Misbehaving Tuesday: Lingering Edition
Full-on misbehaving is probably off the menu for the next couple of very busy months. Nonetheless, I still engage in willful disregard of responsibilities every Tuesday; at a minimum, I sleep in. That’s right. On a Tuesday. Until 8:30 sometimes.
Unfortunately, even the sleeping in this morning was not quite as satisfying as usual, mostly due [...]
Waves
This afternoon a dream from overnight came back to me. I wanted to get it down so I wouldn’t forget, and since I was getting ready to leave and had just a little time, I decided to draw it instead of write it. This is unusual for me – I did not inherit any of [...]
Miscellaneous Tuesday
After my mopey fork revelation on Saturday, I spent some time getting quiet about life. I had a few nights of dreams about backbends, smoking, and the number 380. I came to two decisions:
1. Sometimes, the truth sucks, but it is still ok.
2. I am ready for whatever is next: absolutely certain that things are [...]
Lost and Found
I think I had some one else’s dream last night. If there are any twenty year old student teachers teaching high school English out there who have been dreaming about shoes and little dogs, we probably need to talk.
Specs
It may very well be time for me to give in and get some reading glasses. Through much of high school and college, I wore them when I got tired, but I haven’t needed them for the past ten years, nor do I want to need them. But, alas, twice recently I’ve dreamed about buying [...]
How I Kick My Own Ass

In the dream I was standing in the living room of an apartment. There was a man in one of the bedrooms with a burn on his chest, screaming from the pain. A nurse with a tub of wet gauze walked into the bedroom to [...]
Gratitude happens in mysterious ways.
It took me a while to get through the essay on ahimsa for my teaching website. I got stuck on the last paragraph, so I walked away from the computer, sat down with my mala, and did a few rounds of meditation on ahimsa. It worked, and I finished the essay. Earlier in the day [...]
Get me off this crazy thing.
Regarding the wacky side effects of drugs that appear in approximately .014% of users: It turns out that I am the .014% of users. Radiating back pain and headache over the right eye? Got it. Nausea, fatigue, and sleep disturbances? Right on schedule. Dry mouth, indigestion, and metallic taste in one’s mouth? I’ll take one [...]
TBA
Recently I had a dream about driving to Arizona, staying up all night, and looking at the clock when it was 4:11 and 4:12. Now I’m wondering if maybe my cousin in Arizona is going to have her baby on 4/11. At 4:12. Or at 4:11 on 4/12. Or maybe even 4/23. Hmmmm.
