chinese, japanese too.

I can't say I have a favorite holiday. I'm not really a holiday person.
-
I've always loved superhero/sci-fi/fantasy type stuff. I really liked the old spider-man cartoon, the Adam West batman show, and a whole mess of similar things.
I loved the Shazam hour, even though when I see clips of it now I realize how cheesy it was. -
I don't mind, although I clearly don't check it often.
-
I've always been interested in living in the pacific northwest, like Seattle. I'm also interested in San Francisco. I love the water, and cherish quiet, so places I can get both or be near it appeal to me. I've thought about living in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware too.

How or where did you hear about me? I don't think I know you.

THIS Saturday, visiting Kacie's family. Every Saturday, just being.

I used to be able to answer this easily, but since embracing the Tao, it's become a lot harder.
That's because as I see it every single moment, from being stuck in traffic, to breathing out frosty air at 2 in the morning by the side of the road, is a sublime, exquisite experience. Don't get me wrong - I'm not saying that I don't enjoy stepping out of my comfort zone, and doing new things, or going new places. I love doing that!
But I don't have things I need to do to make my life complete. It's already complete.
Having said that, I do have things I want to do, places I want to go, and things I want to see. In no particular order:
- I want to go to the Grand Canyon.
- I want to ride on a sleeper train, on an overnight trip.
- I want to travel back to exotic places I went as a child, like France, Japan, China, and Switzerland. I also want to go to places I haven't been yet - like Australia and New Zealand. I especially want to scuba dive with sharks off the Great Barrier Reef
- I want to change careers and become a sex therapist
- I want to write more books -
Well, ever since I was a kid, I've always had wonton soup when I'm sick. It's my family's version of chicken noodle soup. I tend to get little when I'm sick, especially if I'm tired. Getting all snuggled up under blankets with a shark or three (ir more likely seven), and just taking it easy is how I rest.

I think instead I'll say that I know who asked the question, and that I love them very much and find them very funny.

I absolutely have, many times. But I haven't yet.
I respond to it, and think of myself that way, a lot of the time. I started using it as my scene name, back then I was "babymako". But it's evolved to become so much more. It's my pen name, Mako Allen, as well as my scuba diver's nickname, with which I mark my gear.
But I also found out that it has lots of other meanings which make it dear to me.
Mako is maori for "blue lightning", because Mako sharks move so quickly, I think. I think it's a virtue to mentally be quick on one's feet.
Mako is japanese for "child of the truth", and that also speaks to me. I think being honest about who and what you are in your life is a great goodness.
It is also, of course, the name of my most favorite species of shark, whom I think are beautiful and powerful.
Strangely enough, I also found out that it's a yiddish name, a form of "Manuel". My paternal grandfather's name was Emanuel, so this really appeals to me. I loved him.
But yet I hang on to my vanilla name. I used to say I wanted to change my name out of anger at my father. But I let go of that anger a long time ago. My vanilla identity is a part of me - it has a lot to do with where I came from, my professional life and accomplishments. I joke around sometimes that it's "the name I sign checks with", but it's a lot more than that. I appreciate the duality, and the complimentary nature of my two sides. The vanilla me and the kinky me aren't opposites - they're like yin and yang, contained within one another, framed and created by one another. My brother/partner/self Spacey says that there is a great beauty to behold in contrast, and I agree with him.
