I am performing the second variation of this performance tonight at the Corcoran Gallery of Art, and I am very emotional.

Homme and I have been together for a year. October has always been my favorite month.

Bread and Puppet: Glover, Vermont
One of the most inspirational places for one to find hope in this confused world— It is a community based on compassion, work, and creation without the constraints of the money economy. Never have a seen such a simple, poignant, thought provoking production as their THIS and THAT Circus. Within twenty minutes I had tears in my eyes. After the production we surprised my dear friend Sarah- a Bread and Puppet-ress. We saw each other and ran to a tearful, joyous embrace. I have so much gratitude for my friend sharing the experience of Bread and Puppet with Homme and I. Vermont is a blessed country side, where goodness happens in abundance.

Femme and Homme went to Quebec to farm. They were shocked to be welcomed by every single person in the entire province. Even bank tellers glowed with warmth and kindness.
