Welcome!
How is your world spinning right now? This is where you can detour through my mind. Maybe
we have walked the same spirals before, and can be of some use to each other.

Thanksgiving
 Things I am thankful for today: strong women (like my mom who fought breast and bone cancer
until the very end); hot water and whirlpools; Gay-Straight Alliances and the teens and adults I know who fight homophobia
everyday; homemade cookies that a parent brought to a parent conference today after I forgot to eat my lunch; waking up two
hours before my alarm and getting to snuggle with my wife for two more hours; and my dog who howled with me for five minutes
today when I got home.

The first picture on my homepage is Ruth, my Nana. She had violet
eyes and wrote poetry about lying around in flowerbeds, staring at the clouds. She died about one year
after my mother, but used to send me little china animals and poems about Cinderella in the mail. It's almost Halloween
and, recently, I've been thinking often about all of the dead people I know. Maybe it's just the fall, but pieces
of my past seem awfully active right now in my psyche.

If you want to read about songs, poems, books, events or anything else that I have enjoyed
(or hated) check back often and visit my links. Please browse my book recommendations and comment or respond with recommendations
of your own. I always need something new to read.
