Beautifully Precarious: May 2013
http://beautifullyprecarious.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
A balance between lessons, language, and life. Monday, May 13, 2013. Until Thursday, I had never been west of Kansas City, MO. Which makes no sense, when I consider my extent of travel elsewhere. But the opportunity had never presented it, and Stephanie's wedding provided just that opportunity. I'm a big believer in doing the thing,. Lauren: "Look at the mountains! Jess: "Yep, those are mountains.". Lauren: "Wait, now it's not mountains any more! Jess: "It's like Lewis and Clark on speed! My couple of da...

Beautifully Precarious: 2013 Books, Part 2
http://beautifullyprecarious.blogspot.com/2013/12/2013-books-part-2.html
A balance between lessons, language, and life. Sunday, December 29, 2013. 2013 Books, Part 2. Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. Robert M. Pirsig. She's the mistress of the environment, and can create the world of Appalachia like no other. I listened to this book, a tale woven of butterflies and the desire to get out. In the car on my roadtrip, and it is a perfect self-finding story (once I got past the fact that my carbon emissions were contributing to the poor monarchs' plight). An illuminating...

Beautifully Precarious: New Year's Eve 2013
http://beautifullyprecarious.blogspot.com/2013/12/im-sure-that-there-is-something.html
A balance between lessons, language, and life. Tuesday, December 31, 2013. New Year's Eve 2013. I'm sure that there is something questionable about using the picture that welcomed 2013 to welcome 2014 as well, but it's a colorful photo with happy memories attached that I couldn't resist. First a resolution update:. 1) Read a book a month: yep. 2) Make at least 12 "On Book" blog posts: yep. Beautiful weather during my last two weeks in DC. A week in Chicago to recover and re-evaluate. For the first time a...

Beautifully Precarious: September 2013
http://beautifullyprecarious.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
A balance between lessons, language, and life. Sunday, September 1, 2013. Company in that period, a commitment of an altogether different sort than has been my practice of late. Also, I drove 4600 miles in two weeks, the vast majority of that by myself, and I couldn't quit halfway across Nevada, no matter how much I wanted to. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Beautifully Precarious: February 2014
http://beautifullyprecarious.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
A balance between lessons, language, and life. Friday, February 28, 2014. I had an interesting thing happen last weekend. Or perhaps an interesting series of events. Whatever you call it, it was, as it tends to be, serendipitously timed to make me remember important things. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). The Goddess of YA Literature.

Beautifully Precarious: July 2013
http://beautifullyprecarious.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
A balance between lessons, language, and life. Wednesday, July 24, 2013. I absolutely stole this from someone else's blog, but it is a beautiful description of a warm night and the transformation that happens overnight in a midwestern midwestern summer and the perfect description - both of sheets and happiness. Links to this post. Friday, July 12, 2013. First Crush of the Artistic Variety. Good books, so many. Good songs, so many. Captivated me when I was "too young" to be watching it. It held my int...

Beautifully Precarious: April 2014
http://beautifullyprecarious.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
A balance between lessons, language, and life. Wednesday, April 9, 2014. I've had a couple of those weeks where everything aligns really oddly, almost creepily, pointing in one direction, or at least sending messages through one medium. Every single song on regular radio has been overplayed, and I'm ready for something new, or to return to something better than came before. She looked at me, really surprised, then asked, "Really? How did I not know that? And how, indeed? Although I assume it must have be...
