thanks for being here, really.

The longer I live, the more people I meet, the more homes I am welcomed into, the more personal blogs I read, the more research I do on social justice issues, the more books I crack open - it strikes me how much each life can differ. The conversations we have, the chores we complete, the hobbies and interests we spend our time engaging in, the music we play in the background, the food we cook and eat, the things hanging on our walls, the issues we're passionate about, the lives we lead... This world is full of so much variety - from house to house, from town to town, from country to country.

The goal of this blog is to give people a glimpse into our specific life and how we live it. If I open anyone up to anything, inspire anyone, or disprove any myths or stereotypes about "people like me", well - that's just gravy on the cake... or something.

"To choose doubt as a philosophy of life is akin to choosing immobility as a means of transportation."
- Yann Martel

"If there were in the world today any large number of people who desired their own happiness more than they desired the unhappiness of others, we could have a paradise in a few years."
- Bertrand Russell

"Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense."
– Ralph Waldo Emerson

"Selfishness is not living as one wishes to live, it is asking others to live as one wishes to live."
- Oscar Wilde

"I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I intended to be."
- Douglas Adams

"3 things you must always ask yourself before you say anything: Does this need to be said? Does this need to be said by me? Does this need to be said by me right now?"
- Craig Ferguson

"Strength is not the result of constant success, but of the the ability to withstand failure and move on again and again."
-Naomi Aldort

"What other people think of me... is none of my business."
- RuPaul

about Silas

My smart and hilarious offspring! He can tell you all about building intricate lego contraptions, Doctor Who, and building his own levels in physics-oriented games. He is also obsessed with cats and all things feline-related. This kid loves Skrillex, Kids & Explosions, The Strokes, GirlTalk, and Kimbra. He is also an avid appreciator of snackage. Favorites include (but are not limited to): cottage cheese, turkey pepperoni, black grapes, cooked broccoli and carrots, mandarin oranges, string cheese, fishy crackers, apples, and yogurt raisins.
