Not that I don't mind returning to the wash-yur-own dishes days. That was childhood. But it is just such a good metaphor for life these days. As the month races away, I'm left running around trying to pick up the thousand loose ends while everything is self-destructing. Sigh. But there are few neat things that have happened.<br />
<br />
Like this amazing <a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/style/guerrilla-gardeners-spread-seeds-of-social-change/2012/04/14/gIQArAA6HT_story.html?hpid=z2&tid=sm_twitter_washingtonpost">front page Washington Post story</a> about my guerilla gardening class and food justice justice projects in the city. Well written and researched, it was a relief to not sound foolish in another newspaper article!<br />
<br />
How about this incredibly thoughtful piece in the newest Atlantic about <a href="http://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2012/05/is-facebook-making-us-lonely/8930/"><span style="color: #3d85c6;">loneliness and Facebook</span></a>? Which I could also see connections to the larger internet, including the blogosphere. It can sometimes be just another narcissistic way to carefully curate your image and put more distance (both real and digital) between you and others. I have to be careful about the amount of time I spend ogling other people's seemingly pretty and perfect lives and remind myself that it is only a small portion of their reality. And the voyeurism thing is what turned my off about Facebook in general, so that is also something I am overly conscious of.<br />
<br />
Anyways, that is all. I shall leave you with this:<br />

Recent photos. (1&2) A couple of pretty wall papers. (3) A neat-o light display from <a href="http://www.saint-ex.com/">Saint-Ex</a>, a bar dedicated to the author of The Little Prince. (Which also has a rocking late night dance scene.) (4) And from the Kennedy Center, where I saw a rousing performance of Mendelssohn's <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elijah_(oratorio)">Elijah</a> this week.<br />

Also, I'm hoping to catch this movie tomorrow on a peaceful Easter Sunday. It looks delightfully goofy.<br />

So as much as I like to hem and haw about Washington D.C., I have to admit that there are times I love living here. Yesterday, I attended an <a href="http://www.aflcio.org/Blog/Political-Action-Legislation/Book-Tells-Stories-of-SNCC-Women-with-Hands-on-the-Freedom-Plow">event </a>at the AFL-CIO building, which has this beautiful mosaic.</div>

The event was a celebration of a new book called <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Hands-Freedom-Plow-Personal-Accounts/dp/0252035577">Hands on the Freedom Plow</a>, in which the women of the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Student_Nonviolent_Coordinating_Committee">Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee</a> (SNCC) told about their involvement in the civil rights movement. It was quite moving. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernice_Johnson_Reagon">Bernice Johnson Reagon</a> was there and she talked about her epiphany of changing the words of spirituals into freedom songs. Here is her singing in the 1960's:</div>

I scored heavily recently at the thrift store. A straw hat for gardening, a nice wool blanket, leather sandals from Brazil, a beautifully embroidered blouse. Is it African? I'm not sure. Best of all is the pretty sheepskin from Argentina. I've been very tempted to buy a new one on Etsy this week and then of course I find this beauty for a steal! I love that magic of thrift stores.</div>

Hi y'all. Been a busy week with making <span id="goog_1038464678"></span>pinatas<span id="goog_1038464679"></span> and pies. Celebrating my birthday with homemade bread and stew, breaking mirrors (and paradigms) and dancing all night to shake off my twenty fourth year to make way for my twenty fifth. I've had an early spring picnic and bought some pretty new shoes. My new year is off to a good start.Melissahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15772703699082543060noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7809245277594769088.post-49038261322691565282012-03-05T09:04:00.000-08:002012-03-05T09:04:40.479-08:00It's a Wonderful Day for Pie<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/a-snfaG2JH8?rel=0" width="480"></iframe>Melissahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15772703699082543060noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7809245277594769088.post-6928812993220378572012-03-03T11:15:00.004-08:002012-03-03T11:15:56.679-08:00Real<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; text-align: left;">“What is REAL?" asked the Velveteen Rabbit one day...

<pre>I walk past your
flower room every day.
I see you,
but I say nothing.
I'm so afraid
to look at you.
Oh, girl.
You say I'm the strongest.
I say you're the kindest.
You ask me where I'm going.
I point to the ocean.
Oh, girl.</pre>Melissahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15772703699082543060noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7809245277594769088.post-20217571134827402012-02-14T12:11:00.001-08:002012-02-14T12:12:34.996-08:00Russian Ensemble Birch Dance<div style="text-align: center;">
