2022-01-05 Decisions Can Be Difficult but Sometimes the Path is Clear
I fielded an email yesterday that I initiated with the counselors at my son’s school. I had asked about the possibility of him dropping Algebra 3 for the second semester. He’s a senior and has one semester left before graduation. Their response asked if we’d considered the consequences. He’d no longer be eligible for most…

2021-12-29 In What Universe is it OK…
… that the answer to the question “Do you like pizza?” is different than the answer to the question “Do you eat pizza?”?! The answer to the question is that in no Universe is it OK (unless you have some health reason not to). I am surrounded by people who can’t eat things. Gluten intolerance,…

2021-11-04 Signs of Change
Lately it is so strange that each day feels nothing like the day before. One would think that at my age, shit would start being more predictable. Predictable like.. boring and comfortable. But ohhhhh those mood swings and ahhhhh that unpredictability. One night I get a great night’s sleep and the next night sucks ass.…

2021-10-09 Where to Begin… ✍🏻
I forget what day it is. I wonder why I’m still here. I fail to find what I’m looking for. Some days I get upset thinking about how many years I wasted working for the man, living that picket fence life, and not wanting anything more than I had. Other days I second guess that…

2021-09-25 Happy FIVE-OHHH Bro! 🎉🚀🌕
Today I’m walking to try and rid myself of a headache that was probably induced by too much to drink at dinner last night. Some cocktail with a clever name I can’t recall. I suppose if it was really clever I’d remember it. 🤷♀️ After two of those I switched to amaretto sours which have…

2021-09-12 Twenty Years
I didn’t write anything yesterday. I didn’t spend too much time thinking about nine eleven either except little discussions and rememberances that popped up in the course of conversations with Jim. Where he was. Where I was. How he had a one year old son and I had my first child on the way. He…

2021-08-11 Happy Birthday Erika 🎂
Days like today I think about all the memories I’ve made with friends who are not in my life anymore. A baseball game I went to for a new friend’s birthday when I was 12 where we laughed so hard (at what I don’t recall) we cried. Years of pre-Christmas baking sessions and ornament exchanges.…

2021-07-22 California Adventure Day 0: No Love for San Fran (But Big Love for My Z) ❤️
San Francisco and I have a storied past. In all honesty, if it were up to me, I wouldn’t visit again. I’m not really a fan. I think the city is overrated and don’t quite understand the appeal. Am I not cultured enough or hip enough to “get it?” Perhaps. But arriving yesterday I was…
