Absolutely owning this stage.
One of the best perforners, every single time.
Bringing that queer and gritty Jersey power.

Me: “So, here’s the deal, Jesus is all human and all God, all at once. Kinda like how Piper the puppy is Lab and German Shepherd all mixed up together, y’know? And, like sometimes more one than the other?”

The Park Rangers at Independence Hall in Philly are literally the coolest people ever. Inspiring, drummed up the Patriot within each of us.
Power to We the People! ✊🏼

Early mornings on the jersey shore with my girls. And, my mid-May shore footware. 🤷‍♂️🕺

A+ for this Boston College pup who successfully greeted 40 or so undergrads on their last day of their ‘Mind of a Dog’ course. Kept four paws (mostly) on the floor, earned many kibbles. Nearly 7 months old, this scrappy baby GSD/lab is such a delight. ♥️

Sunday strolling after worship. One of the most centering, deeply moving moments in my life is when I stand next to my son for communion. We bend time and join ancestors. Or, when I prop up his head while he naps on me in the pew. Or, when I sing my great grandparents’ hymns next to him. ♥️

Meanwhile, i’m in the backseat, napping, eating snacks and looking at antiques on marketplace 🕺🤷‍♂️ so, we are all having a nice evening!

Lovin this night out at the WooSox game! I really appreciate how easy, affordable, and family friendly these games are. For $15 bucks, I can park the car. For $3 I can feed the fam dinner on burger night. Perfect weather.

Alright, Riot Fest!
This’ll be a real fun time with the fam. Looking forward to the newly minted 4th grader getting some good live music education in Chicago. 👍👍

If the only reason I did a Masters and a Doctorate in theology was to lead my child in the rituals of our faith, on the floor of our living room, surrounded by candle light, icons of his choice in the center, my grandparents’ rosaries around his neck…

3. (Cont.) And, if it’s a time when our bodies are safer than others bodies to be there in person-that’s just what we do, with God’s help. We then reviewed the ways to think that through- we are white folks, who speak English and have US birth certificates. That means, in this case, we show up.

Here we go. Drug trial #3.
This stuff retails for several thousand dollars a month. Because, capitalism. Grateful, so grateful- to be insured. To have a physician skilled at going toe to toe with authorisers. Wish me luck! 50-60% chance this could be a winning part of the drug puzzle.

6 am yard time with these happy ladies. Our 8 year old is getting rather toned having this puppy around. And, the puppy is officially much taller. Get ready for the AT soon, girls. Putting your packs together today!

Mid-thirties = sorting through a few bags of my childhood toys after each trip back from SoCal.
Ninja turtles. Smurfs. Lion King.
April 16, 2025 at 2:41 AM
Yes. Cardigan time.

A super beautiful Sunday in Salem paroozing the fiber witch fest with my favorite fiber nerds, eating great food and picking up comics for the kid and I.
April 13, 2025 at 8:36 PM
Deeply excited for this ink.
Grateful to be moving my favorite new tattoo artist right on into the house 💅🔥

A gay Monday night.
Leather and spring rain.
Thanks for the renewing of energy, Boston.

This is what it’s like for those of us who are safety planning for our families at this time.
Connecting on the details of things like importing meds.
Receiving the concern and solidarity from across the ocean.
What a time.

No more kings.
Our house’s daily hope in the face of this nation’s “king”= studying revolution with our 3rd grader. Boston Tea Party. Stonewall. Suffrage. Easter Rising.
He gets it. And, he doesn’t feel shame or confusion when we talk about solidarity and privilege & our call to be good neighbours
