Welcome to Butterfly Pistol.


"Whatever you want to do, just do it. Don't worry about making a fool of yourself. Making a fool of yourself is absolutely essential."

-Gloria Steinem



Where I got the name

The name derives from, perhaps, the two most intriguing compliments I have ever received. "You're like a pistol," observed my English professor, and "You're just like a butterfly; one day I think you're gonna fly away!" exclaimed my sixty-something-year-old neighbor, both, I think, meaning to praise my ability to be great. My projected potential, at any rate.

What to expect
All things giddy & fabulous
Occasional feminist snark
Cute things my cats did
News that catches my eye


Shall we adventure on? I don't know what I'm doing.
