Anyone making the trip to Houston on Wednesday evening for Aaron's funeral? I would like to carpool with some peeps to Houston, rather than taking 4 separate cars! I wanted to leave Austin after my class on Wednesday evening, around 8:45 - 9ish. And return Thursday late afternoon/early evening.
Anyone? Anyone? |

It's Raining! This instance reminds me that I am connected to Earth as her child, a part of her tribe, a representive of the whole. I don't personally need this rain right now, but I know how much the rest of the Earth in South Central Austin needs needs needs this rain. Feeling the desperation of my Mother reveals how my energy connects to the natural world around me. This rain feels gooood. |

| The Renewable Energy Roundup |
[Sep. 13th, 2006|12:50 pm] |
This event is the largest sustainability event in Texas (and possibly in the South!) and covers topics such as Green Building, Renewable Energy, Energy Efficiency, Alternative Fuel Vehicles, etc. There will be exhibits, lectures, products for sale and more. It's in downtown Fredericksburg over the weekend of Sept.22-24.
This will be my third year to attend and I'm very much looking forward to it since last year I whimped out due to prospective bad weather (which, btw, it was gorgeous and DID NOT rain! ugh!) I am volunteering this year. I will be the host at the Red Tent Talks on Friday afternoon. This means that I get to introduce and give a bio on the speakers, keep them on time and on track, and assist them in any way possible. I'm very excited. The talks during which I will be the host are going to be 'Energy Efficient Construction from A to Z' and 'A Case History of a Sustainable Home and Working Farm.' They are both mini workshops, too.
How did I land this? They obviously don't know who they gave this job to. :) If you're interested in attending this event, let me know. I will be there all weekend. And check it out online at www.theroundup.org. |

Why is it that you can only pick one mood? That's why I'm indescribable. We'll let me try to describe.
Mood: Giddily Overwhelmed
Since Burning Man I have broke my engagement, broke off my relationship entirely, am moving out of my awesome home (Mood: Sad), am moving back with the 'rents (agh!), and have thanked the people in my life who have led me to the burning community.
Mood: Anxious
Mood: Nostalgic
Looking back, I know that my whole life has prepared me in searching for this community. Even back to grade school I was not part of the "in" crowd. All the way up through high school and today I have always chosen to be with the group of people that don't identify with just one thing (i.e. the band nerds, jocks, preps, etc.) The only thing we've chosen to have in common is that we are human and we are here to live life to the fullest. This sub culture that I've been introduced to is where I have been in my head for a long time - only I just found its existence in this physical world.
Mood: Content
So there's a lot of turbulence in my life and I could choose to see these things as "awful" or "stressful" or "unwelcome." But I know that these choices were made by the deepest depths of my loving soul for the sole purpose of loving myself and therefore loving the world. Wow.
Mood: Empowered
The hardest part is done. Thank you BM and all burners for assisting me in mustering the strength inside my being to do what I need to keep walking my path. Thank you.
Mood: Peaceful |
