A Post: Poems and Bras and Dogs and Stuff!

Hey there, anyone who might still be looking at this. Waves at the internet

In short: Livejournal remains the best social media site, so here I am, experimenting with perhaps posting more regularly again. For one thing, NaPoWriMo happens next month, and forcing myself to create something that resembles one poem per day in April is a tradition I've found to be useful discipline, even though personally I'd probably choose October. So there will be poems soon.

The most important thing I want to do right now, however, is to share [livejournal.com profile] corpsefairy's exciting Indiegogo campaign. She's opening what is going to be a really fabulous, fun, classy brick-and-mortar bra store on Piedmont Ave. in Oakland, CA, offering garments that fit properly in a way that most available to Americans don't. If you wear a bra, care about anyone who does, or just want to see me wearing a pink bra and talking about how much I generally despise the things, go look (and watch the videos). Seriously, only for Corpsefairy would I appear on the web in a pink bra.

Pink bra or no, I'm never going to be as internet-famous as my little dog, and that is probably a good thing. This Tumblr post, visually describing Coba's bathing sequence has, at time of writing, over 4,000 likes, something that has never happened before. I am highly amused. Coba hopes that this doesn't mean that he gets even more baths.

On the subject of dogs, my pack of three and I continue to adventure. Here's a group shot from a recent walk we shared a vineyard. Sadly out of focus, but I love the touch between Zhava and Coba anyway.

It's nice to see you back. I love your poetry and the lovely photos you take, including seeing your dogs.

Gah! Why do I have no moneyz! Baron and I are currently trying to see if we can throw money at corpsefairy's campaign. Me hubbie's been getting the full bra-hate lately since I'm down to two good ones (that no one stocks anymore) and two bad ones that HURT HURT HURT (oh, and don't support at all). I would so drive to Oakland for this!

This bra thing is a serious problem! I'm of the opinion that Corpsefairy has the right idea at the right time and place, and hope that this courageous venture just takes off right out of the gate----because dude, she has a solution for the bra problem, and that's so useful. It's going to be such a fun store.

Unrelated to this, I have a pile of comic for you, and we should talk.

I've got you on RSS, so I'll read whatever you post. I was hoping you hadn't disappeared forever.

Yay! I'll be posting more dogs soon.
