Howdy there!

AK = Alaska!

Couch surfing is a good thing to go with....you might wanna check out the sanctuary, although it might just be like the Bay Area in Thailand , if you get my drift. Having said that it has all the stuff you need to cure yourself from doing all the other stuff Two very dear friends of mne hung out here for a month and raved about it.
Good luck with the travels...always good to shake off the cobwebs.Sanctuary

What did you study?

Love you some womp womp? Kinky It takes me back to the mid 1990s when Jungle was in full effect here and darkside had that same attitude.
It all began in Africa-ca-ca-ca... hehe

Thanks for the comment about the pictures ! I do what I can with that 150 dollar digital, but I pine for much more camera.

ROTFLMAO. I *knew* you sent that package.

I don't have much faith in the police, but there are some anomalies out there! Happy to hear you got one of the good ones, though it totally lowers your street cred, for sure. I had an cop stop me in Oregon while on tour-very early in the morning and I was going twice the speed limit through his little town. I also had 3 drunk band mates, oozing alcohol fumes from every pore, so when I opened the window to talk to him I was not expecting a civil interaction. He ran checked my papers, ran my name, and wished us luck at our next show. I shook his hand.

Liminal-

Your hair looks amazing. very modern and sexy! I have always considered Burning Man; it is a bit of a trek from NY state, and to fly with camping gear is aweful, but i have many fellow pagan festival goers that love it! I would be interested to here about your experience. Are you into the fire dancing arts? I have been spinning poi and various other firetoys for a while now-- I love it and it is so addicting. No hula hoop for me though; I always did suck at hula hoop. Have you seen the funnel things designed so women can pee standing up? A friend of mine said they were all over Buring Man last year?

have fun! Have beautiful Visions. Watch the sun rise in the desert, Be safe

I would ask if you enjoyed the burn, but I am sure that you did. So did I. I am glad that you made it back safely.

Thanks for the Bday wish deary hey me and towelboy maybe having drinkees sometime soon care to join?

Getting asked for your ID is a massive complement, but one that has not happened to me in many a year

Thank you so much for the update, as soon as I read it I remember hearing about it on the news. I hope justice see's sense and does the right thing, will watch this space for the outcome.

That is by far the most perfect strawberry, we had loads from our garden but none looked like that! (was the tiramisu home made?)

Keep well and hope you have a great weekend

So Liminal, how did the berry taste??? Garden grown ones are out of this world good aren't they!?

I hope the best for your neighborhood, try to stay clear of trouble.

I am thinknig of you and your neighborhood-- I am lighting candles for everyone's safety. be safe, beautiful.

i too fear the oakland PD.

good morning Liminal-

i am very sorry to hear of the issues in your area. The intersection of racism and institutional power is never good. I understand your dilemma, however, I often struggle with my mostly pacifist self and the anger i feel at people who abuse their power, especially police. I volunteer at mens' prisons and run a pagan group (with three other women) and we deal with the asshat-ness of the gaurds all the time; I have to suck it up, or the warden will just not let us in, but they often abuse their power. it makes be sick when I hear about men getting raped by guards and there is nothing we can do, or it is just worse for our guys. It is very difficult to feel powerless to help the situation.

The spreeding poverty and joblessness in America is causing more and more desperation and violence. i strongly beleive that if everyone could meet their needs- enough food, clean water, approporiate shelter, hygiene and healthcare,something to feel proud about, entertainment - that people would not choose violence, unfortunately this is not the situation . Too many people live in poverty.

I also strongly believe in karma and reincarnation - this police officer will get his. Sometimes, though, that offers little comfort now.

how are you doing with all this? Do you feel safe where you are now? Do you have a place to go if you don't?

thinking peaceful thoughts for you

I was thinking big foot the entire time I read that. Not gona lie. I lean towards the "he's real" side.

That's crazy, I'm glad nothing happened to you, your friend and your doggie. Awesome pictures too
