Birhthday Bash
Mood:
 party time!
Now Playing: Happy Birthday, Mr. President-Marilyn Monroe
Topic: Ducks in a Row
Hi Kids, First order of business today is a SHOUT OUT to the corner at "Ricardo's Ranchera". I am writing to say "Feliz Compleanos" to my very first BLOGGEE and man who keeps me in check-so Happy Birthday, Rick-Since I know that you are reading this while you are still groggy and bleary eyed (kinda like I am now b4 bed!) it may not sink in right away! I do hope, however that you realize that you are one of the people that is important to me in my day, and it is partly your fault that I keep writing this goofy stuff down where EVERYONE can read it!! (Thanks?) Actually I am writing this on the Eve of Rick's birthday, which happens to be Ericka's birthday (one of the other inhabitants of the Fajita Family Tree-and mother of one of my "star-children") On the other side of his moment in the spotlight is the April Fool's birthdate of my dear friend and personal prognosticator, Michelle AS WELL AS the birthdate of my bestest Gal Pal Gina's daughter Brooke!!! Not to mention that this would be about the time of year that I would have been concieved,(TMI?) and is the old New Year...It all rolls into ONE... Okay, I gotta get outta here. I write this at the very end of my day when I am pretty much finished with business for the day and I can wander the more meandering path to a point (or not...)I release it to the universe for amusement puposes only. Please watch your step as you exit the ride, and Come Again Soon.

Now Playing: Krakatoa- The B-52's
Topic: Time is Relative
Nova tonite was about the science behind the tsunami that hit Sumatra, and way beyond, last December. They have registered a shift of 2cm in the earth's orbit that has caused a wobble in our rotation. The force of the upheaval from the 9.0(+)earthquake and ensuing tsunami waves has also shortened our day by speeding the rotation up. They didn't mention HOW Much shorter the day has become (Probably tenths of seconds.) I suspect that I will NOT be able to use it as an excuse the next time I am struggling to slip past the border guards at "Tiny Tijuana" before they realize that I have hit the snooze alarm one too many times that morning. This gives me a lot to wonder about. How often do these shifts occur anyway. I know that the TRUE magnetic north wanders from season to season, and year to year. I understand that the ozone layer is thin at the poles and that it too fluctuates. What is the normal spin and trajectory of the Earth. Does this shift affect the force of gravity? Can it help us weigh less? If we all get really fat can we weigh the Earth down, slow it's orbit, and get longer days so that we can fit everything in? If we were all really fat, could we fit everything in? Would we have the energy? Would we even want to bother? (do you see how this gets out of hand RIGHT QUICK!) There's those "cosmic comedians" at it again. (you'll get used to them-sort of) This kind of thinking is typical of the Sagitarrius moon phase that we are entering. (This is the moon sign that I was born under!) It is the moon of the philosopher, the traveler and the student. It is the wanderlust moon. For the next couple of days ask yourself the quetions you would most like answered. Then try your best to answer the most important one. (Like why do I always push the deadline?)-we'll cover that tomorrow!

Now Playing: Hell In a Bucket-Grateful Dead
Topic: Blasphemy!
Blah-blah-BLOGGETY-Blah. Been bad on the BLOG with the Pope-piouty Punchinness, running with scissors, livin' on the edge. I just don't know when to STOP. I expect to be wading through the angry mob soon enough but at the moment I believe they are keeping themselves busy down in Florida. Nuff Said. When I was in high school in Ohio, I had a friend who's father called me "Flashback" because he said that I was so odd that I must be an acid flashback of my past life !! (Who's the odd one? Where'd he come up with a theory like that?) All of a sudden, about the time I was turning 30 I figured out that he was probably right!!! I'm thinking of an Easter about a decade or so ago, where I figured out that the universe had quite a sense of humor and that the "fickle finger of fate" was pointing at ME!!! There were some Grateful Dead Spring tour dates that were convenient for me to meet up with my bestest, and far away friend. It just so happened that the shows fell on the Easter weekend where Good Friday also happened to be April Fool's Day and I entered into a whole new level of Tomfoolery!!! Or as the song goes-"the bus came by, and I got on, that's when it all began..." This Friday will be April Fool's Day this year. I have a lot of foolishness to celebrate!!!

Easter Sunday

Now Playing: The Sound of Silence-Simon & Garfunkel
Topic: PTL
Well, should we just get on with the proceedings and get the poop on the Pope out of the way? Yes, kids, it appears that Paul the Polish Pope had every intention of uttering an eloquent Easter Papal Prayer to the Pilgrams and Pious who populated the square of St. Peters. He opened his mouth to find that his voice was not there. Again, he tried, but to no avail. The cat had got his tongue, the Frog was lodged in his throat. The Pope had lost his peep. A look of almost surprise took over his face, and again, he uttered nary a whisper. This from a man who only last year said Happy Easter in something crazy like 60 or so languages. I think this year is the year we witnessed the power of silence. Funny-there's an awful lot of talk about it! Now for something completely different...I just wanted to make note of the anniversary of the day that I arrived here in the Emerald City. Damaged pink car, 5x8 U-haul, $500 money order, no place to stay, no job, no friends, and an Iguana named Blue Note. Things have thankfully changed for the better in the past 7 years! I am Grateful.

