the one about my putting more focus on school and trying not to get sucked into the work madness.…
