A Word A Day Keeps the Dr. Away: muttonchops

muttonchops

muttonchops: sideburns that are connected by a moustache, but no chin hair; chopped wool from a mature sheep

I am sad to announce that Jesse (the bf) shaved his beard off this past Sunday. I will lament it's passing deeply, at least until next winter. Before he clean-shaved everything, he crafted some amazing muttonshops and left them on for a day. It was bliss. Best day ever really. I love this man. Would have liked to see the chops stick around for longer than a day though. Lol.

I think he thought he looked like this, so he shaved 'em off :(

But he actually looked like this, grrr. Yum.

Eat My Words

I was once prescribed to keep a journal. I was told, write anything down- mundane occurrences, incoherent thoughts, complete nonsense- ramble on and on if I must. I did such and quickly found "what a power there is in words; later for those who hear them, but first for the one who finds them; a healing power, a solution, like the breaking of a barrier" [ayn rand]. I learned that "it helps to write it down even if you then cross it out" [nada surf]. I mean, think about it...most great authors wrote from a place of pain, their words laden with suffering, but through this inked art form I would like to think that a shred of health and sanity was salvaged just by sharing their words. and to that I dedicate this blog.
