From My Irregular Bones

L-R Frank DeMiero, Luis Moscoso, Vince DeMiero

 

Sometime in your community these great things happen that make you glad to call it home- people having their voices heard are among my personal favorite moments.

So here’s a moment I’d like to share:

In my community a former bus driver and a highschool teacher are running for Office.

One of the candidates Luis Moscoso ( the former bus driver  who  is running for WA  State Representaive Pos. 2) is my husband and the other candidate (the teacher who is running for  WA State Representative Pos 1) is Vince DeMiero.

This post isn’t  just  a political statement its a heartfelt one.

Luis and I have been together for over 20 years- he makes me  proud every single day of our lives together.  He’s made me a little less angry at the world because  from Luis I have learned that sometimes- though it is a struggle- an individual and one voice CAN make a difference.

 Running for any office is a contact sport- and  at times it’s gotten rough and nasty.

Vince and his family have made that journey for me- as the wife of a candidate easier to take. Vince and his wife and his wonderful parents have reminded me that there is kindness and fairness out there- even when I went on-line and saw that jokes were being made about using my husband for target practice.

Against the worst that  some people can do Luis and Vince remind me that there are good people looking to do the right thing.

So here is to  Luis and Vince- good luck to us all this Tuesday:

I Think It Has Become Obvious

I think that since I took a break from writing  that the following has happened.

I think I am less interesting.

I think I have become unfunny.

That is what I think.

For Five Fears

From:

Visual Journal Prompts

(Wednesday, January 29, 2003)

Take a newspaper or magazine page and randomly cut thirty words. Cut out big words or little words. Once you have the words use them like magnetic poetry and write the last thing you say to the world before dying. You can make any adjustments by cutting off letters and arranging them in any way you like.

Hi Everyone.

I have not been writing daily because my husband is running for office.

You will NOT believe the stories I have to tell.

And tell them I will

because

Dead Men Tell No Tales

But writers with blogs and boodles of  readers DO.

Zac IS Awesome

I found this story about Zac at Archie McPhees Blog.

This is what they said about Zac over at Archie’s :

1. Zac is awesome.

2. He toured Seattle.

3. The video of his tour was edited to a Jurassic 5 song.

4. He underwent an Archie McPhee chickenification process.

After watching the video, you may return to your normal life exactly 35% happier than you were before you watched it.

They do not lie at Archie’s.
