me: this book destroyed my life
me: *add to the favorite books list*

I forgot to put my ring back on after I took a shower and my finger feels naked

to be vaguely more specific: there is an art to giving someone the room to breathe and be whatever it is they need to be–to let them explore the myriad of options around sexuality, parenting, spirituality, philosophy, and other core values that are generally minefields–without forcing them into feeling like they should be/feel/believe a certain way, about any of those things. Jake gives me the perfect space, strikes the perfect balance.

I have such a compassionate, thoughtful, selfless, intuitive, delightful, poignant, intelligent, talented, and capable hub and best friend.

didn’t spot any auroras last night, but had a lovely 90-mile drive. two girls, a boy, a dog, getting lost, finding our way back; forget phone maps, bring a bottle of water.
