Hi there. Welcome to your weekend edition of what the holy fuck is going on in the United States. You may want to stop reading at this exact moment if it makes you squeamish to be very honest about the current state of affairs. Perhaps you are someone who prefers to live blissfully disconnected. I… Continue reading Sorbet Time.

I recently had a discussion with some of my people about the nature of love. There was a thought floated that unrequited love, or love without equality is not really love. I challenged that notion when presented. How else can unrequited love be a thing? What about the ever shifting (or more heavily weighted in… Continue reading Love is NOT all you need.

Hello again. I was reading or watching something the other day (I know, sorry- blame the overabundance of content or something) and one of the characters said the following: “What am I going to do with a soul anyway? Souls are boring.” It might have been Succession. Feels very Succession-y, no? I’m not certain though,… Continue reading How DO you sleep at night?

I recently went to the doctor. I’m not going to get into any nitty gritty here. Well, actually, I might. A little. Less because I have a burning desire to reveal my deeply personal shit with you and more because it helps paint the picture that I want to convey.I’ve been having, well, issues (I… Continue reading Powerless.

Hi. I want to start exploring a topic that’s pretty damn important to me. Like much of what I write, it begins with a story. An old story, but a goodie. And by a goodie, I mean a baddie. I remember the day so vividly. It’s the kind of memory you want to reserve for… Continue reading I am deeply connected to bullies.

I woke up today thinking I would feel better. Somehow, the events of yesterday, and the day(s) before, would have settled into place and I would have some sort of….game plan? That didn’t happen and I don’t feel that way, at all. Instead, I am left feeling saltier. Punchier. I have a ‘the world is… Continue reading Bark up another tree.

I had a topic in mind for this evening. And then I was sent an article about the smear campaign launched at The Trevor Project. And then, I shifted gears. And then I heard the rumor about the overturn of Roe v. Wade. And then, I shifted gears again. And then, I realized I had… Continue reading Accessories.

Did you have a good laugh at my expense reading the last line of my prior post? It’s okay. I laughed a little while writing it. I mean, we know I spend a lot of time in my own head. Right? An extraordinary amount of time, really. So, it’s best that I clarify. Yes, I… Continue reading Big and Little Falls.

I wish I could tell you that yesterday’s story was a piece of pure fiction. I wish I could tell you that I have a vivid imagination and I was able to imagine that kind of pain and terror. I mean, I’m sure I could, but I don’t have to. It happened to me in… Continue reading Non-fiction Stories.

I was writing with a group recently and we were given what’s called a writing prompt. I might have spoken about this before or perhaps you are familiar on your own. As they often do, each of the prompts offered by the leader of this free write session, triggered something profoundly emotional inside of me.… Continue reading The Fall.
