He taught me how to prepare, in immense quantities overnight for a family ceremony, hominy over an open fire, all the time calling me "mule" (because as the n00b I had to do the fetching and carrying). He did face a lot of grief from people outside of his immediate family, and kept his hobbies to himself. However, the "two spirit" concept was certainly known...in particular I had a few discussions about this with Navajo friends of mine. Anyhow, enjoy, and this post is for him.

My Mood: SL Join Date: Originally June 5, 2007 | Absolutely are. I'm preparing for our RL wedding in less than *gasp* two weeks...small as it is...I still want the baby, the man, and I to look nice for pics. We actually WENT on SL today, mostly to get in a heated discussion with our SL neighbor who tends to be a bully because he wants our plot of land... Life is good. I miss my friends on the rez. I think I need to log off and write some snail mail. Thanks for asking. I hope you're good too? Feeling OK??! |

 just like my one year old nephew stole the show at my wedding when I was 20... but he was soo cute. LOL, he is old enough to get married himself now.. time flies.I am feeling better. For some psychological reason I was a stress case this morning but now I'm a lot better. I am drinking a little which I don't normally do, I suppose I should have done it on new year's eve lol. But overall I am ok... it's always good to be here and talk.   | |
