It’s a beautiful sunny Sunday and we’re taking down the tree but leaving up all the lights because SAD. Twinkle lights have helped me through winter for a long time now. There will be reading and journaling and dancing. Interspersed with angry outbursts ((ha)) because obviously… this world… #cat

Good things yesterday that felt like optimistic omens of sorts: 1) the dropping of the Jack Smith deposition; 2) the osu loss (sorry not sorry); 3) the beauty of the Stranger Things finale and how the entire series was about overcoming trauma through witness, community, and love. Begonia last night:

This year has sucked. But bits of sanity, as always, came from this cat and art. A few easy ones off the top of my head:
My favorite pop song this year: Where is my husband, Raye
My favorite book: Loving Sylvia Plath, Emily Van Duyne
Fave TV: Stranger Things (OF COURSE)
Movie: Sinners

What if the mystery song in the last Stranger Things is Radio Ga Ga? Look at the lyrics (if you're into this). Side note: they didn't say it was a song that had never been in a movie but a song from an artist from whom it's difficult to get permission. #strangerthings #cat

One of the prettiest skies I’ve seen since moving here almost six years ago. It only makes me miss the constantly dramatic and HUGE skies of Erie (PA) even more. 🎄🎄🎄 (Columbus, OH...)

I woke up angry today for every child and woman who has had to suffer the anger and violence of the m3n in their lives, from families to the larger systems. I’m sick of it all. So here’s Daisy. We weren’t sure she’d live through summer and then she got better. 🎄🥰🎄 #caturday

EXTRA angry about everything today but I taught my last class of the year and I’M OFFICIALLY ON BREAK. 🎄🎄🎄 a bunch of regulars showed up whom I adore so this was a perfect way to end my teaching year. 🥰

8 years ago. Innocent of what was to come. Before a handful of psychopathic putrid beings started stealing our life energy and ruining anything beautiful and good that they can get their hands on. Yep, I’m a little bitter.

Stayed in town while my husband went to our hometown for Thanksgiving so I could take care of our elder cat, Lilly, who is 18 and needing special feedings. She is still silly and feisty 💕💕💕 #cat

This was about 11 years ago... I was about 46, and it took me so much freaking courage to post this but it led to wonderful things, including people coming to this studio from all over the country to learn about my Peony Somatic Dance. Super cool. (And it has my fave band, Spoon so there's that.)

After ten days of a virus that wasn’t horrible but kept me really tired, I finally got back to the gym this morning. I’m looking a little worn out…

I’ve worked with teenagers before but in a therapeutic setting. Last night was the first time I’ve worked with them at a dance school. And sometimes I wonder if my work works outside those therapeutic settings. But of course it does. They were a delight. Time just flew. 🥰🥰🥰 #peonysomaticdance #butoh
