Yard photos: Before
Here are the handful of photos I took of my “Place in Nature” for my Ecofeminism independent study class: my front yard before I’ve tried to make it any healthier. I’ll post more photos as things get better! ;)

Journaling while reading Griffin’s “Woman & Nature”
Later edit: I’ve been informed I wasn’t clear regarding this posting — sorry! I should have said what I am describing, in my comments below, is a collection of quotes of other sources put together by Griffin, the book’s author, to show the state of the world as far as women and nature are concerned…

Journaling for an independent study class
I’m crossing my fingers that Carol (my professor for my independent study in Ecofeminist Philosophy & Activism) will like the idea of my using the front yard as my “Place in Nature” to study during the semester. I think it’ll be a great way to make the yard a little nicer! It’s curious: when I…

Escape from San Francisco
I’m writing this as I’m heading home on BART from the one class I had/chose to take in this year’s CIIS Intensive. It’s kind of a huge relief that I didn’t have to take all the Intensive classes this year, which requires spending a week and a half again in San Francisco. This was far…
The Amazing Lovecraftian Jellyfish-Cloud!
Blerg. Upcoming school weirdness is distracting. That plus some unpleasant news sort of ate the creative part of my brain for a bit. Back now, however, and feeling much better after a good night’s sleep and a nice breakfast of scrambled eggs with blue cheese — rather tasty and interesting flavor from that! It’s a…

What is female beauty?
Lupin Lodge is a surprisingly nice place! I’m typing this au naturel by the pool, after cooling off from the heat of the day. The Lodge has over 100 acres and has been around for 77 years in 2012, so unsurprisingly it also has a strongly family-oriented atmosphere. There are also quite a few permanent…
