Yes, this is actually happening. A friend of mine put this event together, and I can't say I'm not curious!

It’s Friday, and tonight I’ll be attending an event (see above) that basically demands a certain level of inebriation. Will I be able to abstain from adding empty calories to my day’s intake? I don’t know.

What I do know is that this morning I weighed in at 160.6 lbs, a full pound down from yesterday, and that I’ve been good thus far today, eating my homemade cereal & coconut milk, half of an avocado with a cup of tomato soup, and a snack of roasted seaweed. In a couple of hours I’ll have a protein shake, and if I can work up the courage I’ll head out to Bikram after work. That, plus biking all the way to the muscle bear lube wrestling event, is sure to buy me the option to nurse a single light beer, right?

Hello,

I’m Nova

I have no “personal brand.” I’m not a girl boss, I’m not an influencer, and I don’t aspire to be powerful, inspiring, or rich. I probably can’t teach you anything, and there’s a good chance that there’s nothing at all of interest or use to you here. This is just where I come to talk about the random bits and pieces that make up my quiet life as a sober woman in her 40s. I’m engaged to the love of my life, have six (yes, SIX) indoor pets, and spend a lot of time gardening and hunting for thrift treasures. I also study classical voice (I’m a lyric coloratura soprano) and am deeply interested in all things spiritual and paranormal. Right now I’m trying to recover from career burnout and even out my personal energy, but my eventual goal is to become a medium and shamanic healer, using music to remind humans of the things that actually matter: connection, community, and loving all living things as though they were our own children. I may or may not talk about all of these things here (and sometimes all at once). Welcome!
