Ravings of an Irate Pirate

Bald is Beautiful and I am not going to lie, I feel pretty great. Saturday's St Baldrick's event was a lot of fun, and I got to skate in a fantastic bout . So, the result? Photo by: Erhardt & Associates We look amazing. I had my friend Kelly put on my Glass so she could help capture the moment. The results are below! I have to say, I am loving not having hair. And, I feel big. The event was a success, and we raised more than our goal. So much fun, and so much support. Thank you all!

(This is rambles and babbles) Tomorrow is the big day.  Not only is it my last bout of the season, but it is the day I am shaving my head for St Bakdrick's ! I'm excited, terrified, and overwhelmed. The overwhelmed is strictly from the "Wow, look at how generous my friends, family and all these strangers are! Look how amazing!" Excited and terrified because I am going to miss my hair and I am afraid my head will be super bumpy. I don't think this gives my hair justice, but you can see there is a lot of it! I really am humbled and touched by the support I have received. This is a charity that touches me. I have lost friends and family to cancer. I am tired of it. I want to make it stop. And so, I fight. I fight really hard and I will do whatever I can to raise awareness and money to make it stop. Thank you for helping me fight. So, I hope to capture some of tomorrow through Glass. Lately I have started bringing it out again. It's been helpful in...

My Glass adventures have stalled because the husband and I are in the midst of a life changing event. No... not babies or anything like that. We are house shopping. This is probably one of the most emotionally charged things we have done in a while. And it is horribly exhausting. I am tired of looking at places. I am tired of being disappointed. I am just tired. I'm also worried about financing. It is the most emotional part of things. So, even through all that exhaustion... We fell in love. There is so much right (and so much wrong) with this house. It's amazing, and weird, and us . So, that is why adventures have stalled. Tough, I did take Glass along with me to the Londonderry Old Homes Day parade! I skated with my NH Roller Derby folks . We had a blast! Here is my short Glass video! I plan to also wear Glass for part of this coming Saturday... where I will be shaving my head for Charity! Yes... all my hair, GONE! More info is found HERE . So... I guess ...

The saying goes "it's the little things..." and really, it is. It's two people's hands barely brushing against each other. It's a smile. It's the sun shining and the rain. It's reading a good book. It's a view that cannot possibly be captured by a camera. It's laughter. It's a hug. It's all the little things that make the general experience of life worth every moment you have.  So, now that I am done reflecting a little. Packing for a LARP Weekend. Hitting up Queen of Hearts 20 . It should be a great time. I am actually looking forward to a lot of different parts. Mostly, I am looking forward to kicking ass on the front line. I'm hoping to catch some of the weekend through Glass. But, I will be fighting... so... it may be hard. I am really scared to break them... again. Yes... AGAIN . Granted, Google's tech service was right on the ball and got me a new unit almost immediately... I do not want to go thr...

I know. I'm neglecting you (my lonely follower). I have been on a sort of 'vacation' from everything. At the same time, I have been busier than ever. Adventures to resume soon.
