I really, really miss them.

Bride of Meet Market!
A special Halloween themed Meet Market, the quarterly event for people looking to meet people for play, sex, dating and more!
We have the main space, which means more room to mingle (and breathe!). We'll have customizable name tags to make it easy to flag what you're looking for. Still not sure about making that first move? We have ways of making you talk...
Featuring:
--a sensuous atmosphere with low music for conversation and mingling
--a pansexual party that caters to both the monogamous and polyamorous communities
--a speed-dating from 8-10pm
--an expanded range of identifier stickers
--opt-in cloven fruit (http://www.amtgard-wl.com/library/clovedorange/default.htm)
--the return of strip Twister!
--semi-private make-out areas for getting to know each other a little better
Light play is permitted.
You can upgrade your admission fee and head next door to the Blood, Sweat and Queers (formerly Totally Queer) party (http://fetlife.com/groups/3866/group_posts/330573) if you're so inclined!
Costumes encouraged!
10/30/2009 8:00 PM--12:00 AM, the Main space, CSPC 1602 15th Ave W, Seattle WA,

some asked about the really amazing massage therapist I see?
His name's Drew and he works at the Dreamclinic.
I had a 90 min. appointment with him on Tuesday and he once again worked miracles on me. hiss style is therapeutic, deep-tissue massage.

I'm pretty sure I'm getting sick--headache, body aches, sinus pressure, vague scratchiness of throat...
one of my students has H1N1.
it's not the flu.
right?
I mean, I couldn't possibly get the flu twice in 6 months.
...right?

 | 04:24 am - [50books_poc_specualtive] fear.
I've been reading Octavia E. Butler's Parable of the Talents as part of my 50books_poc-speculative fiction challenge.
this is a deeply difficult book to read.
not because of the writing--oh no, Butler is a master of the narrative art--but because of the terrifyingly plausible dystopian near-future America she's created.
the US is in chaos--law/order are broken or hopelessly corrupted, slavery has reemerged, the economy has utterly collapsed and we're at war with Canada and Alaska.
the President is a charismatic fundamentalist sociopath whose "Christian" followers burn, pillage and torture to make America great again.
all of the main characters are scarred by violence, rape, displacement.
this book has taken its place next to The Handmaid's Tale as one of my nightmares of the future.
I thought Obama's election had in fact given me hope--given me space between myself and those futures of terror that haunt me.
this book has brought all that fear roaring back.
given the material I teach every day, year after year--Argentina's Dirty War, the rape of the Congo, Islam's gender jihad--and surviving eight years of Bush jr's presidency, thse futures seem all too possible to me.
and knowing what I know, I know how little value I'd have such a regime--
academic
intellectual
liberal
political
anti-authoritarian
charismatic
outspoken
agnostic
queer
perverted
aging
fat
infertile
...woman.
and how much I would have to suffer, as a woman, as a teacher, as the mother of a daughter...
I could only hope to be first up against the wall when the fundie revolution came.
