out of the dumpster and into the daylight

Everyone should have a blog! Seriously. It is so nice to be able to say 'I feel like shit' and get a response. The act of revealing my true feelings was liberating in itself.  It was great to just confess to my downer, rather than slapping on a coat of white paint and an exaggerated …

Pulp Fiction

Do you ever feel like you are about to combust? If you would like to be comforted by someone else’s downer, read on. If you would like to be cheered and bolstered, please click on one of the other links to the right of the Wonderlust blogpage. Or maybe my downer will cheer and bolster …

adventures in wonderland : the barista, the music-maker and us!

It was a Sunday afternoon in Luzern when the epiphany rolled into the living room. I had been looking at Facebook. It was just a quick session (which is the best kind I think) - I read a few comments people had written in response to some photos I'd posted and I replied to them …

no higher than your heart

By now some of you are aware of 'The Roller-blading Incident'  - yes, the one where I thought I could roller-blade, again. I mean, who the hell can't roller-blade? It looks so easy when co-ordinated people do it. It's not that I can't roller-blade at all - but I am just not at the level …

NO CATS WERE KILLED IN THE MAKING OF THAT BLOG POST

Oh MY!! M has pointed out that it seemed like I killed my cats. NO CATS WERE KILLED! It was my dark side but it wasn't that dark. I was just trying to say that kids can be cruel, you know? I have now updated the post but can't take back the emails. Please don't …

I died a thousand times tonight

 Embrace your dark side This is what I read on FB the other day. Embrace my dark side? WTF?! It certainly sounds pretty kinky I must admit - but what if my dark side has less to do with a deep voice and a black cape and more to do with getting mad at a …

rolling with the good times

Oh man, right now I am feeling so grateful to have this blog. Isn't the internet grand? Such a time-waster but also such an enabler. I am feeling so grateful to all of you who responded to my last post about announcing I am a writer and grateful to anyone, in fact, who has ever …

The Real Deal (nude scenes and strong language)

Last week I turned pro. Did you know? You might have missed it if you are not on Linked In. I listed myself as a writer and it felt a bit sticky. Even now I’m cringing on the inside. But I did it. I don’t know what will come of this besides daily emails inviting …

the winds of change

Children of Mother Earth, listen up!  I watched this video the other day and I felt so sad. It is okay to feel sad though, I let myself - I didn't feel angry I just felt hopeless. I love animals. I love trees. I love flowers and green living things. I love water. I love …

tiny little things

I don't know the history of much but I know my history. Once, Charlemagne and Persephone meant something to me. They were great stories but they didn't stick. I want to know the stories of the world - I am interested - I take refresher courses called bike tours and audio guides. But then they …
