In a very average hotel room that’s not remotely near the kind of scenery this picture on the wall suggests. More driving tomorrow.
The corner of a hotel room with a chair and a desk. There’s a poster sized framed photo on the wall of a palm tree on a beach.

My son (29) is here for the holiday and this is our 2nd year doing Thanksgiving at the Indian restaurant near me and it’s just the best idea. We have (store bought) pie for later and plenty of leftovers for tomorrow.
A table at the Indian restaurant with lots of naan and rice, tureens of navratan korma and paneer tikka masala, and a sizzling skillet of tandoor fish tikka

Me but with this Trader Joe’s Thanksgiving popcorn. They always get me with the weird seasonal stuff.
An orange bag of popcorn sitting on a kitchen counter. It purports to be thanksgiving stuffing seasoned flavored, a dubious claim.

I woke up to the best message I could want on Veterans Day. From my daughter, an ensign currently somewhere on the oceans with the 6th Fleet.
A text message from Grace > Today 9:53 AM It's Veterans Day! Thank you for being my inspiration and a badass! Love you lots

Did a little yard work and had to stop and pose by my gorgeous fall foliage.
I'm smiling in front of a tall bushy bush that has red leaves and a few red berries. I've got sunglasses on my head, I'm wearing a light green shirt, I have black earbuds in, and I'm doing a fancy hand under my chin, except the hand in in a work glove.

I like it when it seems like the world beyond my back fence has disappeared in the fog.

SUCCESS!
A picture of one of my feet on a tile floor. I’m wearing a black shoe with snakeskin trim and a pointed toe, the other shoe is laying on its side in front of my toe.

Happy Halloween from the birthday sloth!

1988, definitely days of yore.
17 yr old me and my date ready to go to the 1988 senior prom. I'm wearing a long blue dress with some kind of ridiculous sleeve thing happening, as was the custom in the 80s. I'm smiling, my date is trying to blue steel. Although we both went to high school in Florida, 25 years later when I got divorced and moved to Nashville, he was the assistant manager at the Publix down the street. Weird.

Burlesque is not just fancy feather fans and fluffy robes. It’s also a sexy sloth.

@annazand.bsky.social here you go!
Well it’s me, looking like a sexy sloth that just crawled up out of the jungle.

Tonight’s pasties.
A pair of pasties sitting on a lined cutting mat. They are round with a large ivy leaf applied to the top and a double length of rhinestoned vines hanging down as tassels.

I'm so glad I still have my physical CD of this because most of the album isn't available through streaming that I can find.

And Tina Turner doing The Bitch is Back remains both great and defining.
An image of the album Two Rooms, celebrating the songs of Elton John and Bernie Taupin.

Okay well I guess I’m going for a walk today instead of swimming laps. Good thing it’s beautiful weather.
A sign on the door of the rec center informing me that lap swim is canceled this afternoon. My annoyed reflection is visible.

Ooooh this show is going to be so sinfully good.

If you're familiar with my acts, you can guess which one I'm doing, BUT I'm changing it up just a bit. Which, for me, means both sexier and stupider.

Promo for the burlesque show Cabaret de L'Enfer, Hell's Cabaret, starring me, Bex Revenge, on Sat, Oct 25 in Nashville. I'm looking at you upside down, from a seated position, leaning back onto a velvet sofa.

A very small pair of undies is being created.

I like how they look like a manta ray at the moment.
Beige fabric on a cutting mat. A pair of thong underwear which is basically just a diamond with a tail is laying on the mat next to rotary cutters.

Holy shit this poem by Louise Glück
PURPLE BATHING SUIT I like watching you garden with your back to me in your purple bathing suit: your back is my favorite part of you, the part furthest away from your mouth. You might give some thought to that mouth. Also to the way you weed, breaking the grass off at ground level when you should pull it up by the roots. How many times do I have to tell you how the grass spreads, your little pile notwithstanding, in a dark mass which by smoothing over the surface you have finally fully obscured? Watching you stare into space in the tidy rows of the vegetable garden, ostensibly working hard while actually doing the worst job possible, I think you are a small irritating purple thing and I would like to see you walk off the face of the earth because you are all that's wrong with my life and I need you and I claim you.

I would like to get this corset a LOT more sparkly eventually but I’ve got to clear away this set up and get the next costume sparkly.

Nashville locals will probably be as amused as I was by this passage.
She looked nervous, which worried Jamie, his head thumping harder as he awaited her words. "We...found a house. I think." He squinted at her choice of phrase. "You think?" "It's not my favorite of the ones we've seen, but it's nice enough. Outside needs work. But it's got all new renovations inside, space for Jack and for this one," she said, stroking her belly, "and a good-sized back-yard." "And where is it?" Lucy pinched her lips defiantly before answering. "Antioch." Jamie chuckled at her reaction, spitting the word like it had ants in it. "Well, what's wrong with that?"

I really enjoyed this book. The couple broke up a few too many times for me, but maybe because I’ve been in that relationship.

Here’s a good Mary Oliver poem for the weekend.
PRAYER May I never not be frisky, May I never not be risqué. May my ashes, when you have them, friend, and give them to the ocean, leap in the froth of the waves, still loving movement, still ready, beyond all else, to dance for the world.
