What Breast Cancer is, and is not!

California same-sex marriage ban ruled unconstitutional.

"Proposition 8 serves no purpose, and has no effect, other than to lessen the status and human dignity of gays and lesbians in California, and to officially reclassify their relationships and families as inferior to those of opposite-sex couples," said Judge Stephen Reinhardt in the majority opinion.

Who would have guessed..me..getting married!? 

Well shucks, Steve is a great guy ;) We met camping, and let's be real..you go camping with somebody for a week, it is the equivalent to a year. We met when the sun was still making its way up, packing up the cars for our trip to Death Valley.  Our eyes met within seconds, as I giggled that his fly was down. 

It was fate really, who else shares a passion for dental hygiene?! 

He shared his floss (on a camping trip), need I say more! The engagement ring is made of floss too, some  *myself* would consider this to be the cutest ever ;)

Llullaillaco Maiden — A 15 year old girl sacrificed during the Inca Empire for both purposes of religious rite and social control. She was chosen a year prior to her death, fed a ritualistic diet for an approximate twelve months to make her gain weight, then was drugged and left on the shrine at Volcano Llullaillaco, where she was left to die of exposure. For five hundred years, her body had been preserved at 82 ft. She is considered to be the best preserved Andean mummy ever uncovered.

Slavoj Žižek

From an interview with Señor Žižek:


What does love feel like?
Like a great misfortune, a monstrous parasite, a permanent state of emergency that ruins all small pleasures.


What is the worst job you've done?
Teaching. I hate students, they are (as all people) mostly stupid and boring.


How often do you have sex?
It depends what one means by sex. If it's the usual masturbation with a living partner, I try not to have it at all.

Slavoj Žižek, Slovenian philosopher, author, researcher, theorist who embraces the black cloud of depression when  he thinks of most of humanity. 

Gashes

A day full of organizing and de-cluttering = enough success for today.
Tomorrow, if my feet are healed from the gashes (from river crossing), one on each foot...but of course

good food. good people.
