Hi friends. I am not doing a full post today, but I wanted to write something. I felt drawn to the notion that I am off for Labor Day. I recognize that there are indeed laborers who work on said holiday, which further piqued my interest and desire to explore the nature of the day.… Continue reading A Labor Day of Love.

Today’s post is going to be very subtle and nuanced as it fits like a puzzle piece to yesterday’s post. I chatted a bit yesterday about the way in which we interact with our people when we are harmed or suffering. I believe firmly in the idea of sharing but also, being mindful of what… Continue reading Friendship isn’t a dumping ground.

I wrote a post a while ago about how hurt people hurt people. It’s real. It happens all the damn time. We’ve all done it in some respect. Some folks are more offensive and egregious than others, but it’s a very common situation. Benign example? I’m grumpy so I snap at someone else. Insane example?… Continue reading Unfair Sharing.

I have no control over people’s behavior and for that reason, I have no control over my suffering. Classic a plus b situation, amiright? I’ve prattled on endlessly about the concept of other people’s behavior and our complete lack of control in that domain. It’s just a simple fact. There are obvious exceptions, but most… Continue reading Own Your Sh*t.

Hiya. I’ve talked about this so many times, but literally every day, I am faced with examples of the next point on the list I made yesterday. Our entire world right now is a living, breathing example of the idea that people always need someone or something where they can displace responsibility for their harm.… Continue reading It’s not my fault…

I was talking to my mother about something that happened at work. I was extremely frustrated by a lack of consideration and was having difficulty troubleshooting next steps. She patiently informed me that my spinning out was unbelievably harmful to me and no one else. I responded that I understood that, but after we hung… Continue reading Don’t you care?

If you’ve followed along with me for any period of time, you might know the last episode that I’m going to touch on this week. I know, that seems pretty ambiguous, but it’s an important part of my story. It’s why I started this blog. To heal myself. From one of the most damaging and… Continue reading F’n Post-it.

In "Where There’s Smoke …" (Season 3, Episode 1), the ladies meander over to Staten Island where Carrie is tasked with judging the NYFD annual male calendar finalist selection. There’s all sorts of fun shit sprinkled into this episode but what I really found fascinating was the overarching theme, as follows: do women all want… Continue reading Rescue me? Actually, don’t.

Everyone loved the Carrie and Big storyline, because, who doesn’t love a fated couple story? What they don’t usually like to recall is that whole pesky business of Big’s marriage to Natasha in Season 3. Another woman? How dare he! The nerve. The heartbreak.  If you are indeed a SATC fan, you might know where I’m going… Continue reading Battery Operated Devices.

Hi there.  I thought I’d try to hit on a few different seasons. What do you think? Good? Good. It occurred to me that some of you may not have ever watched SATC. I’m not going to peer pressure you or anything but some of what I talk about may be lost here. I’m going to… Continue reading SATC- Day 2
