dogs or cats

Logging onto my computer today, I had a different plan in my head then telling this tale. Then there was a writing prompt, one that I laughed off yesterday with a simple thought of “what kind of feature is this, a silly one that’s for sure” and with that thought 24 hours later I am […]

tik tok, tik tok

On the morning of my 33rd birthday I peeled my eyes open not to a slew of happy birthday messages or notifications about successfully making this trip around the sun but rather to news headlines about the school shooting in Texas.

Please dear God, do not get sick. Shit, what about Mom and Dad? What happens if something happens with them? I […]

the house of cards is falling

I had the perfect plan of this I was sure. With the negative test in my hand and a wily scheme in my head the game was on. Only a total of four people knew that I was coming, and it was to stay that way. I would arrive mid-day after a non-stop flight (where […]

upside down && inside out

It has been a while, why yes it has. Why you ask? Because COVID fatigue is a real thing. I swear it. I have been so busy trying to find some sort of balance in this ever so dizzying world I just haven’t had the time to jot things down. Here and there I will […]
