"My diffuser hits a home run again."
Regarding the Sebastopol Community Center:
"All of the dance classes are Ecstatic, universal peace, silent disco, sweat your prayers... where's a good ol' ballroom dance??"
"It sounded so Sebastopol, 'honoring' something that was done a long time ago. It's okay to give the real reason! It's like there doesn't have to be a spiritual reason to make it all sound okay."
At a music event, to a group of her west county friends: "I know it's not healthy! Let me eat my corn dog in peace!"
"There is too much going on and I'm emotionally, mentally and astrologically inundated. Please don't bother me until Mercury goes direct."
During a staff meeting: "Can we stop passing essential oils around? It's very distracting."
Comment on a local thread:
"Can I just plant a garden? Does it have to be a big political statement?"
Reply: "Everything around here is a big statement!! I drive a PRIUS. My son goes to an ALTERNATIVE school. This honey isn't LOCAL! Maybe I wanna drive my not-a-hybrid Chevy and buy honey from Canada and eat it with a bunch of margarine!!" 🤣
"I work for a company in Sebastopol. So things like yoga and organic tea come up a lot. It's a west county group for sure. One day there was a long training. We decided to take a 45 minute break at one point and half the employees went into the lunch area and the other half went to do a 'yoga breather.' I had to go retrieve my notebook and went into the room with the yogis. I expected to see a few of them stretching or whatever. I was surprised walking in to see yoga mats, an online yoga class on a computer in the corner and co-workers doing triangle pose and a few peeps doing headstands against the wall. I thought, Okay, they are not messing around!"
Vintage blog quote:
At a local school, on a board with some photos from movies is a picture of Glinda the Good Witch (from The Wizard of Oz). On a post-it under the picture it reads: "Glinda is from Sebastopol."
