welcome.
this is the blog of Bonnie Stewart, educator and writer and social media fortune teller, partner and mama and daughter and lover of jellybeans.
i enjoy discourse theory and a good amaretto sour. i am recovering from a codependent relationship with my couch.
i have achieved the Nirvana of my people: after a fifteen year absence from my homeland of Prince Edward Island, tamest of landscapes, i have returned and victoriously put down personal and professional roots without having to work in the Anne of Green Gables industry. 
i live in a pointy-roofed white house in PEI with a Dave, a little Oscar, a littler Josephine, aka Posey, and Clementine the neglected cat. Dave & i live without Finn, our firstborn, a 26 week preemie who died in my arms eleven hours after his birth. this blog is where we exist as a family, narrated into some kind of coherent being.
i’ve lived on all three coasts of Canada, and in Asia and Eastern Europe. i started a Ph.D in media and communications, once, in Switzerland. i’ll start another in September 2010, in post-structural educational theory, exploring the implications of brand & social media for education and for what it means to know in the 21st century.
i have a fetish for spelling and trivia, and nothing particular against capital letters. i aspire to be on Celebrity Jeopardy; not for the fame, but for the fact that i like to be right.
some small part of me is saving herself for David Bowie, who is coming one of these days, but is not hurrying.
i don’t really believe in wholeness. i don’t really believe in copyright either, but will respect yours. and would like to be attributed if you use my words.
i write to leave a mark in the snow.

and…this is what my life feels like.
