non-violence policy
from the brochure i wrote about the nursery:
Our nursery has a non-violence policy. Toy guns or other toys that shoot, slice, or otherwise intend to cause bodily harm are not permitted. Our plastic dinosaurs are friendly and our toy police car is mobilized only for retrieving kittens from trees.
nightmares notwithstanding, this is pretty much how i like to live my life.
last night i had another one i couldn't wake from.
i think it was about my mother. i'm sure it had to do with my inability to behave violently toward her.
oh, but aren't they all?
speaking of nonviolent protest:
all saints day is coming and i have decided that if i am ever up for sainthood i would like to be:
Patron saint of
the lewd barista,
sympathy sex for seminarians,
children who no longer believe in God,
television addictions
those with eating disorders
and
poetic break up letters.
i could talk God's ear off on those subjects.
on a more violent note:
is there a book out there about break up letters? there should be, it should be part sample, example and part how-to. if there is, then i think we should do a new edition every few years and really keep up with all the heartache out there. we could include text messages and email and lost and found and personals. and i'll bet i've written a few good ones and they aren't published yet so... a second edition may be a good idea.
