Hello! I'm starting three new things at Light on Broken Glass.
1) Sip-spiration: Link Café
In Spain, you always have a coffee after lunch, which often means your lunch has already gone on for two hours and, what the heck, why not tack on another? Some afternoons during the week (2-5 times, to be not specific) I'll be sharing links for you to enjoy as you sip your midday café cortado. They will be inspired by my own Internet meanderings, pulls and triggers, so you can trust the authenticity of their emotional fortitude and general usefulness.
2) Talking Pretty Today
Maybe I overheard something. Maybe you said something ridiculous to me and now everyone will know. Maybe you will not be able to rest until you read the next conversation I had with a five year old. You never know. I may be sneaky and back-date these.
3) Yay! Poison!
At some point, I have talked to everyone I know about dangerous additives, chemicals and preservatives in our food. I still don't think people know enough about what these ingredients do to our bodies. I could get upset or take a serious stance, but why not use the Brechtian technique? As actor/author/playwright Mike Daisy puts it: "use humor not to anesthetize, but as a tool for deepening connections, so that an audience will hear things deeply that they might not normally be willing to listen to." Inspired by the Yay! magnets, I will point you to your (not-so-)friendly neurotoxin or carcinogen of the day!
Also, isn't 2012 amazing?