Now Playing: Here Comes Peter Cottontail-sung by children
Topic: Peeps
The news showed the Pope in his "private chapel" praying on Good Friday. Preparing for the Easter Service. He has been resting for months for the big event. Today he was briefly upstaged by a man on the dome of the Vatican trying to get help for the world's poorest. I think there are better ways of getting your point across, however it was quite a P.R. stunt!! Tomorrow the question will finally be answered-Will we hear a peep out of the Pope? Will the Pope eat a peep? Will we get to peep at the Pope? Will the Papal Vocal Proxy be present in case of the Pope's possible prayer-us interupt-us? Tune in tomorrow, Easter Sunday, the day that gives Catholicism the raison d'etre. Don't forget to check your candy for sharp objects!! And brush after every meal.

Now Playing: Road To Nowhere-Talking Heads
Topic: putter, putter
Mercury, the planet of communication and travel is retrograde right now. That means, as you watch it's course, it will move forward in the night sky, then for a period of three weeks or so, it "moves backwards". All planets do this at different points in the year. Mercury goes forward four times and "backwards" three in a year. Astrologers say that when Mercury is retrograde there are more communication difficulties, computer glitches, mechanical challenges, and delays in travel plans. When Mercury is retrograde it gives us a chance to slow down and think about our next chance to make progress. Coincidently, a seven level Labrynth goes forward four times and backwards three, just like the annual course of Mercury. They say that when you draw a seven level labrynth it helps to connect the two hemispheres of the brain. I like to think of the Mercury Retrograde time as the left brain development time. The part that makes you dreamy and not so to the point. (is that obvious by this explanation?) I was definately feeling it today! I did a whole lot of busy work, a whole lot of driving kids around, had a meeting cancelled (but wasn't told before I drove over there!) I got some painting done on my logo but I want to re-do it because the color isn't quite what I had in mind (the good thing is RE-doing things in Merc. Retro is par for the course) I got some snaps for my tarps, but I still have to hem at least 15 more tabs before I can call that finished. I'm not sure I got enough snaps. (beats the hell out of sewing velcro!) Just a whole lot of loose ends, many of which need to be tied up a week from tomorrow. I'd better rest up. Goodnite!

Now Playing: Changes-David Bowie
Topic: Constant Change
Feels like I could spend every day just working on Mandalas. I am really surprised at the amount of energy that I put into this work and the amount of energy it gives back to me to keep going forward. I find working on these almost tireless. The things that wear me out are the things that stop me from creating things for my Studio.(you know what they are!) Today is the eve of the Full Moon in Libra. Since the sun is in Aries, the Thirteen Moon Calender calls it the Moon of Budding Trees. We return to a balance of body. We develop and enrich the seeds that were planted at the Earth Renewal Moon, and we start to think about the growing season ahead of us. As for me, I know that I have been germinating my Saturday Market seeds for quite some time. While I still have plenty of work cut out for me, I also have the satisfaction of knowing that this is what I do, and no matter what, I am moving forward. There are a couple of new fotos added to my album. It makes me feel like I am actually getting things done...Thanks for your support!!!

Topic: Reprieve
I was scheduled this week at the Toasty Tostada for tomorrow night when I have my last Feasability class. I have been working more than I want to for quite some time and I said something about it, and guess what-It got covered. I really appreciate that I work with people that allow me to pursue my creative career, (which is probably the biggest reason that I stick it out!) Even if I don't always feel like doling out the dinner and drinks. (I end up doing that for my boys at home anyway!) I have been asking myself a lot of questions trying to figure out what I want to accomplish. Is World Peace such a foreign concept? Can the blissful inherit the earth? If you had a choice would this be your reality? Have you ever heard someone else's thought? Does the feel of my touch give you fright? If you could, would you? What was the last dream you can remember? What is your Quest? Why am I still Rambling?... Talk at ya later!!! Buh-bye.

Now Playing: Word Up-Korn
Topic: Wor'd Up
It's actually kind of early for me to be writing. Ordinarily at this point in the day I have taken two kids to school, taken a shower and got ready to go to the Enchilada Emporium. It's Spring Break. I am waiting for my kids to come home from their dad's. I have to work tonight, and I am trying not to get the illness people have been passing around all season. I went to bed with the beginnings of a sore throat, I woke up feeling ok, but I have been making deals with my subconscious. Lot's of ginger, green tea, water and rest, and it won't make me ill. All physical illness is a form of mental illness. It's just a way of my body telling me to SLOW DOWN !! I got far enough on the sides of my booth that I could take it out of my living room and just work on sewing the tabs. I truly appreciate the space! The planet Venus is in the house of Aries. Venus rules Taurus and Libra. The full moon is going to be in Libra on Friday the 25th. These aspects highlight beauty, and art. Libra is the sign of partnerships and these areas will be highlighted by the light of Luna. This makes us far more interested in going directly for what we want.

It's 11 days until Saturday Market. I still have a lot of sewing to do on my booth and I am pretty wiped out. I made a little more progress, getting the outline of the logo painted on the side of the booth. The color will be the easy part. I already have it mapped out in my head. I had a meeting with my advisor on Project Grow and I got a printout of the classes and workshops that I have participated in so far. I also got a first quarter statement which has me as a "start-up business" (phase one-idea/phase 2 is start up.)and in a couple of weeks when Saturday Market opens, I will officially become an EXISTING business (phase 3!). I guess it doesn't matter that with what I am earning from it right now I would be EXISTING on RAMEN NOODLES!!! (Fortunately I get fed for free at the Tortilla-Mart!-The catch is I have to eat and run). I hope the Rich and Famous step isn't that far away! The topic for the next blog entry is how many people need to be reading your blog for you to qualify for cultural icon status. Think about your answer carefully, there is a quiz.
