I feel the earth move under my feet...
I felt my first earthquake. Was having cup-cakes and tea with some Raven and Lily ladies tonight. Cool california air, outside on the patio. Good conversation and a rumble. Felt like we were on a train going over some bumps. The lights threaded over our heads swayed, then it felt like we were sliding back and forth on a cruise ship. Wild. This is all interesting because for the last two nights I have dreamt of earthquakes. I hope I didn't make this one happen.

What Are You Looking At?
An old woman, two actually. We are enjoying coffee and cake. Walked down the street from the retirement home to a local coffee shop. The sign on the counter says they won the "Best Roaster of the Year" award. I believe it, the coffee is pretty good. I'm looking at the old ladies watching the palm trees blow in the Santa Anna winds. The view to the mountains is clear. The sky is bright blue with a collage of white puffy clouds. Everything is so simple, so treasured at that age. It was a nice break to get away with them and be reminded.

The Pool
photo by: www.2or3things.blogspot.com/
I've been looking at the pool for a long time now. I got out a few years ago and now I'm all dried up. My skin is cracking. My soul is bored. Meanwhile everyone else is splashing around and playing marco polo without me. It's time to jump in... "Polo"

Where Are We Going Again?
I'm looping and plunging and trying not to get scared looking over the edge, but I gotta ask: "where are we going again?" Doesn't matter I guess. I'm on a road. Roads go places. There are many roads around. I like places. I hope I wake up in Japan.

She Has Been Found.
Hallelujah, it is true. She has been found. I receive the call tonight. My room mate drove me to pick her up. Police station = open. Tow Yard = closed. So close, yet so far away. So tomorrow I will again attempt to retrieve my lost treasure. And I will be buying one of those dorky "club"s you put on the steering wheel. Or I'll change my insurance coverage to "full coverage" and pray someone steals her again! ha! (just kidding state farm.)

Stainless Steel Sharpie
Anyone in the music biz will understand my elation. Or anyone who loves sharpies. And it's refillable. Holy grail. I've died and gone to permanent marker heaven.
I Still Have My Legs
The glory years. 2006 road trip to OKC. A shadow of what once was.
Car-less. In the 21st Century.
Better yet car-less in Los Angeles.
Impossible? Maybe. I will soon find out.
My room mate said I was handling things very well considering. Honestly I'm still in shock. I don't want to commit to a feeling until I know it's a done deal. Till they find my lil Civic broken and hollowed out on a street corner in the middle of Compton. Luckily I don't have a job to worry about driving to, and lucky I don't have a big insurance check coming in to dig me out of this hole. Yes I said DON'T. With everything else going to hell in the economy I'm jobless (meaning I have no need for a car) and I'm pretty sure my insurance company doesn't have the money to replace something like a whole car (even though I have payed them for the past 13 years since I got it!) I called. The insurance lady gave her sympathies but I couldn't help but feel in the next room they were ordering balloons and a chocolate cake with sprinkles. Especially when she said, "Oh honey, your coverage doesn't cover anything." I could see her giving a thumbs up to everyone in the office! Not our problem! "Hope your evening gets better. Goodbye." P-A-R-T-Y!
I turned on Oprah as I was eating a late late lunch. Military men who had lost limbs and been injured in the line of duty. Really? Really. I don't have it that bad. I'm eating my second burrito of the day, this one with every random left over in the fridge doused in Sarracha Sauce so I can't taste whatever is going on between those tortillas. Munch munch. "I lost both my legs." I want to cry. I don't want to cry for my car, I want to cry for the man with no legs. It's not fair. If anything in this world is relative it is our problems. Mine are feeling pretty small at the moment.
My room mate says, "You want a ride to the grocery store with me?" I look at my leftover-cornucopia-burrito and say "Yes."
At least I still have friends.
At least I still have my legs.
I'll let you know what happens to my car....
(to be continued)

Computer. Boo.
My computer, "Zero" died. She has been sent to an Apple specialist somewhere on the planet and will return to me in 10 days. I think she did it on purpose so she could get a vacation. Either way, I'm computerless for the next couple of weeks. Good thing I got that online store started! Ha! All this to say I will be putting a halt on the blog for a spell. I'll see you when "Zero" returns.

The Dresses Are Here!
Funny when perspective comes.
When I let go.
When I move forward and trust.
Trust God.
Trust myself.
Trust my creative instincts.
Stuff Happens.
I sold 5 dresses today.

I still have a lot of work to do to make it what I want, but it's in progress!

Perspective
from: http://www.metanamorph.com/
Perspective. That's what I need. I'm walking over a cliff that's flat. I'm complaining about the cold ice that's just wet paint. I'm going to snap out of it. I'm getting some perspective tonight.

Someday I Feel Like My Head Is In.....
www.meghunt.com
When I don't have any clear projects to work on, I get bored. When I get bored the clouds start rolling into my head and depression strikes. I have to watch out for this. I know this. I'm home. Trying to get stuff started. But I'm bored. This is one of the downfalls to traveling so much. I have to temper the storm when the boat is not moving.
