On Dreamwidth
Just a note that I've decided to make the jump to Dreamwidth as my primary journaling site.
Those entries will be cross-posted here as friends only.

My Work Site Isn't Blocking LJ!!
Oh my goodness. . . This will (likely) mean a change in my blogging habits!
I haven't had LJ access at work for more than a decade. -
Honoring Three Selves
I've been working through Andrea Balt's Creative Rehab / Year of You program, and have had quite a few powerful realizations as I've engaged with the material. This past weekend the title of the first journal exercise was "Accept Your Multiplicity." (Some of you will understand why this gave me a bit of a jolt/zing/twitch.)
