More old, this time from MySpace... new updates to come...
March 3, 2009 - Tuesday
Where to blog...
Current mood: accomplished
MySpace, Facebook, DeviantArt, LiveJournal- too many choices.
As we prepare our house for our baby, I seem to be reaching out a bit more on Facebook, at least with status updates. I have so much I do want to talk about, not just baby-this or baby-that, but my goals, things I still want to do, like getting my Masters degree, then maybe teaching at the college level (probably community college to start); writing articles, poems, stories, novels, anything; running for president- okay, so some things are easier than others. Right now I just want to get this house cleaned and feel like I have space- I've already selected about 4 bags/boxes of books to get rid of, about as many magazines- it's a real accomplishment for me. (If you know me, you know how difficult it is for me to part with literature, of any sort.)
Well, off to work soon. I'll have to think more about which site gets which parts of me.

Come Little Children...
I truly miss working with children. Teenagers just are not the same- both in good and not so good ways.
On the other hand, I've had a little bit of overload with babies and baby showers and christenings lately. Just another opportunity to remind me that I'm getting older.
Literally.
The candles are ready to be lit, I just prefer them as torches, tapers, tea lights- not the little ones. ;)
Oh, I like the age I'll be tomorrow. I think it's a nice number.
There's more to all of this, but I need to think some more- and eat dinner, if I can get past the first bite.
Lots of old, not so much new...
Okay, so I just posted a few old poems. I really need to work on new ones, but it's been a bit difficult lately. I wrote almost a whole steno pad-worth last fall, but they are transitional, cynical, to raw still to share. That and they are difficult to type up properly. I tend to write all over the page, meandering here and there. I haven't written much since my new job- I've been feeling a bit numb, robotic. Perhaps I could write mythic-mechanical poems, but I haven't been inspired as such yet.
I'll post one more for tonight, then it's off to iron work-clothes. :P

Revisiting Old Articles
I wrote an article for 201mass.com in 2003 about Boskone 40 entitled "What Are Little Girls Made Of? Or Arts and Sciences Make the Muse":

Since so much has happened in just 5 years, I thought I would update it. I'd love to hear others' comments on the original first. Especially from the Class of 2006 (as mentioned in the article) and/or from other women, young and young-at-heart.
(Let me know if you need a link to the article I was responding to.)
Betraying a dream...
Well, as I'm not sure where to begin, I will post an old entry (March 24, 2004) from my kerrie's aerie journal & livejournal accounts, as it feels appropriate again lately...
******************************************************************
Have you ever felt that you were betraying all of your hopes and dreams?
I've left many of mine by the side of the path- not that I've been actually following a path. More like left the path by the side of the path and started wandering off, just meandering.
I've made so many plans, promises to myself and others. I've dreamed up ideas that just sit in a drawer- I always liked the idea of a junk drawer
