Pingy-Dingy Wednesday – Birthrights: Singing

In the last Meditation for Queer Femmes, I mentioned some of our human birthrights: singing and writing and dancing and making art and playing.

Tex and I had the good fortune to see “Grace Jones: Bloodlight and Bami” last week, and we have been discussing and thinking about it ever since. Grace, you get one hell of a pingy-dingy! Thank you for everything, everything.

This is singing. Mit ein bischen Deutsche!

I’m a typewriter whompin’, card catalogue lovin’ white girl from back in the day, and I yearn for a time before the covers of trade paperbacks were all squidgy, so you can imagine that I don’t actually understand what a pingback is. I do know that it can in some way be part of spreading the love, and since that’s what I’m all about at The Total Femme… every Wednesday, I pay homage to the laughter and inspiration to be had elsewhere online.

At the Total Femme, my intention is to post three times a week: Meditations for Queer Femmes on Monday, Pingy-Dingy Wednesday on Wednesday and Femme Friday on Friday. Rather than play catch-up in a stressful fashion on those weeks when life prevents posting, I have decided to just move gaily forward: if I miss a Monday, the next post will be on Wednesday, and so on. Thank you, little bottle of antibiotics for inspiring me in this! (“…if it’s almost time for the next dose, skip the missed dose and continue your regular dosing schedule. Don’t take a double dose to make up for a missed one.”)
