Finding Wiz: October 2014
http://findingwiz.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Wednesday, October 1, 2014. What a stupid address. Because everything and nothing always changes, and we know that "always" and "never" is usually a lie. I walked to dinner tonight. The Fitbit demands these kinds of sacrifices, and it's no sacrifice when it's a temperate autumn evening and your destination is over the ridge, at a campus restaurant. So when I wonder how I got so stuck, if you could gently remind me that I live not only in the town where I went to college, but the town where I was born?

Finding Wiz: Yoga Challenge, because I am THRIFTY, and my ham strings are tight.
http://findingwiz.blogspot.com/2015/06/yoga-challenge-because-i-am-thrifty-and.html
Sunday, June 21, 2015. Yoga Challenge, because I am THRIFTY, and my ham strings are tight. The dance class schedule kind of slows down for me in the summer. Luckily, a local yoga studio offers a new student discount (unlimited drop-in classes for 2 weeks for $20! If I go twice, I've already gotten my money's worth. So yes, I accept this challenge. I shall om and namaste until the cat / cows come home, or two weeks is up, whichever comes first. And I've already gone four times! The overall intent is to ge...

Finding Wiz: June 2014
http://findingwiz.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 25, 2014. Life hacker has collected all the tools, done very little hacking. Have you tried tapping? The one perfect exercise, which according to some click-bait health site, is squats? Oh, everyone else is doing green juice and planks, silly me. Topiary cats are all the rage. Apple cider vinegar did kind of attract some clicks to this blog, for some (Dr. Oz tag! But it's so hard to focus on just one project! Book Still considering this one.). And that means something, right? Anna was abl...

oh so Po-Mo: June 2012

When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up." -C.S. Lewis. Tuesday, June 12, 2012. Flying is expensive and hard to book so close to departure time. And even though it gets you to your destination faster you can’t think how you will fill the hours until the plane takes off.

oh so Po-Mo: April 2012
http://peregringa.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up." -C.S. Lewis. Monday, April 23, 2012. Is this what you wanted? How am I doing? I mean, I danced for four years before I finally allowed myself to buy a pair of regulation tango shoes. I felt like I had to earn. After a private lesson with teachers I respect, I now think this is a big part of what's holding my dance back. The next frontier of learning for me is to dance without apolog...

oh so Po-Mo: July 2013
http://peregringa.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up." -C.S. Lewis. Thursday, July 25, 2013. Why I hate it when you say "it's always the leader's fault". And the piano answers that. But without derailing the intentions of my partner - and for the stillness of mind that awakens me to the spontaneous possibility of each moment, never presuming to know what my partner will ask of me, but trusting that it will move me through and through.

When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up." -C.S. Lewis. Friday, August 29, 2014. Shining my shoes for the fat lady. I subbed for Walt a few times when he was in a cast—remember when he was in that cast? 8211;J.D. Salinger, Franny and Zooey. Like many young and bookish people suffering from a sort of diffuse angst, I read Catcher in the Rye. It wasn’t until some years later that I read Franny and Zooey. Can and will.”. Century; i...

oh so Po-Mo: brains think the darndest things
http://peregringa.blogspot.com/2012/01/brains-think-darndest-things.html
When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up." -C.S. Lewis. Sunday, January 29, 2012. Brains think the darndest things. I have heard it said (and debunked and said some more) that we humans only use some 10% of our brains. Have you ever had one of those moments when you suddenly, unexpectedly became aware of your brain and all the things it does when you're not. Wearing glasses since the last time I had seen them. This situation...
