Thanks for the AG... somehow a voretx feels appropriate... Rivers and Tides is the film... I think you'd like it...

Just the one. She's 18 and just moved to Seattle with a roommate she's known sinc preschool days. already getting her poems published in the small press. She makes me very proud, just by being herself. but when she was six, we spent all day together most days, and at that age a kid can teach you many things.
We have a few peregrines around here, chasing pigeons. The last eagles I've seen were up toward Reno. Two big goldens standing on the roadside like ushers. And a bald sitting in a tree along the Truckee river.
but no pileateds. Some small woodpeckers once in a while, and the crows.

Me too.

You consistently blow me away...
Now I'm sure you'll like the film...

What a great testimonial to your child. Happy birthday, little one!

yesterday was so lovely, but then again everyday in Portland is. and sadly I missed mt. st. helen, I heard it was pretty nifty to see.

i like your writing

and i answered all the questions in my journal...i must say, yours was one of the better ones.

i had no idea you were a head you just got entrenched in my cool book

Watch out.. that volcano's going to blow!

These days, I know how it feels...

A burning, churning underground...

Later...

How about "I'll Be Your Lava Tonight?"

I went down down down as the flames crept higher...

I'm late.. must go .. bye

Happy Birthday Little one! Maybe someday you can meet my son, he's about 4 months older than you (nov. 8th)

Tell your mom she writes well - I'm hoping she's gonna write "A year and a Day, my time with the suicide girls" and it'll be all her cool journal entries and group osts and other thoughts about her time in the world and her time on SG .

That is so beautiful! BTW, the only way to eat greens is when they have a pig foot or two thrown in for good measure!

I think teaching at university level would be better than at any other; the people are mature, and actually there/want to learn. But, I don't have any intention of teaching whatsoever, so, eh.

I'd like to go to the bars and get drunk.. But I'm not old enough yet. That's where fake ID comes in, right? Anyway, if I do get into one, I doubt any around here would have that Irish spirit to it. My town sucks like that. I wish Irish people would invite me to their parties that day, though. That'd be fun!

Sleep..Ugh..sleep.

Wow! I really am right about you. I stand in awe of your wisdom and graciousness. I wish I could be that kind of mom to my 6 year old. You know, the little red head who worships the ground I walk on? The little baby who was born 3 months early and who I prayed for every day in the 52 days he was in the NICU? I promised then that I would never, ever take him for granted. He has taught me more about tenacity than anyone else I have ever known. And about forgiveness. And about the power of positive thinking.

Thank you, my friend ... I'm going to hug my little boy now!

Tell your child I said Happy Birthday!

What a wonderful tribute to your child! Love your website. I learned more than I'd ever thought possible about slug sex

Very,very Nice

I remember when I was pregnant with my first one, I felt so incredibly sexy! I was working in an upscale jewelry store at the time, and every time a male customer came in - I would blush. I secretly thought they could pick up the sensual/sexual vibes that seemed to be radiating out from my inner core! And that they wanted me!!! Wow! I can't believe I ever felt that, well, confidant.......

You are too!

Beautiful.

And you say you have nothing to say?

You're wonderful, and thank you.

Looks like your little plan backfired, huh?
