Chirp-Chirp-Chirp BirdHouse Notes

Alright. How about this... Do you ever write a blog , maintain it for fifteen years, over-share about everything (well, not everything) and then try to cope with the reality that blogging is on its way out but that you are still clinging to the ever fainter hope that you will be asked to be on a panel at SXSW, interviewed by Terry Gross on the subject of mediocrity, and earn enough ad rev to replace your roof and install solar, while remaining humble and mostly anonymous because you are afraid of mean girls and critics, but really want to change the world for the better, and advance STEAM education for all children, and adults who love creating, and learning? Well, that's me, in a nutshell. Okay... a big nut. But yeah: Never give up. Never surrender!

So. Do you ever get embarrassed (humiliated) by something, and then feel like you want to stick your paddle in the water, and just completely switch course, turn your kayak the other way? I am battling my own ego, and impulse to paddle upstream, or get out of the water, or just drift, but I also have the sense to know that emotions are poor decision makers. (It was my intention to be smarter, calmer, more confident by now... but maybe in another decade or two, I will have my act together.)

Mahshid and Patrick are in Kauai... and I keep getting chicken texts from Mahshid. Beautiful Hawaii, green and lush, and I know how it smells, and sounds, the feel of the heavy air. And those chickens! Handsome roosters, doting hens, teeny bantam chicks! Perfect carry-on souvenirs, don't you think? Lucky me to have a friend who knows how to make me smile, who shares the fun and beauty of her summer getaway! Aloha, Mahshid and Patrick!

If you are awake in the wee hours, look east, where the crescent moon is hanging above the dawn, and Venus is rising, like a jewel. Even across the country, my friend and I have found a place to hang some hopes, and be in touch.
