Important stuff and trivia too

Please go to this place to support Kansas Sebastian and his husband (aka Team Greg and Michael, team number 613). They need to raise funds to be able to participate in the AIDS Life Cycle event; he explains it all there. It’s the OD Cares entry now, and I’m sorry if you’ve seen it over there and are thinking “Sheesh, ME, we know!” but I just think what they’re doing is so nifty that I want to expand exposure to this great stuff to reach, perhaps, some who don’t read OD Cares.

I am here on a wing and a prayer. As long as I am not attempting to have a chatter with anyone, and go through some rather interesting breathless contortions for a while, my connection stays. But there’s just no trusting it to stay up for any amount of time. My husband chatted with a guy from our cable company who was here trying to drum up business yesterday, and it seems as though he can “get it for us wholesale” or perhaps free (a new power cable, that is).

Night, continued in the morning

The night bathes me in a ritual blessing
cool air anoints me heading toward
whatever awaits me over the threshold to dreams

Looking today at rainbows and ribbons
so much beauty in claiming
the right to love as our souls do

I know people who have made love
to the sun and to rainbows
so I climb toward such possibilities

And my wings find flight
on the wind of wishes and prayers
the wondrous strength of what has always been called

True love
