Got the Big Eye. Too tired to read, too wired to sleep. Friday, June 20, 2014. A Perfect Lady Business Storm. This week three Very Annoying Posts came across my screen in a perfect Lady Business storm to set off this triple-header of a rant. Salty language and all the triggers I've ever had are included. You have been warned. George Will Mansplains "Rape Privilege". Some Guy in North Carolina Whines. Procter and Gamble continues to Tell Women What to Do. Colleges become the victims of progressivism".

Music, Cycling, Guitars, Books, Bikes, Guitarists. Saturday, June 6, 2009. Joey's Sea Otter Race Report. Sea Otter Classic 2009. Jr 15-16 Circuit Race. I hung on for a few more laps until I was officially dropped. Luckily I was not alone, a rider from the AC team was also off the back.

Got the Big Eye: August 2015
http://sarahgowan.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Got the Big Eye. Too tired to read, too wired to sleep. Saturday, August 1, 2015. My Great-Uncle's Recollection of the 1915 Hurricane in Texas. I was there at the big hurricane at Sabine Pass in August 1915. What was the train there for. He said tell Ross to get his bunch and get on the train for Port Arthur as there was a storm that would hit in less than two hours that would be worse than the Galveston storm of 1900. I went back and told the news to Ross. We both made it back to the house. Just as ...

Got the Big Eye: Don't Eat the Grape
http://sarahgowan.blogspot.com/2014/07/dont-eat-grape.html
Got the Big Eye. Too tired to read, too wired to sleep. Tuesday, July 1, 2014. Don't Eat the Grape. But mom had raised us with the understanding that our actions do matter and I knew deep down that not eating a single grape at sleep-away camp does indeed make a difference. Except we do know how. Don’t eat the grape. In other words, make your small actions count. If you are lucky, you can vote for the politicians who think the way you do. At the very least vote for the one who is the least offensive.

The Peaceable Kingdom of Bluegrass | Second Cousin Curly
https://secondcousincurly.wordpress.com/2014/12/22/the-peaceable-kingdom-of-bluegrass
Home base for bluegrass, Americana and roots music aficionados. Laquo; Postcards from Grey Fox. The Peaceable Kingdom of Bluegrass. As the year winds down, it’s not hard for me to identify my Most Magical Musical Memory of the past twelve months. In a funny way, the moment really crystalized before even a note was played: it was when the great Adam Steffey. Stepped to the microphone and said, Does anyone have a song on their heart they would like to share? On that night of the festival, it was The Boxcar.

http://sarahgowan.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Got the Big Eye. Too tired to read, too wired to sleep. Thursday, November 27, 2014. Today I give thanks for silhouettes. Black lace against a sunset,. Cat in the snow-framed window,. Today I thank my scars. Silver skin stretch marks mapping my journey,. The gold seam in a broken vase,. Tree bark and creases in the toes of my shoes. Today I am thankful for murmurs,. Whispered wishes and exaltations and. The skip, skip, skipping heartbeat. Singing love, loving, love. Sunday, November 9, 2014. Faeries spin...

Got the Big Eye. Too tired to read, too wired to sleep. Monday, July 14, 2014. Mowing the Lawn Ahead of the Rain. Mowing the lawn ahead of the rain. The sole of my favorite shoes gave way. The tattered rubber taunted me. With the news that these shoes were older than my grown child. My palms blistered as I raced the storm. Fussing that they were once. And that a handshake from the fresh faced girl. I was long ago. Made the boys wide-eyed at the callous and muscle and bone. These hands worked hard. What a...
