Oof!
Moving is crazy, you know? But kinda fun.
I keep telling myself.
I'm just waiting to see if I pass out. Long story.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

It makes me wanna build a green home. Granted, I already wanted to do that, but it's neat to see some different construction methods/ideas. If only I had cash and land.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Are you at the new place now, Bev?

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Hi, Bev!

Yeah, if I had the money, I think I'd use one of the zero/global warming polyurethanes along with grancrete (concrete created with magnesium based cement that has much lower GHC impact than Portland cement). You end up with a superinsulated super air tight house, that will use much less energy to operate but that also has low impact in creation - total plastic only slightly more than the plastic or fiberglass used in insulating a normal house, low impact cement has less impact than even sustainably harvested wood.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Moving is *awesome* because you are moving in the right direction. Um... Mine.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
A green house would be great. I'm in an apartment now, and there's just about nothing that I can do, other than recycling, toward that sort of stuff.

I just ended up (rather randomly via last minute very nonspecific invite) at this movie at the Seattle Jewish Film Fest, and it was pretty darn good!
"Secrets is the story of a gifted and pious daughter of an Orthodox rabbi and her rebellious quest for individuality. Wary of marriage in an insular community, Naomi convinces her father to send her to an all-female Jewish seminary in Safed, an ancient center of Kabbalistic study, or mystical Judaism. There she befriends another free-spirited student, Michelle, and the two encounter a mysterious, ailing foreigner (the iconic French actress Fanny Ardant) with a disturbing past. Attempting to purge the woman's sins through kabbalistic rituals, Naomi and Michelle embark on a risky journey into forbidden realms."
The girl who played Naomi was *gorgeous* (she looked very Kate Winslet-y), and the girl who played Michelle totally reminded me of...someone...and I can't figure out who.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
'Secrets' sounds a little like Naomi Alderman's 'Disobedience' (a fantastic book), at least in terms of themes. meara, do you know if the film's going on general release at any point? It sounds interesting.
Moving is crazy, you know? But kinda fun.
I'd stick with just crazy, myself. Gah - two weeks to go, and I'm spending them here (uni) while the other one packs. What's the new place like, Beverley?

I'm in an apartment now, and there's just about nothing that I can do, other than recycling, toward that sort of stuff.That is the frustrating part of watching Planet Green channel. Lots of cool ideas, and I'm looking around my rental going "nope, can't do any of those". Thankfully the place is well insulated (except for the single pane glass sliding glass door). Oh well.
