blissquest passes the torch to radaliciouseptember

so blissquest august 2010 was a rousing success. so much bliss in that one little month. this morning i decided that i'll be on a quest to define the word "rad" on a daily basis through september examples. am happy to hear suggestions for future words to define through tangible examples.

benign

my mom took me out to lunch today. i mentioned that i notice folks using the word "benign" a lot these days, as a descriptor of something harmless. she said that when she was pregnant with me, she noticed a lot more pregnant ladies than she ever had before. makes sense. perspective.

bliss

got back late last night from 8 solid days on maui, plus 2 solid travel days to and from. inspired by an old picture of me and my beloved big wheel bike, i decided to spend the month of august looking for daily moments of bliss. have been successful so far, and my heart feels lighter for the effort. i'm chronicling the daily moments of bliss on my facebook page. will likely make a digital story about them when august is over. so far, by day -

1) first post-tumorfest sand
2) a lovely and tasty bowl of tropical oatmeal

vulnerable ukuleleist

i'm famous. those of you following along by plane, can you see my ego from up there?

my local newspaper ran an article about moi today. the more expensive sunday paper? seems like a conspiracy to prevent me from buying many copies to mail to my friends all over the world. oh well. i'll just email them the link. saves on postage.

pssst, bucko. i think i did it! did the link right. thanks for the lesson.

please stand for the pledge of allegiance

when i got back to corvallis after 2 months in arizona hospitals, i was in a wheelchair for many months, mainly because of my balance issues. my parents took me to watch our local college basketball team, the beavers. when the announcer asked us to stand for the pledge, i laughed. "i wish", i thought. at that point, i could only stand for a few seconds with a death grip around something solid. after i laughed, i wanted to cry. i looked around at the crowd, thinking about what an easy request that was for just about all of them - how they did it without even a thought, like i used to do.
