Holding Us Back
My new favorite song is from Katie Herzig. There’s lots to think about when your 38,000 feet up in the air and in an airplane flying here and there, meeting interesting people along the way, or taking road trips here and yonder, and so I wonder what is holding me back…I wonder about silence and [...]
Anything|Anywhere
Surprise! It’s June 5th. 2010. The Spring quarter is officially over, and I’m done with my first year of doctoral work. Life has surely happened this year for me, and I am a better person for the process. I’m spinning some Melissa Ferrick and channeling the good thing(s)–the good, true, and beautiful things of my [...]

Fear, A Love Poem Cherríe Moraga 1. If fear is two girls awakening in the same room after a lifetime of sleeping together she saying, I [...]
That which is Existing between You and I
Dear El/La Aléman/a, Life has certainly intersected in true, good, and beautiful ways over things which are queer, theological, feminist, and epistemological. We’re learning what is existing between the two of us. My cup overfloweth. We grew up in different countries located on different continents. We grew up speaking different languages, and learned the dominant [...]
(When) life moves you
I think I’ve sufficiently been moved…in a radical way… I moved to Denver from Chicago last September. I continue in the vein of the spiraling nomad, full of passion and heart for the things which matter most–the true, good, and beautiful things. In many ways, I never thought I’d make it this far. What’s a [...]
Distance y Tú or When Bodies are Separated
Friday nights are interesting for me. Tonight is no different. I should be reading Feminist Epistemology on this lovely Friday night, but I’ve put my book down. I’m listening to music and sitting in my chair writing and wondering. I’m wondering about distance and when bodies are separated. I articulated this today about how proximity [...]
