I am the Dominatrix of the Ordered Paradigm. A (mostly) Benevolent Dictator. The Bookkeeper. I am Healer. A Crystal Lady. I am the Grief Gypsy. The IT Technician. The Executioner of Dust Bunnies. The Weaver of Bedtime Yarns. The All-Knowing Oz. I am the Scraped Knee Kisser. The Puddle Drier. I am your Cruise Director. I am a terrible Maid. I am the Tucker of Sheets. I am the Prophet of Pluralism. I am the Banisher of Monsters. The Spider Whisperer. The Dog Walker. The Nightmare Keeper. I am the Lizard King. The Lounge Singer. The Swing(push)er. I am the Chef, Sous Chef, Pastry Chef, Barista, and Dishwasher. I am the Rocker and Roller. The Stone Killer. The Snow Shovel Shaman. I am our Tribal Leader and Medicine Woman. I am the Samurai of Slobber. The Warrior of Bruised Egos. The Puzzle Finisher. I am the Crying Woman. I am Solitary Confinement. I am la Virgin. I am Frida. I am the Wife. I am the Daughter. I am Beezus' Mama. I understand which way the boo-boo sticker goes on a finger and when the crying can successfully be wiped away. I am the person behind you in line at the market with two kids wondering if it is obvious that my third baby is in a tiny little urn in her living room.
