Scampering Back From the Hiatus


I awoke with these names in my head... surely they are characters from a forthcoming story tentatively entitled, "The Merman's Song":

Briinan
Jossuraje
Arthero
Zyne

What a perplexing and delicious way to greet the morning, I love it when that happens.

Jer is heading over to bond and I am trying to break the habit of making him wait when he arrives for me to finish getting ready. It is a tad ridiculous and just keeps happening, one of those atrocious habits that is born out of sheer laziness and poor time management skills.

I just love, love, love, love that guy. If I am the toothbrush, he is the floss, the Ron to my Harry, the Patty to my Sandi, the Pepper to my Doctor, the Dorothy to my Rose, the world's best person and my FAVOURITE. He keeps me sane, he really does.

The picture is from the wedding in which I performed last weekend. I think it is a classy and interesting shot.

There is loads to deliver and reveal as I took a brief hiatus, not intentionally, but I am back and here are some spoilers (blog spoilers, only in my world...):

Giggling during a show and completely "breaking",
Having one of the best conversations with a newfound friend,
My quest to find a person with whom I connect and go on a (clears throat and then gulps) date,
Planning my return trip to NYC,
Discussing the eloquence of one Dustin Lance Black at the Oscars and in his writing of the "Milk" screenplay,
Finding solace in listening to Sandi Patty (and a much overdue blog devoted to one of the most talented storytellers, the embodiment of passion, and one of the reasons I sing)....

Be well poppets and it is good to be alive, it really is... well, I don't really know what it is like to be dead (if there are hauntings and all that then maybe it would give life a run for its money...) but we shall stick with this... It is good to be alive.

I am overflowing with joy today,
The DASH (Haven't used that in a while)

P.S. I have 25 minutes to shower, get ready, and clean this mess of a room so Jer has a place to sit.... GREEEEEAT. :-)

The Unbroken Thread

Happy Christmas. It is upon us in this hour, this time, this day... after all the fuss, the frenetic pace, it smiles as it does each year finding us in some of the same places and in some different phases. I always flip through the rolodex of my life on this day, remembering the last 30 Christmases (well I guess I don't remember the first few that well) like they are all connected in one amazing thread charting my successes, my growth, my defeats, my darkness, and my light. Technically Christmas has not really begun. I have not done the ritual of heading to my Mom's and opening gifts and waltzing to see our Christmas film, but I have already been touched by Christmas. I write a lot, in this land of musings I have shared 257 writings with you, my friend, my reader spirits. Much has happened in these past two years, but let me simply write that I was not sure that I would ever enjoy Christmas again, ever really feel connected to it, no matter what I tried to do, I felt adrift ...

I Love the Clarks

I LOVE THE CLARKS!!!!!!!!!!!! (I used twelve exclamation marks/points to show the significance of the love and because twelve is my cosmic number.) It is that simple. Jay and Karen (and the illustrious Quin) allowed me to move into their lovely home under the proviso I would be out in a few days. Well that was October 18th and, look at your calendar folks, I am still here. I think that finally the light has bounced off of a nimbus cloud that I have not seen before and I might have a dwelling. But... I LOVE these two people. They just get me and leave me to my own devices. In this time where I have sequestered myself off into my own little respite lair, they have let me "do my own thing". And they are such lovely, talented, decent people. It has been my honour to get to know them more and their ultimate collaboration, THE Quin. He is the COOLEST child ever. I adore the boy. Tonight Jay, Karen, and I played a card game called Nerts. I am addicted and I saw new shades ...

Loving the Squiggly

I was typing the other day and instead of hitting the ! key I hit the ~ key. Two odd altercations happened between two friends and me via facebook so I have deactivated my account for a bit. It was hurtful and unexpected. So when I hit the ~ key it made me smile and forget all that nonsense. ~ ~~~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dustin
