Positivity and The Usual Error

by Megan M. on June 14, 2007 (Blog) |

Ladies and gentlemen, butches and femmes, delicious blog-reading visitors of all shapes, sizes, origins and orientations: We have come full-circle.

Positivity was the first Usual Error workshop I posted publicly about, and today it is the most recent workshop I have attended—twice!! I have gone through two cycles of Usual Error presentations, give or [...]

Conflict Resolution, Take Two!

by Megan M. on June 13, 2007 · View Comments (Blog) |

Conflict Resolution—Usual Error Workshop Extraordinaire!—happened at the end of May, and did I blog it promptly afterwards?? Did I?? These poor lonely notes have been languishing in my moleskine for weeks. It’s so sad!

Conflict Resolution is the first workshop that I decided was absolutely, positively, no-contention tax deductible. For obvious reasons! [...]

Conflict –> Communication (2)

by Megan M. on May 24, 2007 (Blog) |

Meta-communication is something very dear to my heart these days.

Conflict –> Communication (1)

by Megan M. on May 23, 2007 · View Comments (Blog) |

Today we peruse my notes on Turning Conflict Into Communication, and the (slightly) disorganized thoughts that stem therefrom.

There has been much discussion, of late, about HALT. I think acronyms are usually cheesy, but the concept is very sensible. Consider pausing your communication attempts if you are Hungry, Angry, Loopy, or Tired. The [...]

Boundaries (Part Two, Meat)

(Part One.)

Pace: “The Usual Error is assuming other people are just like you.”
Kyeli: “…And we all do it all the time and it’s totally okay.”

Hello there, faithful citizens of Earth! It’s soooo muddy here!

The Boundaries workshop was my first opportunity to re-attend a Usual Error session. I’m going to quote some of my older [...]

Boundaries (Part One, Musings)

by Megan M. on May 22, 2007 (Blog) |

Boundaries happened the 28th of April—oops! I guess a lot has been going on around here, dude.

The first thing I want to write is about how I have this question, all the time. Boundaries is a humongous subject. It certainly expands far beyond what the Usual Error workshop covers. Everyone has specific [...]

Usual Error Bits & Pieces

by Megan M. on April 27, 2007 (Blog) |

Whew! It’s been a busy week, somehow, and now we’re nearing the end of it and I still haven’t processed my latest Usual Error notes. The triad gave a condensed version of their entire presentation this last weekend, during my fabulous Bastrop camping trip, and I picked up a few extra bits and pieces [...]
