you throw hope up in the air...
From the monthly archives:
I couldn't pick a winner myself because all the comments and dreams were so amazing. So, after a brief search and one judge running screaming from my home, i found Neil on Twitter and asked him to pick a number and he said "11". So lucky number 11 is…
Jess! Who writes an amazing blog and has had her share of tough times this year. I know Mondo Beyondo will be perfect for her.
Thank you so much everybody. Your dreams were inspiring and amazing and brought joy to my weekend.

my waking life is wasting away
it's my birthday. i am old and young.
i walk out in the moonlight, 38 minutes to go, i dig through my corduroy jacket and find months of fairie notes.
my secret, my little life with my daughter. there are many nights i forget, or i know and i am so tired after work i walk by the fairie house. but then i remember, in my corduroy jacket, walking through the yard. it is like a strike to my heart. if you forget again she will have doubt. she will doubt that there is magic in this world and it might not be fairies, but there is always magic. there is magic in this world.
i only wish you had something, something to say
i have met and been in constant contact with some amazing people this year. i think i'm happy. i realized tonight that i don't let myself be happy. i feel guilty about everything i do.
life gives you knives, you gotta cut somebody you know
and sometimes i am mean, or strange. sometimes i can't control my thoughts, or feelings, or tears. sometimes i get away with myself and i apologize for that.
But, it's my birthday and i've had a really big fucking year.

Doing Mondo Beyondo, 10 days in, has been one of the most challenging things i've ever done or faced.
I have been looking outwardly and inwardly at myself in a way i never have before. I can see all the roadblocks i've placed in my life that are holding me back from living my dreams. I think the word "dreams" can be deceptive, what i mean is getting the life i need and deserve. Taking that deep breath and diving in. Freeing up time, space and energy to let that happen.
I am just so happy with this process that i would like to share it with you. I am going to give away one registration to the january Mondo Beyondo course. And! you are going to pay for it. Huh? That's right, i'm going to use my ad money to give back to the internet. The way i see it, it's win-win.
So just leave a comment telling me your wackiest dream and i'll pick a random winner sometime.
October 19th.
This contest has no rules and is open to anyone unless you have scorned me. But then, if you scorned me you could probably use this course.

Great now i have that stupid "beautiful people" song stuck in my head.
There really are an awful lot of beautiful people in the city.
So many in fact – they are starting to get ugly.
And so many women in heels, except for the new moms and holy crap there are a lot of those too.
I'm glad i don't have babies anymore.
Hoo boy was i ever tired back then.
Oh, but look, pregnant belly. I like pregnant bellies.
I wish i could remember those lyrics.
That cinnamon stuff i drank last night is filling me with regret now. I wish i had some charcoal with me.
I don't like the clothes boys are wearing these days.
That sounds old. I'm getting old.
Where IS my daughter?
My mind is feeling very random today. Happy thanksgiving my fellow canadians!
