I've been tagged.

So, Stacy Julian tagged me.

Here ya' go:

Four jobs you’ve had in your life:

1. Burro Wrangler at Green Oak Ranch. This was a horsemanship camp for inner-city kids - I ran the burro program and taught hundreds of little kids how to ride. I adore burros and someday hope to have property so I can own one of my own.
2. Counter girl and cook at Alice's Drive In - my highschool job. The best burgers in Astoria, hands down.
3. Horsemanship Program Coordinator - Jasper Mountain Center. Here, I taught severely abused kids the joys of horses - from riding to mucking stalls.
4. Fine Jewelry Specialist at Mervyn's. I know, Fine Jewelry and Mervyns is a bit of an oxymoron.

Four movies you would watch over and over:

1. What's Up Doc with Barbra Streisand and Ryan O'Neill
2. Gone With The Wind
3. The Sound of Music
4. Return to Me

Four places you have lived:

1. Astoria, Oregon
2. Eugene, Oregon
3. San Jose, California
4. Spokane, Washington

Four TV shows you love to watch:

1. American Idol, when it's on.
2. Grey's Anatomy
3. Talk Soup
4. What Not to Wear

Four places you have been on vacation:

1. Shongaloo, Louisianna - population 28.
2. Colorado Springs, Colorado
3. Paris, France
4. Manzanita, Oregon - every summer

Four websites you visit daily:

1. The Pub at Two Peas in a Bucket
2. KellyWell
3. The Edge of Reason
4. My blog

Four of your favorite foods:

1. A great green salad with nuts and craisins and feta cheese
2. Crepes au chocolate
3. Raspberry Oat Bars from Rocket bakery
4. Grilled Salmon

Four places you would rather be right now:

1. In my studio working on my art journal.
2. Out for coffee with my oldest friend, Corey.
3. On a girls weekend with my Mom.
4. On a date with Asia.
(But really I'm totally content to be sitting here with my laptop, listening to S. read to E., and with the dog at my feet... home is always my favorite place to be.)

Four bloggers you are tagging:

I'll just say my brothers, Steve and Ken. Steve, because his site has been down for a couple of days and he doesn't update it often enough, and Ken, because I've never seen him be tagged. He's kind of an insulated blogger, I think.


So there you have it. I'm officially not it anymore.

  1. Uh, that last one said 4 (four) bloggers not two. I'm afraid you're still it.

  2. Yea, I know. All the other people who come to my blog regularly have probably already been tagged with this one, or they don't respond well to tagging.

    So I'm done with two. It's my blog and I say so.

Good morning, peeps. It's Friday. There's frost outside this morning. *FROST!* This week has been ridiculously chilly. I'm having mixed feelings about blogging lately. Mostly because I feel like all I've been doing is whine about being tired. Or overwhelmed. And because comments are lacking. And because I can't seem to think about anything to write about except Tejan. And because some of the thoughts I'm having are too private for the blog - or too repetitive. Or too unformed to turn into actual words you all could understand. So I'm struggling a bit. And yet, I'm committed to documenting the process I'm in. So I'll keep writing when the words come. And when they don't, like this morning, when I looked at that intimidating blinking cursor and my mind went blank and I started to break out in a cold sweat and began by talking about the weather... well, then, I'll just gracefully (or not so gracefully) back out of the room... tail between m...

Missoula Children's Theater

Last week Savannah and Ethan were both cast in their school's Missoula Children's Theater production of Red Riding Hood. Savannah was cast as Mother Hood and the Grandmother, and Ethan was Robin Hood - the Hood family's cousin from England. After five days of intense rehearsing, (four and a half hours every day after school) they were ready for two shows on Saturday afternoon. It was so fun for them. And fun for me, as I was one of two parent volunteers with the privilege of being at every rehearsal. I come from my own childhood experience of many opportunities with theater and musicals, so watching them experience the thrill of performing was awesome. It was an amazing week. I'm so glad they had the chance to do it. I loved that instead of having to commit to weeks and weeks of rehearsals, they just had to do this one really intense week. A full scale musical production without a month of rehearsing and I didn't have to sew any costumes! That's my kind of pla...
