I like a little “woo” in my life. Anytime I hit a particularly interesting number in my daily writing I tend to do a bit of collective consciousness spelunking across the shared spaces of the internet. Unsurprisingly, 1111 sparks quite a bit of interest across pop culture numerology depictions. The first search results were women’s […]

Day 1107 and -20 Below
The polar vortex that is hitting the northwest of America has come to Montana. It was an eerie scene as the light of the setting sun contrast off the dark of the inbound storm We woke up to -20F temperatures (which is -28C). That the sort of cold you can get frost bite from in […]
Day 1104 and Storm Systems
It’s finally time for severe winter weather alerts. Much of America is under various forms of extreme weather watches. We got half a foot of snow in southwest Montana in Gallatin county but it looks as if we’ve more on the way with plenty of gusting wind and temperatures dropping to -10 Fahrenheit. We’ve got […]
I plan to work most of next week so I am particularly intent on resting throughout this weekend and Monday. I was thrilled to wake up to a snowfall this morning as it’s been an unseasonably dry winter in Montana. My husband was up before me and started a fire in our wood stove. I […]
Day 1053 and Revivalism
You’ve gotta have faith. I am a little surprised to find myself discussing what appears to be a genuine revivalist movement from all walks of life. “This particular corner of Twitter” is neo-Shakerism.

My mother is a real free thinker hippie iconoclast type. I’ve written extensively about my hippie Whole Earth Catalog meets Silicon Valley progressive technologist upbringing if you’d like to get a taste. Her generation’s history of counter culture and inevitable rise to power has many cautionary tales we’d do well to review. The limits of […]
Day 1017 and Crisis Chores
No matter how trying the week may have been, a day of rest is a day for chores. Fighting entropy is the fight to remain among the living. I feel more than a little bit behind on my goals and obligations. Doing chores is the way I exert my own will over a crisis. I […]
Day 995 and Finally Fall
Maybe it’s the sheer busyness of day to day life but I didn’t notice it becoming fall. I felt as if I was in the clutches of summer forever. But then the first day past after the autumnal equinox we turned on the heat. I woke up to the comforting sounds husband building a fire […]
Day 984 and Distrust
I had a bad migraine over the weekend that simply took up all the space in my mind and body. I woke up with a break in the pain and a deep urge to throw myself into something that felt like momentum. I found myself awash in sadness. I couldn’t stop myself from crying. It […]
Day 981 and American Sportswear
I was doing some fall shopping today. I’ve got upcoming trips for work in the next two months for which I am excited to dress. In my past life I worked in fashion. While I mostly worked with luxury brands, I did a stint in-house at one of the heritage American sportswear brands Ann Taylor. […]
