Here We Go!!!!!

I used to have a hair-dresser who I would allow to do all kinds of weird-ass things with my hair.

She loved me because I wasn't averse to ridiculous experimentation, and every time she started something really wild with me (I sported a leopard-spot crew-cut before anyone even knew what to call it), she would begin by running her hands through my locks and saying: "OK! Here We GO!"

In precisely that spirit, tonight I'm kicking off my new thrice-weekly Ustream show -- called MadWoman At Play.



I have no clear idea what the result will be, but I know what my intention is:

To express myself fully in a way that moves me (and everyone who wants to come along) to the world I want to live in.

I've been talking to 'Liss about this on the phone so long she probably thought I was NEVER going to do it, but -- tonight's the night.

(A note for deaf and hard-of-hearing viewers, *or for those who have difficulty processing audio/video input -- I'm going to be getting captions up as soon as possible after the live broadcasts -- the video above is close-captioned, and a transcript is available at youtube just under the video, but Ustream hasn't mastered that yet, so captions and/or transcripts will follow the live broadcasts a few days later, when I post recorded shows on Youtube.)

If you visit the MW@P homepage, you can find links to follow the show on Ustream, Facebook, Twitter, and/or Myspace.

Hey! Come on over tonight and see me being weird-ass!

(If you can't make the live broadcast at 5 pm PDT, you'll still be able to watch the last recorded show until the next live broadcast.)
