New Menopausal Mommy blog up www.menopausalmommy.blog. I'm working on the sequel to the first book in which I chastise myself for writing about a great love story and then, post-writing, get divorced. It's about the menopausal single mommy trying to date and deciding fuck it, I like Netflix better.

I played The Ryman in Nashville last night as part of a celebration of Judy Collins' 85th birthday. She discovered me 20 years ago and changed my life. It was a dream to play that stage and an honor to do it with Judy.

Are we all collectively throwing up our hands? It's all clearly unconstitutional. I'm tired of my congressional reps coming on socials repeating what we already know. I keep responding "do something about it" because ranting into the hurricane is just making us hoarse.

My son Huck just realized what word his name rhymes with. I told him it's an adult word and that Mommy and Daddy don't say it. With my fingers crossed behind my fucking back.

I used to be a grumpy morning person. Some called me aloof but I was just in fear. I've gotten in the habit of talking to people in line at Southwest and asking them about themselves. 99% of the time they tell me a cool story. There's a song in there.

I asked Huck if he knew who MLK was. He said "He taught everyone to be kind to each other and then he was shot." And then he said "a long time ago black people couldnt drink from the water fountains. Now we are all equal." I hugged him and thought well...

In the snowstorm today I wrote a poem and a song, learned a Dylan song and made a bean and kale soup. Then I stepped in my dog's shit. Story of my life.
