When I was a kid and I used to complain about how it appeared as though someone had it better or easier, I was encouraged to have an appreciation for what I have and not worry so much about others. That’s not to say I was told to disregard others, but envy and greed were… Continue reading Just worry about you…

Did anyone watch ‘The Mare of Easttown’? Everyone? If you haven’t, I highly recommend that you give it a spin. Don’t worry. I’m not about to drop a spoiler. I will share with you that a pervasive theme in the show is forgiveness. I know, I talk about forgiveness a good deal. Or at least… Continue reading Time Heals Some Wounds. Only Some.

I wasn’t going to write today. I decided that I was going to put pen to paper (or fingers to keyboard) when the spirit moved me and I wasn’t sure if that day was today. Then, I started a brief messaging conversation with a friend about Shelby Houlihan. Let me start with a few points… Continue reading The Baddest Burrito.

OMGAWSH. Hi. I missed this. I’m sorry I’ve been MIA for so long (ish). I had something that I really wanted to do and I recognized that my attention span and available free time needed to be set aside for that purpose. I did it though. I did what I set out to do. Actually,… Continue reading Oh. Hi.

Hi. I'm taking a break. It's for a good reason. A great reason. A giant writing project kind of great. Please bear with me. Please hang in. Please come back. Please put good vibes for me out into the universe. Please. Thank you. xx L.

I feel a bit tired today. The same way I imagine you must be feeling after being pummeled by my emotional recounting of the early years. I’ve said this before and I’m going to say it again. I think it’s important that we revisit what’s gone on in our lives, not as a mechanism for… Continue reading B.G. (Before Google).

I would absolutely love to tell you that I drew a line in the sand and told Vinny under no uncertain terms I was done with our shenanigans. I didn’t. That never happened. Instead, I was just sort of left. Not even in a dramatic way. More in a fade into the darkness kind of… Continue reading But I’m a creep.

I lightly touched on the point that a high school connection didn’t have a clue that Vinny and I were ever involved. I’m not sure that I mentioned her close connection to Vinny. They were friends in high school. Close friends really. So when I read her text message whereas she disclaimed knowledge that there… Continue reading Supersucker.

I’m not moving completely away from the Vinny storyline. I am making a brief rest stop elsewhere, but it is related and relevant and necessary. We have this saying in my family: “everything before the ‘but’ is bullshit”. I feel confident that the Fisher clan didn’t conceptualize this little nugget, but they certainly get credit… Continue reading Everything before the but…

I introduced you to Mike last go around. Maybe that feels far away for you because that was Friday and today is Monday and you did a whole bunch of shit in between. I recognize the feasibility of that feeling. Even though weekends look different these days, I do still have many a moment where… Continue reading The Magnets – Part I.
