I am feeling super burned out and have been experiencing it for about a month now. I will have been a DT Director with Save for a year next month and I am just feeling stressed about the lack of opportunity to advance, and the lack of difference I feel I am making in the consumers lives. I feel like I am spending more time attempting to improve beaurocracy than helping people...and on such a small scale. If i am going to spend that much time fighting beurocratic red tape, improving policies and enforcing them, etc. should I attempt to do it on a larger scale? Political Lobbying? Law? Advocacy?? I don't know...i'm just so unsatisfied. On the flip side, I am getting paid well above industry standard to do very little that feels like "work". I get 25 paid days off a year, I work M-F 8:30-4:30, I have no pager, no weekends, good health insurance (as of June all diabetes related costs will be covered). It is cushy...I feel selfish and whiny for even considering leaving for something more satifsfying when it is meeting so many of my other needs. Thoughts? Suggestions? Beatings? A list of ideas to get you started, any or all suggestions are welcome. The ideal job would have the following qualities: |

Hmmm...i sat down to write a lengthy update and tell you good folks what i've been up to. As it turns out my mind is blank and my hands are hovering with nothing coming out. I have been away from LJ for several months due to lack of internet access. So here is the deal...Tonight after 7:30 I will be home and by the phone. If you'd like an update, a coffee date, or an actual date, call me! Also April 4th, 2p-4p I am having a house warming party at my apartment in St. Louis County. Most likely if you are reading this, I'd love to see you. Even you St Louis folks i've only met through LJ/mutual friends, what better time to get to know each other than at a house warming. There will be door prizes (some of which require batteries) and chocolate and just good energy! Peace, emily/Towanda |

Hey Chicago People, I am coming your way this weekend! I'd like to plan a trip for say 1:00 PM to the Thousand Waves Spa for Women aka Happy Naked Lady Spa. It is only $20 for 3 hours of naked bliss including a large hot tub, a eucalyptus steam bath and a cedar sauna as well as cots, rocking chairs, blankies and hot tea. Who wants to join me. Following nakedness there will be stir fry, probably around 4:30 or so at Flat Top on Belmont. Those of you who know me well, will be shocked by this announcement. :) Also if anyone knows of any fun kinky activities going on Fri night or Sat night and would like to invite 2 cute dykes to be your guests please let me know, I'm bringing a friend along. Always good to road trip with sexy people. I am so excited to be heading "home" for a while. Also if you think I'll need your number for coordinating and don't think i'll have it I'll screen the comments so you can leave it for me. much love and boobies to come! me

Go to urbandictionary.com and type in your answer to each question in the search box, then write the FIRST definition it gives you. A slang term for a highly attractive and sexually intriguing individual. A sexual position in which the penis becomes hard in preperation for homosexual sex A name for the process of making out on a hospital gurney. Preferably in a small room designated for teaching. It begins first with a medical student practicing clinical skills just as vital signs, or a simple abdominal exam on another person of the opposite sex. This then progresses to an awkward silence as both individuals examine their inner feelings for the other person (lustful or otherwise). These individuals then proceed to make out on the gurney in a style established at UBC-Vancouver. Wiping your ass with toilet paper after you take a shit. The color that divides edible snow from non-edible snow A term that stands for "Makin' Easy Money Pimpin' Hoes In Style." The name of U2's second album. A short way of saying Depressed Emo Bitch |

Just wanted to thank you all for your love, hugs, calls, meals, furniture and support. I am an extremely blessed woman. Once I can add the chaos of my toddler to my world again like will be pretty close to perfection. 11 days without her is insane but so much goodness surrounding me is wonderful. I am so happy for all of you and my other dear friends/family! |

Anger is loaded with information and energy... I have lived with that anger, ignoring it, feeding upon it, learning to use it before it laid my visions to waste, for most of my life. Once I did it in silence, afraid of the weight. My fear of anger taught me nothing. Your fear of that anger will teach you nothing, also... What woman here is so enamored of her own oppression that she cannot see her heelprint upon another woman's face? What woman's terms of oppression have become precious and necessary to her as a ticket into the fold of the righteous, away from the cold winds of self-scrutiny? Those of us who stand outside the circle of this society's definition of acceptable women; those of us who have been forged in the crucibles of difference -- those of us who are poor, who are lesbians, who are Black, who are older -- know that survival is not an academic skill. It is learning how to stand alone, unpopular and sometimes reviled, and how to make common cause with those others identified as outside the structures in order to define and seek a world in which we can all flourish. It is learning how to take our differences and make them strengths. For the master's tools will never dismantle the master's house. They may allow us temporarily to beat him at his own game, but they will never enable us to bring about genuine change. And this fact is only threatening to those women who still define the master's house as their only source of support. Audre Lorde I’ve had enough I’m sick of seeing and touching Both sides of things Sick of being the damn bridge for everybody... Forget it I’m sick of filling in your gaps Sick of being your insurance against I will not be the bridge to your womanhood I’m sick of reminding you not to I’m sick of mediating with your worst self I am sick Forget it The bridge I must be I must be the bridge to nowhere

( words words words ) Hold Me hold me never let me go Hold Me like the stars in the sky high above me And when I die let me fly let me fly Through the night like the starts when they're falling...

 inana Originally uploaded by COME SEMPRE~ M.S.. Sing a little birthday tune today for my sweet and innocent Inana who should be celebrating her 2nd birthday today. I love her so much and miss her everyday. Not a day goes by when I am not thankful for her presence in my life. Today is a day that Venessa and I should be together more than any other and she won't even speak to me. I am so sad today. |
