the tree i picked out is too big! we need a saw
So, we’re back from shopping, including getting our tree! We ended joining our good friends for some good coffee consumption at the local Starbucks right after we laid down some loot at Crate and Barrel. We got to talking about the epistemological1 principles of 19th century violence. I wonder if this is something that I should begin to consider as I prepare for doctoral work? Especially the epistemology of violence around the border…? Or, it was just a good conversation?

iRobyn is rooted in the theories and practices of theological feminism[s], seeks to be faithful to culture gazing and navel gazing, is commited to being a critical social player and critic of society. Additionally, the work found on this site is a thoughtful, intentional, and critical response to the intersections of culture, gender, race and class. I seek out narrative and want to celebrate the ritual of narrative in a variety of ways, from a theological perspective to gender, politics, & culture. This site is about creating and celebrating the passion of narrative which is all rooted in the passion of friendship. I begin & end at a place of Social Ethics via the discipline of Theology.
