As much as I can stand the current iteration of the US Republican Party (I won’t say”conservatives,” because there is nothing conservative about it), I’m very fed up with my Democratic Party, as well.

These cowards in the Slow Learner’s Caucas make me sick to my stomach. Let’s primary these fools.

I am learning that this idea is a critical component of living an examined life. Learning to identify the stories that my head tells my heart started in yoga.

But adding an intentional positive self-talk practice in my daily routine had to come from therapy.

The Bewitching is still my favorite. But I borrowed this from the Houston Public Library while I impatiently wait for The Seventh Veil of Salome.

I loved this! I’ve read six or seven of her novels, and this one stole my # 2 favorite spot.

Untamed Shore is up next!

I grew up with cats. But I don’t identify as a cat-person, because cats are often assholes. But this little sweetie charmed me on my walk yesterday. Truth be told, I brought a pocket full of Friskees for my walk today.

Another encounter with my neighbors on my second walk of the day. The fawns have mostly lost their spots. Our little ones are nearly grown.

The view at the end of my daily morning walk, this is your most effective habit I’ve found to reset my circadian rhythm.

I met a new neighbor today on my morning walk in Brazos River Park.

Vampire novel set in 19th century Mexico? Yes, please.

Much of my work takes place on the US / Mexico border. So the places and landscapes you describe read like home to me.

I re-read The Stand (last read while I was attending U.S. Army Airborne School in 1994) in preparation for this release.

I found that the story still had some magic for me. And this collection of diverse authors riffing on this post apocalyptic world was welcome and refreshing.

Working on the US / Mexico border today (my favorite part of the state), I found this species of Diapheromera —walking stick.
