one sentence about each of my yams

the hardest thing about blogging is that moment when you sit down and you don't have a topic to post about and your brain just goes blank as the screen.

but tonight, i got a disco-ball flash of inspiration: i'm going to write one sentence about each one of my wonderful polyamorous partners ("yams" for short).

first up: sasha! sorry to do this to you, sash, but ...

writing "'yams' for short" two paragraphs ago made me think of my girlfriend sasha, because she came up with the idea of using "yams" as our word for polyfam partners, and she is short.

next: msg

this guy makes me want to strangle him a little bit sometimes when he's being doofy and mopey, but i wouldn't trade him for the world, and most of the time, it's more like there's a particu-special little bit of him i want to get a stranglehold on.

okay, randomly picking a yam out of a hat: harriet!

hettie is maybe the most surprising person i have ever met ... which is really saying something, since several of my other yams can really throw me a curveball out of left field when i'm not looking!

so now it's time for: elle

elle debelle worthy and i share everything -- body, boyfriend, secrets, girlfriends, laughter, love, and absolute soul-sisterhood.

and: akane

akane enaka's name is a palindrome, and i honestly just love that so much.

last but so very far from least: ariel

ariel april worthy hurt her back over a year ago and hasn't been able to get up since, but she still somehow manages to be one of the very very brightest lights on the planet.

and you know what the best thing about this blog topic is?

it's going to be a thousand percent re-usable whenever i have blog block from now on.

i've got so many sentences i could tell you about these people!

xoxo,

claire
