The RevGals may not know what they've unleashed in asking for any old five things that have been on our minds. Sometimes it's my bladder, other times it's Blanca's, but 3:00 a.m. is an old friend of mine. Three a.m. has taught me how quick, agile, and completely random a brain can be, how full of …

Friday Five: Light
Julie over at RevGals asks for this Friday Five, we fill the Web with light, in photographs, poetry, scripture, or whatever else brings light to a troubled world. Ever a shutterbug, I've recently taken up actually learning photography, which is all about light: the interplay of light and shadow; compensating for the lack of it; …
Friday Five: Throwback Tunes
Oh those RevGals! They ask the best questions; maybe this is how they became Reverends. Rev. Michelle Torigian posed these: Which musical artist from your teen years would you love to see in concert?

Friday Five: Needing an Epiphany
Michelle at RevGals asks, what do you do when you're spiritually stuck, and in need of an Epiphany? In no particular order: Clean. Yes, I use the trick of cleaning for lots of stress-inducing things and one would think I had an immaculate house but no, my house is clean in the fits and starts …
Friday Five: Distractions
3dogmom at RevGals asks us to list five things we use as distractions when the going gets tough. I'm super good at distracting myself most of the time. Just stay busy! Sooooo very busy! So busy I can't think about that thing I really should attend to, or the horrors of the day which lately seem …
Friday Five: Random
Late again, but Anne at RevGals asks of the multi-taskers: What is your “gotta go!” breakfast that you can grab and take with you in the morning when you’re in a rush? When was the last time you had a fun evening out, and what did you do? Favorite poet or poem? Who makes you …
A Tardy Friday Five
MaryBeth at RevGalBlogPals poses the question, if you had to be in a hotel suite for an extended period of time, say, a month, what five items would you most like to have with you? So here goes: Laptop - it brings the whole world to me without all the screaming and agita of TV …
