    Have you ever had that late night moment when all you really want, all you really NEED, is a big thick messy burger from some place fast and on the CDC list of things that can kill you? Close to 11pm, after a really healthy class all about energy, meditation, right living, thinking, breathing and,…

    Well, let’s just say I have nothing special or in particular to share at the moment. That does not mean by the end of the page I will not have. Just not starting out with that intention. That being said, let’s talk intentions. In school, massage therapy – holistic health practitioner tract – when doing…

    There are times when someone dies, passes, is taken, whatever you choose to call it, that the event is not a surprise or even considered a bad thing. Long illnesses or catastrophic injury. Extreme number of years. While still saddening to the survivors it is not a surprise or negative. At least, not to me.…

    This is always a strange time. The last evening of a run. When I get cast in a show it is usually something to be excited about. Then rehearsals start and the work begins. It is still fun and enjoyable for the most part but it is work, paid or not. Then, it becomes a…

    I borrowed that title from a film I was background in many many years ago. It, the title, came rushing back into my head last night in a flurry of phone calls, door knocks and emails. I am still, ten hours later, laughing. I may hurt a feeling or two here but will try not…

    Where is my soul? What is my soul? How did it become attached to food and music? Why do so many have so many views and descriptions for it? Here’s the deal. This is a turbulent time in my life. (News? I think not.) On suggestion I have been reading, along with a few other…

    …, like most things, it could be worse. My news today was not good. It was however, the better of the bad news it might have been. I do have macular degeneration. I have the common ‘dry’ kind that effects a large portion of population. This I see as good news since it means there…

  • 11 months

    May 4th. The day before the more American than Mexican holiday of Cinco de Mayo. A short milestone for me. Eleven months sober. Or, more exactly, eleven months of not drinking. I made a point of the difference some time ago. One is working to make yourself a better person while not using. The other…

    If this place was a home for sale in the current slumping real estate market, I would say, “Attractive, soothing water feature”. If normal no smoke in the butt description was appropriate, I would call it a fountain. If this place was on wheels, “It’s a whiskey barrel with plastic and a pump! So what?…

    Let me start by saying, I am completely amused with that title. MENTAL HEALTH! In another life time, in another world I met a psychiatrist, at roughly 4;30pm on a Sunday. I was attached to a table, unable to move much of anything and in an act of defiance, I didn’t move the parts I…
