  • Weekend Wandering

    Having fun with hygiene products in hotels in Richmond this weekend.

  • Massive Move

    A massive apartment move is going on with my family this weekend. Now my bike is out of the old apartment. In tarot cards the Death card does not mean “literally” death but change. I ironically pulled a death card out on a reading the night before I started the move.

  • Dating 2020

    I went on a date last Saturday night where all the guy tried to do was sell me houses. At least that one showed up many Internet dates don’t EVEN do that much. Virginia dating sucks in general, but the pandemic has made it EPIC on the horrible scale! I have lived in many towns in my life, but have to say I have hated Richmond the most of any one of them. I beg my family daily to leave. Then ironically they put the slogan “Virginia Is For Lovers” on the license plates of the cars when Richmond, Virginia is the MOST horrible town I have EVER lived in in my life for dating.

    Interview With Steve Hall On Haven Online 2020

    I recently traveled by airplane mid-pandemic to see old friends in Austin, Texas. I managed to run into several artist friends, and interviewed them about their latest projects. Steve Hall was one of the friends I talked to when visiting. Steve also let me take a new selfie with him, and I was happy about this as I had dropped ten pounds since I took the last one with him. I was lucky to run into so many people as the dramatic conditions of the pandemic have increased difficulty in communicating all over the world.

    Steve is known by many names. He goes by Steve Hall -O- Ween, DJ Prophet, and just good old Steve. Steve’s job has him working from home these days, but he is still being very productive. His creativity’s productivity has not suffered as well. He has been hosting many online streaming events for friends near and far away. Haven online was his latest project for the Elysium restaurant and music venue in Austin. This regular online DJ event is one of the more popular ones on Twitch TV. Twitch seems to have become a favorite DJ method in the pandemic perhaps due to it’s many connections to the popular Patreon.com funding platform.  Tune in to https://www.twitch.tv/elysiumhaven to check out the stream. Unfortunately ironically I was flying back to Richmond, Virginia that night, and missed the Void guest DJ set, but I will be sure to catch the future streams. I miss Austin, Texas badly, but planes, trains, and RV van trips are sure to keep me visiting the live music capitol of the world often. 

    “Tonight! Join us again for more mayhem!” Said Steve Hall promoting the DJ stream.

  • The Call

    I post on Facebook I will be visiting the south and Texas. About 50 now single ex-boyfriends ask me out, and one hundred old school friends offer to buy me dinner. I try to have a party in Virginia, and crickets sing next to my phone as way fewer people call. I am trying not to be a negative Nelly! However it is a prime example of the fact that it is not me, and the social world just in fact sucks in Virginia. I am so visiting the south more this year. This is my birthday week, and the social void hurts most this time of year.
