me kissing you: April 2012
http://mekissingyou.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
A little sugar makes the whole world sweeter. Sunday, April 29, 2012. This is Jay Mays. I'd met her before, too. She's active in the Houston LGBT community and is a performer as well as an activist. One project that she's been very involved in is called The Gender Book. It's a brief educational book intended as a primer for exploring all the ways gender is expressed. It's not a simple binary of boy and girl, no matter what some people might try to tell you. Also: I love how our shirts match.). Meet Karen...

A little sugar makes the whole world sweeter. Monday, May 21, 2012. This is the fabulous Jane Weiner. She is the president and CEO of the fabulous Hope Stone Inc. There's a lot of fabulosity swirling around her. Oh, and I just noticed that Jane is my 50th kiss! Huh You'd think there'd be a prize to go with that, but I guess not. Meet Amy Llanes. I just did. She's another dancer/choreographer. I know, I know. Amy is the artistic director of Rednerrus Feil Dance Company. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). As it w...

http://mekissingyou.blogspot.com/2012/10/me-kissing-deborah.html
A little sugar makes the whole world sweeter. Thursday, October 11, 2012. I'm kissing Deborah Hay! I first met Deborah over a decade ago while I was living in Austin, which is also where Deborah has lived for many years now. I took a workshop with her that she called "Dancing and Writing Together.". I have to be candid here. I sort of. Without going into details, I sort of remember maybe being a little bit of a jerk in those workshops, especially the first go-round. So it's a joy to be able to spend this...

me kissing you: November 2012

A little sugar makes the whole world sweeter. Wednesday, November 28, 2012. Here is me kissing Audell Shelburne. He's a poet. Speaking of Blue Rock, Audell is another friend who was published in this year's volume, VOX. I think you should go buy a copy. Because I want you to read work by my friends as well as my own work, but as I've been reading through the volume this week and I have to say- -we're all in really good company. I love that. Makes me feel almost famous. Sunday, November 25, 2012. After th...

A little sugar makes the whole world sweeter. Saturday, January 28, 2012. Me kissing Lady Hystereo. Jennifer Lady Hystereo Rodriguez was a coworker at a former job. She's still in retail and I sometimes drop in on her and see what's up. Today, she got some sugar. When Jennifer isn't selling stuff, she's making music. She's even signed to an independent record label in England under the name Hystereo Death. Saturday, January 21, 2012. She's in the Frame Dance company and so was performing tonight. Other t...

A little sugar makes the whole world sweeter. Friday, June 15, 2012. This is the last of the SWTSU theater kisses. I'm so very delighted to have this one. So the organizers of the reunion are on the stage at Cheatham Street Warehouse, making announcements and one of them said, "And over here we are excited to have with us Nicci Harrison." This made me sit up and take notice. Nicci Harrison is here? Us She loved us. And after all that? Still at the SWTSU Theater Department reunion . . . This is Sheila Har...

A little sugar makes the whole world sweeter. Wednesday, November 28, 2012. This is another kiss from the Blue Rock Review soiree this past weekend. This is Beth Melles, who I met there. She came with Audell (coming up next) and through him had seen my blog and knew before I finished asking what I was about to ask. I love that. Makes me feel almost famous. But I have to admit that this another one of those situations where I don't have much to say because I don't know my kissee well enough to tell stories.

me kissing you: March 2012

A little sugar makes the whole world sweeter. Wednesday, March 14, 2012. Adia Major is a former co-worker. She recently took another position and I miss her quite a lot. When I started my current job, Adia was the one that I had that immediate vibe about, that "this will be my work buddy" vibe. And so she was. Until she abandoned me at the end of last year. But it's okay. It's a good move for her. "Don't worry about me," I say, "I'll be fine.". Long story short, she'd been in a terrible auto accident and...

A little sugar makes the whole world sweeter. Monday, July 9, 2012. Here's another theater person from my weekend with the Landing Theatre Company. This is Dr. Martine Kei Green-Rogers. She's a dramaturg and teacher and she moderated all the talk-backs after the play readings. Dang, she was fun. Lively and smart with a format for talk-backs that I'm totally stealing if/when I conduct one. I've already told her this. It's brilliant in it's simplicity. And as you can see, I kissed her. So 2011 saw me deali...
