Hi there. Welcome to...not Monday. Shall we continue? Okay, we have a paintbox that’s missing a color. So what? So what or more like oh, that sucks big time? Well, I guess that depends on your general and overall outlook. Right? Are you more flexible or less so? You know what I’m asking you, don’t… Continue reading THE Straw.

A friend of mine recently taught a virtual paint and sip. You know what that is, right? It’s where you drink some wine (or whatever you care to imbibe) and lay some generic image down on a canvas, under the careful guided instruction of a “teacher”. Anyway, when I asked him how it went, he… Continue reading Work in Regress.

Hi. Are we frustrated yet? I hope not. I do find that when I’ve broached this topic with friends, they get a little touchy. I get it. I do. It’s hard to deal with. We talk so much about being real and being the most authentic version of ourselves, but most of us don’t even… Continue reading A List of Truths.

Do you think that we got off track last time? We didn’t, but I can understand if you feel that way. Maybe you didn’t or don’t. Maybe you are used to my style and you have some sense of where I was going when I went a bit off trail last post. Remember that I… Continue reading Who are you, really?

I was talking with a friend last night about my writing. Not this writing per se (though certainly this ‘counts’). The writing that I’ve been doing for a class I was taking. I’ve been writing about my relationships. Not the 10,000 foot narrative. Nope. The nitty gritty, granular shit. I’ve been getting deep into the… Continue reading Blurred Lines.

Whenever a relationship has ended for me or is on the brink of ending or changing in a material way, I find myself incredibly anxious. I don’t just think about the short-term implications of that situation, but of what all of it is going to feel like in the future. I know what you might… Continue reading Two Feet In.

Christine D’Ercole is an absolutely incredibly Peloton instructor. Her classes are challenging but that’s not what I like best about her. You know what it is? Her authenticity. Her encouragement. Her honesty. I know you might be rolling your eyes right about now but I assure you, I’ve attended MANY an exercise class and I’m… Continue reading Inauthentically Authentic.

I feel like I am going to start waxing poetically about gratitude and several of you are going to feel frustrated for so many reasons. I get it though, but I’m still not going to back down. I’m still not going to give up and I’m still not going to let you off the hook.… Continue reading SAY THANK YOU.

Here is what I know, we can’t all determine how close we live to work. Thus, the idea that a shorter commute will bring about joy can be a little irksome for many of us. Like sure, I’d love to live closer to work, but I have the job I have and I live where… Continue reading Driving the Point Home.

David Lynch once said “the thing about meditation is: you become more and more you.” I love this because this has been my exact experience. I loathe categorizing people, but I’ve found that folks typically fall into three camps when it comes to meditation, as follows: (i) they love meditation and do it all the… Continue reading Ommmmmmmmmm.
