The latest.

I am going back to work.

(How many people are lucky enough to get paid to "play"?!)

And thanks to Gilda Radner, here, I'll be sure to stay AWAY from the adhesive supplies in the wardrobe maintenace room this weekend...

I'll be back soon, folks-- thanks for your patience, your emails, and kind words during this difficult time. I appreciate it more than you know.

I'll be back when the skies have cleared.

Spamalot.

I've been experiencing "technical difficulties" for the past few days... The other night, this blog was mistakenly identified as SPAM by the robots at Blogger, and consequently shut down (at my end, anyway).

For anyone else who is experiencing the stress of receiving an email from The Powers That Be, stating that their blog has been LOCKED, here is the latest news on the issue:

We've noticed that a number of users have had their blogs mistakenly marked as spam, and wanted to sound off real quick to let you know that, despite it being Friday afternoon, we are working hard to sort this out. So to those folks who have received an email saying that your blog has been classified as spam and can't post right now, we offer our sincere apologies for the trouble.We hope to have this resolved shortly, and appreciate your patience as we work through the kinks.

My many thanks to Brett and Co. for responding to my request for a "review" so quickly... I can't tell you how much better it made me feel to know that it was not ME... it was THEM. (Because, I'm a bit insecure that way.)

And, of course, many more thanks to those of you who have continued to check in on me over the past few days! I hope to have the remainder of the "kinks" worked out around here over the next day or so. (We are at the cottage this week, and there is MUCH to report from the lake... Stay tuned!)

Incomplete

Incomplete

by Alanis Morissette and Guy Sigsworth

One day I'll find relief

I'll be arrived

And I'll be friend to my friends who know how to be friends

One day I'll be at peace

I'll be enlightened

And I'll be married with children and maybe adopt

One day I will be healed

I will gather my wounds forge the end of tragic comedy

I have been running so sweaty my whole life

Urgent for a finish line

And I have been missing the rapture this whole time

of being forever incomplete

One day my mind will retreat

And I'll know God

And I'll be constantly one with her night dusk and day

One day I'll be secure

Like the women I see on their thirtieth anniversaries

I have been running so sweaty my whole life

Urgent for a finish line

And I have been missing the rapture this whole time

of being forever incomplete

Ever unfolding

Ever expanding

Ever adventurous

And torturous

And never done

One day I will speak freely

I'll be less afraid

And measured outside of my poems and lyrics and art

One day I will be faith-filled

I'll be trusting and spacious authentic and grounded and home

I have been running so sweaty my whole life

Urgent for a finish line

And I have been missing the rapture this whole time

of being forever incomplete
