Great Lake Yoga Mama : Let's Bring Death Back to Life
http://greatlakeyogamama.blogspot.com/2015/02/lets-bring-death-back-to-life.html
Great Lake Yoga Mama. Purposeful Living, Yoga and Health. Wednesday, February 11, 2015. Let's Bring Death Back to Life. I spent last week at the bedside of my aunt, who was dying after a long illness in the hospital. During my childhood, she was one of my primary caregivers; the woman who made my bologna and mustard sandwiches, who watched me play in the sandbox, the one who took me to get my ear's pierced for the first time. In short, she was a special person to me. Fortunately, there are things we can ...

Today’s beautiful truth. Back from the dead →. February 14, 2015. Hello friends. Linking you up this morning to all the things on the internet I’ve loved lately. Food first: I’ve made this vegan curry. Two weeks in a row now. It makes quite a bit, so if you’re eating just for one, it’ll last you a week of lunches. (Spice-lovers like me will need extra unorthodox squirts of Sriracha.). Who knew Finnish people were so good at being a little more peaceful. Some lush, poignant writing from. The broken system...

Hotel – rotwork
https://rotwork.wordpress.com/2015/08/14/hotel
Towards monasticism. towards extinction. For Old Man Thunder. August 14, 2015. Right now, I’m in a hotel room in southern Oregon. This is actually the first hotel room I’ve ever had to myself– this is because it’s a Motel 6 and my uncle paid for the room because I just spent the past 8 hours doing a lot of really hard, intense helping of sorts for a family member, and there’s more to do tomorrow. Anyways, this is the first hotel room I’ve ever had to myself, and the first I will sleep in by myself. Ember...

Candy-Coated Razor Blades: October 2014
http://www.candycoatedrazor.com/2014_10_12_archive.html
Saturday, October 18, 2014. See No Evil, Have No Fun. Jen and Sylvia Soska. WHAT HAVE YOU DONE! I say all halfheartedly because, believe it or not, I liked their latest piece of horror fluff, See No Evil 2. Not to tell you too much about the movie, 'cause it's all new and shit, picture it. A birthday party in a morgue with a recently "deceased" serial killer with religious mommy issues. And that's all you need to know for now. It's rectangular and under a sheet in a morgue. I wonder what it could be?

Candy-Coated Razor Blades: Keep 'Em Laughing As You Go...
http://www.candycoatedrazor.com/2013/07/keep-em-laughing-as-you-go.html
Wednesday, July 3, 2013. Keep 'Em Laughing As You Go. Schadenfreude has a long and hilarious history. As long as comedy has been around, "black comedy" has been around. In fact, I'm pretty sure that comedy started the minute the first caveman slipped on a carelessly tossed Mammoth knuckle and fell over a cliff. Because we find things funny that shouldn't be funny but they're funny because they aren't happening to US. It's a defense mechanism. Jim Jones jokes are always appreciated. Now, I'm not talking a...

Jobs I’ve Done. Things I Wanna Do. Places I Have Been. Do you not like to travel, or just plain won’t leave the country? Would you like someone to be your travel eyes and ears? Do your reconnaissance, anywhere in the world? You’ve seen it on Google maps, but you’re just not sure? It’s fear vs. desire. Here are just a few examples. Of what I’m talking about:. Your grandfather used to live in Prague, and you’d like to see detailed photos of his house and the area of town he lived. You need a secret shopper.

What hasn’t changed all that much? – Thom’s World
http://thomwise.com/what-hasnt-changed-all-that-much
Jobs I’ve Done. Things I Wanna Do. Places I Have Been. What hasn’t changed all that much? April 22, 2015. I was thinking the other day: What hasn’t changed all that much? You know, what are the things that seem unchanged by time, or circumstances, or politics, or stupidity? Here’s a few of the things I could come up with:. Flowers, and flower arranging. Can a robot EVER do that for us? Prayer and meditation. There’s just no substitute for it, if you believe in that sort of thing. Maybe this is just a per...

Candy-Coated Razor Blades: Put the Fucking Shovel Away
http://www.candycoatedrazor.com/2015/03/put-fucking-shovel-away.html
Saturday, March 28, 2015. Put the Fucking Shovel Away. For months, now, I've been hearing about the fanTAStic "mockumentary" by Adam Green, director of the cult favorites Hatchet. Both of which are friggin' awesome, by the name of Digging Up the Marrow. It's AMAZING," they said. "You'll LOVE it," they said. "It will change the way you view the world," they said. No, really, they actually said that. Telling Adam Green and his crew to shut up and turn the lights off. So, yeah. 90 minutes of the movie a...
