“Drawing Dreams” poem
Drawing Dreams
What if sleep is death?
And death can be conquered
by a lucid mind
painting its own heaven
(a mysterious door
that opens to bright deep parts
flowing currents of sharp,
soft pillows,
blue meadows of laser lilies)
If sleep is exit
from shining life,
dreams paint a path—
staring down eternity
in mansions made of puzzles
that one has to believe—all the time—
waking with meaning,
flying on the wings of
intention

She’s my fab fairy
This was just prior to an extended, knock-down-drag-’em-out pillow fight, you must understand. Lucky I got a modestly unblurry shot.

First weekend of 2010 SCCA competition
I tried out the competition wheels & tires for the first time in the dry weather at the SCCA practice event this past Saturday. Cherie is a *dream* to drive! She just kept going faster, and faster, and nothing fazed her. Now that I’m driving a car that actually turns, I have to learn to stop using the brake in slaloms! Those gold wheels are ridiculously bling, but I got a good deal on them along with the Kumho V710 tires as a lightly-used set. All I know is I couldn’t stop grinning, and this year is going to be seriously FUN!

PCA autocross event #1
It’s not an in-car video, but here’s some footage of my first run in the Cayman! This was at the Oregon PCA club’s first event of the year. I had six dirty—but increasingly fun—runs then finally got a clean one (but no video of that, I’m afraid) to place 2nd of 8 in my class, and 12th fastest of 66 drivers overall. Let the good times roll!
