You know, stuff. Bits of memory shrapnel. From my brain to the screen, shared. January 24, 2015. Tiny house too tiny for the wardrobe I love. Today I hung up my clean clothes that have been piling up, and I know it'd be nice to live in a space where my clothes don't pile up like this. A tiny house, perhaps? I have been obsessing about living in a tiny house for several years. I've looked into it seriously several times. I know some of the people in DC that live in tiny houses. She very logically replied,...

You know, stuff. Bits of memory shrapnel. From my brain to the screen, shared. December 24, 2014. I once had a friend ask if I had any negative aspects to deal with related to my contortionism. At the time, I couldn't think of any. "Wow," he said, "you're like a superhero! You just get to be super flexible with no negative consequences! For myself, and for those interested or dealing with EDS themselves, here is a list of my symptoms. Hypermobility (9/9 beighton score. Velvety, soft, stretchy skin. I bri...

http://alyssum.blogspot.com/2011/10/tiny-home-obsession.html

You know, stuff. Bits of memory shrapnel. From my brain to the screen, shared. October 7, 2011. A couple weeks ago, I went through a re-invigorated obsession with tiny homes. I have always loved the idea of living in a tiny home since before we lived on Feather. 10 ft wide at it's widest by 38 ft long). When I was 18, I lived in an RV for a few months with my boyfriend at the time. Amazingly, it was a step up. Then a couple days after that, I saw pictures of these awesome " Idaho sheep wagons. You can bu...

The internal incision is vertical; from my pants line up to my bellybutton. Blue area = lost skin sensation. Weird. I am grateful (so grateful! Once I feel these angers and sadnesses, I come back to knowing, simply, that life isn't fair. And that while no options are good ones, at least I have options? Sigh* Every time I f...

Mid despair, I saw this marvelous sliver of a rainbow to knock me out of my circular thoughts. It made sense in my head. So that's what I've been working on for several years, in several aspects of my life. I read about people who said things like. If, on a scale from 1-10, various aspects of your life rank as a bunch of 7's, most people would think, 'Awesome! Rachel Brice...

Living Sanny: December 2010

Saturday, December 25, 2010. Not much changes in the world of toilet paper design. For the past 50 years or so, it's been a staple: cardboard tube wrapped with toilet tissue. Scott, however, has broken this predictable design and to go tube-free! Think about that.this will diminish a significant amount of waste over the years! More on that here.

Living Sanny: Plastic, Trash, Animals Dying, and Humans Changing

http://livingsanny.blogspot.com/2010/11/plastic-trash-animals-dying-and-humans.html

Sunday, November 7, 2010. Plastic, Trash, Animals Dying, and Humans Changing. The TEDx: Great American Garbage Patch. Was held yesterday in Los Angeles, CA. I wish I could have gone, but am glad that some of the videos are available for everyone (yay, less carbon emissions for travel, too). This is a great one, it hammers in the point about how animals can't tell the difference between plastic and food. Instead of the usual discarded shell from another crustacean, this little crab.

Living Sanny: Real Climate

http://livingsanny.blogspot.com/2010/11/real-climate.html

Monday, November 8, 2010. Interested in climate change, but don't know how to learn more efficiently? Is a great place to start because they have information gathered for everyone from the very basic beginner to those who already are well informed. I like that there's even a section for "Informed, but seeking serious discussion of common contrarian talking points". The climate scientists are on the figurative war path against skeptics.
