  • 2018-11-21 The Art of Thinking Differently

    In residency last sumner for my MFA program I attended a lecture where the faculty talked about being an artist and experiencing the world differently. I think she alluded to “seeing”, but I think it applies to all the senses. If you can see the world differently, then you can most certainly hear the world…

  • 2018-11-17 Hey Mr. DJ – What’s Up?

    This morning I woke up around 6 and that would normally be fine, but I didn’t go to bed until close to midnight. That equates to less than 6 hours of good sleep. I was doing great for the week and then, WHAM, it all went down the drain because of one night. In any…

  • 2018-10-23 Smile and Nod

    Or wave or something. Anything. I don’t know. It feels like it’s been ages since I wrote a blog post or journal entry or whatever this is. It’s actually only been a couple of days. I’m not sure if I count Sunday’s cuz those have a predetermined topic and format and I really don’t do…

  • 2018-10-17 Rinse and Repeat

    I might thrive on routine but I’m sort of sick of the current 45 I’m going round and round on. I woke up twice last night, the first time was because I was so congested I could not breathe and the second time I hacked up my second lung. That’s right, I don’t have lungs…

  • 2018-10-10 When the Situation Calls For Chaos (or Poetry, Take Your Pick)

    Strange Times Cats and cats getting along like republicans and democrats, yeah just like that / scratches appear across fingers crossed / keep your arms and legs inside the moving vehicle at all times / it was the worst of times, it was the worst of times / I’m afraid nobody will ever be nostalgic…

  • 2018-10-03 Killer Day

    Talk about the perfect storm yesterday. PMS, high pressure job interview, production issues. I was in the eye of that mess almost all day yesterday and by the time it was almost over I had such a killer headache, I felt like I’d been rolled over by a Mack Truck. I simply could not wind-down…

  • 2018-09-28 Serious Friday Feels

    Everything I was worried about yesterday went great. Every thing that got done made me feel lighter and lighter. I made a space for my morning cardio which I did not think I was going to have time for. ✅ I got my lawn mowed. ✅ I had a difficult conversation with my boss. ✅…

  • 2018-09-27 Lots Of 💩 Today

    Sometimes I’m a chicken shit. It stands to reason because by dad is kind of a chicken shit too. Well, not kind of. He IS a chicken shit. Passive and at times passive aggressive. I would not say I’m passive aggressive, but when it comes to delivering bad news or telling someone no, I will…
