Blow my horn

I have been an intermittent reporter for Frontiers Magazine and have an article in this issue on the 50th anniversary of the Oedipus Motorcycle Club called, One Wild Mother (pdf. pg. 43) or for the online edition.

Go check it out.

Yes, they've misspelled my name.

The article is in advance of the 50th Anniversary Gala on September 20th at Friendship Auditorium in Griffith Park. It is going to be a night of leather, pageantry, history and fun (not to mention steak and cupcakes). If you're interested in attending the event, go to the Oedipus website to purchase tickets. It'll be a night to remember!

Um, a little overwhelmed

Yes, yes, I've been reminded by everyone and my husband that I haven't been posting regularly.

I'm really fucking busy, people!!!

Writing

• I just finished two writing classes which, on the whole weren't all that satisfying but definitely piqued my interest in taking more
  
• I am trying to be a halfway decent writing partner (at which I am failing MISERABLY)
• I am attempting to start my 4th rewrite on the book that will not die
• Wrote an article for Frontiers Magazine (pub. 8/14, I think)
• Currently the International AIDS Conference is occurring in Mexico City and I wanted to cover it but I only have so much brain/time
  

Designing

• I am decorating a two bedroom condo in Palm Springs (about which I am so excited I want to pop) which involves actually spending time in Palm Springs
  
• I have about 30 or so unfinished objects (UFOs) in my craft room that must be dealt with
• Ideally, over the summer I would have redesigned my website and moved it over to Wordpress but that didn't really work out
  

Biker stuff
I am working on the 50th anniversary gala of the Oedipus Motorcycle Club which includes:

• designing an art piece to be used as centerpieces
• learning to use an oxy-acetylene torch
• creating platters out of motorcycle parts
• baking and decorating 400 cupcakes
• designing and creating a leather flag
• creating 32 table runners
  
• trying to get gay men to sit down and keep on topic during a meeting
  

Wifely duties (HA!)

• We had some health and home issues last month. TGIAugust.
  
• Keeping up my end of the bargain
  

Work

• I have a full time job which I would love to keep
• I have interviewed 3 times for a job that I would love to have

So there. That is what I've been doing.

I am NOT complaining. Everything that I am doing I signed up for and I'm really quite excited about. I only wish I didn't have a full time job so that I could work on all of this fun stuff full time, but that's not the way it works in Casa Queer. Unfortunately, being a good blogger sorta got thrown under the bus too, even if I really, really, really want to be writing on here every day. Which I do. Swear to FSM.
