Her Name is Tegan. She is Feisty. She has Claws.
Really, I should be finishing this monster paper arguing for the biblical equality of women, not playing with Tegan. Mama Rose and Papa Joe arrive from the East Coast in just an hour!

Making Like a Cylinder
I have made like a cylinder and graduated. I now have a Masters from Fuller’s School of Intercultural Studies. Hooray. The walking-across-the-stage ceremony of boredom isn’t until next Saturday, but now we are trying on gowns and such. I am excited because this time around we all get to wear a blue hooded/extra-long necklace type […]

Dancing Three-Year Old Upon Arrival, A MOS Review
Happy days in barista land, where on Friday I served as quasi-manager for the day at the shop. The highest perk of “womaning” the coffee shop a la’ solo is usurping the power to shift the musical atmosphere. I figure that a little Over the Rhine, new Mates of State, and old Radiohead is good […]

It is Strange/I Reckon
It is strange how sneezes can feel like a moment of temporary healing. When you feel a sneeze coming around the corner but then it passes you by, life hurts. This week I watched eight year old Emily Klein perform as Tree #2 in the grand production, “The Three Trees.” Listening to 150 eight year […]

[My Pride] Bikes to Work.
Well, as I haughtily predicted, I won some raffle prize during Bike to Work week. I’m not yet sure what it is that I won, because I had to be rushing off to the coffee shop after dropping my raffle ticket in the box at the City Hall festivities. I thought I had heard my […]

Holy Hotness, Captain.
It is Pasadena’s Bike to Work week. I think my city is terrific for celebrating such things. Today is the official “Bike to work” day, replete with BBQs and such at Town Hall. Don’t worry. I plan on winning some dorky raffle in the heat.

“Suddenly Everything Has Changed”
I am almost twenty eight and one half years old. I’ve realized some things have changed, these days. + I have learned how nice it is to go to sleep early. I find that I dream in technicolor more when I do that. My dreams are such a riot that I don’t really bother watching […]

Narrow Stairs
There are only a small handful of records that I would purchase within the first week of its release. There are far fewer still that I’d venture to buy on its release day. Narrow Stairs is one of them, just out today. It may not be as epic as Transatlanticism or Plans was as a […]

You Are the Mama Rose, the Famous One.
I made Mama a short movie card. But WordPress wouldn’t let me show it to the world, so I posted it on my (now extinct) old blog. You may see it here. It made her laugh, multiple times over. And my Mama has got a great laugh. I only wish it didn’t have to be […]

Lawful/awful.
I’m safe and snug back in Pasadena. And today I made my way through a three hour midterm essay exam. I wrote out a full 10 pages (by hand) all about Christ Transforming Culture and Anabaptists and oh our Postmodern Fragmented Selves. The material was interesting enough, but I really think such three hour things […]
