I don't blog on here much; I do check out and comment on sets all the time though.

I have been without a computer forever. My last one died at the end of my 25pg critical paper for my MFA. I got a Kindle Fire which is great for entertainment, but not so good at work or even typing (my fingers and virtual keyboards don't...

I don't understand some of the people that post on the SG photos; there are no words that can speak to the trolls' stupidity. Why be so negative in life?

Lest week I read some of my poetry at an event aimed toward starting a discussion about class. It was pretty cool.

And back to writing I go...

I have been computerless forever. My laptop fried out on me at the end of my 25 page critical paper for my MFA. I saved the paper, got it in, and it is fine. But now I use a Kindle Fire and my phone most of the time, but I hate posting off of those two devices.

Today? We are going to go down to "A Bite of Seattle" and check out food

Then to yoga. Yoga is still a strange thing to me. It kicks my ass muscle wise and I love the stretching. It is a little hard to get used to sometimes, the poses, the breathing, the expanding my body and becoming light. What? Yeah, it isnt the same...

Today, I have to go to the library today and do some work, and I REALLY need to write some new poetry. but, I seem to be dry or something, nothing inside my head. I have two new ones (one done, one in process).

My kitty Toby is still sick. BUT! He is doing better, not so much mucus and crap coming out of his face. It was gross. I hope he gets better soon.

Yesterday, the fireworks at Gas Works Park were great. We spent most of our afternoon in Seattle. It was a nice day. We ate come killer good food, hung out in a friend's apartment...
