I’m listening to A Guy Named Joe by Coyote Grace on repeat right now. I got to see them live with Girlyman this week in Berkeley, and this song in particular is good at providing a bit of backbone when I need it. To say that Kyle/Casey and I had a bad day on Thursday…well, [...]

I know I’m gonna get a lot of accidental hits with this title, but it’s simply inescapable how much my life has become a soap opera. To be fair, most of the drama is internal, but that doesn’t make it any easier to take. I’ve been going to my therapist for 6 months now, and [...]

A few weekends ago I went to the Dyke March in San Francisco and found myself reacting very strongly to something that happened there. Before the march, while we were all gathering in the park, singers were performing on stage and the rest of us were all sitting together on the grass, enjoying the music [...]

I went to see my new therapist yesterday. She lives in Rockridge, one of my favorite parts of Berkeley and an area I know well from college, so I felt right at home when I arrived. She has a room in a old Victorian house, which is beautiful, but, sadly, lacks air conditioning…my peculiar chemistry [...]
Losing My Religion

I was born into a family without religion, which is to say that my family originally had too much religion and my parents decided to end the fighting it caused by getting rid of it entirely. In my grandparents’ era, both sides had split into bitter feuds over religion and the family was left fractured [...]

2009 was a very difficult year for me, and the issues I faced then are still dogging me now. I’m finding it really helps to write out, and post, my fears, frustrations, and hopes, but I’m wary of making it all public because of the small handful of readers who don’t have my best interests [...]

I remember seeing Fried Green Tomatoes for the first time in the early 90s. I can’t remember if it was at a theater, or on video, but I do remember falling in love. I had had a crush on Mary Stuart Masterson for just about ever, and she was her strong, beautiful, somewhat sullen self [...]

Every relationship is inherently dangerous. Every hug, every kiss, every promise brings us closer to another human being, forcing us to open up and let a little light in, exposing the needy, small, ugly bits we prefer to keep hidden away. A polyamorous relationship is even more dangerous, with prohibitions on wanting too much, and, [...]
