I need to get up out of my chair. NOW. I need to get back to work. NOW. I can't just yet.
Last night, I cried and cried. First, I cried in anger - in rage. I railed at fate; the inevitability of it all. The more things change, the more they stay the same. 'Round and 'round we spin back to the same place we've always been.
Later, after a distraction, the second wave of sobs. This time I cried in shame.
I will sail out into my life, unchanged, unmarked. I will spend this week with friends and make new ones. I will come home to my husband and rejoice in our success. This rage and sadness will abate for me.
Because I am privileged in my skin tone.
I can ask for help from authority when I need it, unafraid, always.
I can walk alone and not fear that I will be stopped or accused or suspected.
This sadness and rage will abate for me.
After a time, my heart will quicken and be joyful.
I will be happy.
I am sad.

Feeling hot, hot, hot!
You know it's a scorcher when you beg for extra, EXTRA ice!
And yes, I should have used my reusable cups! In my paltry defense, I can't wash a dish without ouching my hands. Sorry, environment.
If I confess to turning the A/C on, I'm doomed for all eternity, aren't I?

TR!CKSTER Trailer
A "highlight" reel of our TR!CKSTER events...so far!
See you in San Diego!
What I've been working on for the last few years!
I'll try to start posting here again! Let's see if my many photo apps make it simple or hateful!
See you on the interwebs!
