the trouble with the tesla
+ so. kid and i have been buying weekly ceramic studio time every wednesday about 30 miles away, and up until last night - there has been ZERO problem taking the tesla. in fact, i have been fighting the general suggestion that my car is not meant for the tundra, because WHATEVER, if it's snowy enough that clearance is an issue, it's snowy enough ( Read more... ) -
wearing my layers like a martyr
ooookay, it's cold. i can handle cold, i guess, but when there's wind? i just sort of want to give up and hibernate until spring. i went out to check on creatures and the snow was blowing horizontally, so i had to try and reconcile that with my knowledge of gravity and physics and weather and normalcy.

insular moments
in five days, i will have reached a full year of my healthward bound journey and can say with complete and utter certainty that making that decision to change my life - and sticking with it - has been one of the best and loving things i have ever done for myself. the reality is that there is still quite a bit of work to do, but it's far, far less ( Read more... ) -

it will be 2025 before i blink
~ lucy ricardo is not doing as well as i'd hoped - but this seems like something she'll recover from. poor old girl has trouble walking in the mornings (stiffness? side effects from a chicken heart attack? mites? dengue fever?) and seems content to just stand about, so this morning we put her in a little coop with food and water for rest and ( Read more... ) -
in the sunshine with my mans
to say i'm gutted by the election would be an understatement of epic proportions; the dirty, ugly underbelly continues to slither along unabated for another four years and at this point, i wonder if it's even possible for us to mend our fractured society or if we're just permanently fucked.
