Deb's Africa Trip 2009
Jacked up musings, powered by a bucket of iced coffee and chronic insomnia. (sleep is for the weak)
A few candid snaps from my recent performance at the Northampton Senior Center's "Pot O' Luck" luncheon. I went from table to table doing close-up magic during lunch followed by a 20-mintue stage performance.
Pancakes Barbara will be ending her reign as Miss Sobriety this Saturday after dazzling the crowd with a farewell performance. Here's a few shots of Michael at a recent fitting in a breathtaking gown created for the event.
It's been three years since I moved from New York to Haydenville. No regrets -- I love love love my home here and life is good. However, I recently stumbled across the ad I created when I was looking to sublet my NYC apartment and I remembered how much I enjoyed that wacky little space.
Sarah Palin's farcical debate performance lowered the standards for both female candidates and US political discourse
Say it ain't so, Joe, there you go again pointing backwards again. You preferenced [sic] your whole comment with the Bush administration. Now doggone it, let's look ahead and tell Americans what we have to plan to do for them in the future. You mentioned education, and I'm glad you did. I know education you are passionate about with your wife being a teacher for 30 years, and god bless her. Her reward is in heaven, right? ... My brother, who I think is the best schoolteacher in the year, and here's a shout-out to all those third graders at Gladys Wood Elementary School, you get extra credit for watching the debate.

I Go Among Trees and Sit Still
I go among trees and sit still.
All my stirring becomes quiet
Around me like circles on water.
Then what I am afraid of comes.
I live for a while in its sight.
What I fear in it leaves it,
And the fear of it leaves me.
It sings, and I hear its song.
