Brief Impressions | Our Irish Holiday 2008
https://irishholiday.wordpress.com/brief-impressions
Our Irish Holiday 2008. Irish Birds, etc. The weather was not as bad as I’d expected it to be. It was not as cold as I’d worried, and while it did rain sometimes, it was not always raining. I’d worried that, because it was 23 years since I’d been in Ireland, it would have become too “modern” for me. While there were many modern changes — cell phones for example, the country had the same feel as I remembered. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Enter your comment here. Address never made public).

Alphabird: October 2007
http://alphabird.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html
An alphabet. A bunting. A blog. And some utter randomness. Monday, October 22, 2007. O is for October. It’s that most wickedly wistful of months, the one you step into only to find yourself knee deep in some sort of nostalgia or yearning—maybe for something you used to have; maybe for something you’ve yet to have. It’s the month in these parts when you’re reminded what orange and blue can be together, and something akin to belief tells you they were meant. Thursday, October 11, 2007. P is for Presbyopia.

Alphabird: May 2007
http://alphabird.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html
An alphabet. A bunting. A blog. And some utter randomness. Sunday, May 20, 2007. V is for Vermont. There are no billboards here. There is asparagus, in a cooler at the farm stand, $2/bunch, honor system. There are Chuck and Dave. Back from their winter haunts, already hitting the art openings, already absorbing tales from the cold season. There’s a pair of orioles at my suet cake, fighting with downy and hairy woodpeckers and a gang of starlings. The rose-breasted grosbeaks make me gasp every time. In fa...

Alphabird: R is for Roller Derby
http://alphabird.blogspot.com/2007/04/r-is-for-roller-derby.html
An alphabet. A bunting. A blog. And some utter randomness. Wednesday, April 4, 2007. R is for Roller Derby. They had names like Goldie Headlocks, Miss Creant, Killer Quick, Lois Blow. They were fully helmeted, padded, mouthguarded, fishnetted. They were fast, graceful, tough. I wanted to be out there. I wanted to be them. I wanted to be 15 years younger and living near leagues. Lois Blow, queen of my heart. April 4, 2007 at 9:46 AM. April 4, 2007 at 10:36 AM. PS What would be your roller derby name?
