Holy crap, dudes. I asked S. to meet me at BART Friday night, and he shows up with a baby blue 1964 Plymouth Valiant he just bought. While I was in the city. For like 5 hours. SNEAKY. (I went to the Offbeat Bride reading at Booksmith – wow, that was weird but awesome. I would [...]

I’ve never ever had a fancytown vacation, so when we were given the chance to stay here for 2 nights free last weekend, I was completely excited. It’s cheesy as hell (black swans! glowing fountains!) but the chance for some warm sunny days (and seeing family) was too good to pass up. So at 3am [...]

Inspiration and instinct. We so often ignore it, overlook what we know is truth, doubt our inner steering mechanisms. I can feel when I’m pushing it aside, a sense like treading water, outside of the cosmic hum. I’ve been trying to ask the question ‘how does this guide me?’ around action and decision, to be [...]

Whirlwinds! Running all over and packing and getting ready to move into a new wee house with the Professor! (Who really needs a new nom de blog, by the by. He’s not really a Professor!) Very exciting and very scary too! Shhh! But, life is going faster than blogging is possible, so I have a [...]

Dia de los Muertos, San Francisco. Writing about it is kind of like talking during the procession, it’s too difficult, strange. Everyone swirling in their own heads and spheres, separate in a sea of thousands of skeletons, dancing around the demons, communing with the ancestors. So here are evidences of the spirits all around us, [...]

Recommended by the lovely Miss Kristin of Hiss and Hearse, St. Orres is a crazy onion dome hotel and tiny cottages built by hippies [...]

2 weekends ago I was shipped to Seattle for work – I work with Fair Trade Certified and we were doing a promotion with Starbucks. So off to the emerald city I went! We stayed at a hotel I picked from my extensive online research – Hotel Andra. (Ok, not really extensive. But I am [...]

Today is the longest day ever and it’s still happening!!! Woke up bright and early this morning to meet Kate for whirlwind trip to Port Costa before getting on a plane to Seattle. Port Costa, I love you. Tiny witchy ghost town magics. Theatre of Dreams was having a rare open house, so we marveled and [...]

I’ve had a rough few weeks. Endings, beginnings, thunder-crashings of life, hibernation, cocooning, blooming, burying. Sowing seeds and tending metaphorical gardens in all parts of my life, and I’m happier than I’ve been in a long time – sense of joy and possibility and Good. Still, shaken and stressed on the journey, with ends yet [...]

A mindblowing escape with elly, into the hot wind blistering sun of northern California. BLISS. Winding roads, lakes, heat that makes your shoulders melt and all the tension just pour through them & into the dusty dry earth, magic adventures, and so much clarity and conversation and goodness. Pixy-led at every turn, which continued the entire [...]
