brave new grrrl: June 2011
http://bravenewgrrl.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
And the point is to live everything. Monday, June 20, 2011. I constantly crave laughter. And improv has become my favorite fix. I don't know much of the history or the terminology. But from years of watching improv and listening to my friends discuss it I've developed a general understanding of it. I can identify what I like and don't like, and I have a vague sense of what makes for good improv and bad. I've gleaned a handful of wisdom nuggets that apply not only to improv but to life:. To be a good midw...

brave new grrrl: on being a doormat
http://bravenewgrrl.blogspot.com/2013/06/the-golden-rule-part-deux.html
And the point is to live everything. Tuesday, June 11, 2013. On being a doormat. What if rules #1 and #2, as outlined above, had equal weight? What if we demanded to be treated with the compassion, respect, kindness, and fairness with which we strive to treat others? What if being shitty to ourselves were as looked-down-upon as being shitty to others? And what if allowing others to treat us badly were as unacceptable as treating others badly? Actually perpetrating that behavior? The title is a little emb...

But, all things considered, he’s still a funny dude and I love when he delivers the TRUTH with a side of LAUGHS. Leave a Comment ». Feed for comments on this post. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

brave new grrrl: August 2013
http://bravenewgrrl.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
And the point is to live everything. Saturday, August 24, 2013. In digging through some old files on my laptop today, I found the following assignment that I wrote in my nursing program in May of 2008. I was wrapping up the pre-RN part of my program, after which I would sit for the NCLEX - the national exam to become a registered nurse - and then simultaneously start working as an RN and start taking the graduate -level classes to become a nurse-midwife. Who Do I Want To Be In This Profession? Friend, I ...

January 20, 2009. 8212; blogsdon @ 9:39 am. Inauguration day. Seems like a good day to start up the blog again. For some reason I thought this Inauguration was going to be the largest gathering of people throughout human history, but really its just the largest gathering of people in the US. What are some other large gatherings? Mostly religious pilgrimages in India. Leave a Comment ». Feed for comments on this post. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Enter your comment here.

brave new grrrl: July 2014
http://bravenewgrrl.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
And the point is to live everything. Tuesday, July 15, 2014. Historically speaking, I am a quitter. Not in a noble, commendable, "good for YOU! Kind of way. Not as in quitting smoking, or drinking, or calling 900 numbers while betting on exploited turtles at the track. Tried briefly; quit. I took honors and AP-level classes all throughout high school, but my junior year floundered so badly through precalculus and and physics that my senior year I gave up on math and science altogether. In college...At th...

brave new grrrl: You Have to Protect Yourself From Sadness
http://bravenewgrrl.blogspot.com/2013/06/you-have-to-protect-yourself-from.html
And the point is to live everything. Tuesday, June 25, 2013. You Have to Protect Yourself From Sadness. From The English Patient. Thirteen years ago today - June 25th - I hit rock bottom. How could I have been out reading in the sunshine on Mac Field when he was inside trying to overdose? He wound up being okay. But for me, I think, that day was the tipping point: that was the day when I kind of stopped being okay. I thought. What if I feel this bad every day for the rest of my life? For the people I've ...
