2022-02-13 The One About Memory and Time. And Rocks… 🪨
I think about time quite a bit, and about memory too. I think about an hourglass glued to the table; the lyric of a song stuck in my mind for a lifetime. I can’t escape the curve of it, the gravity, the sensation of something you can’t really hold on to that’s slipping away. I’ve…

2022-01-04 On Tuesday’s I Take Out the Trash
I’d love to say I do it for alliteration’s sake because something deep in me is enchanted by the sounds of words that just fit together in my mouth in a pleasing and natural way. But I take out the trash on Tuesday because Wednesday is the day the Man comes to haul it away. …

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,…

2021-06-26 After the Storm there is Calm
I’ve once again navigated the sea of emotions my monthly cycle often laps over me in waves.

My mantra? “Wait a few days and see what…

The explanation for my reactive result is that I have antibodies consistent with a person who has had the COVID vaccine, but did not…

2021-02-17 Having an Out-of-Body Without Ever Leaving My Body
It’s another random ordinary Wednesday and there’s once again not a single noteworthy thing I have to contribute. Not a thought in my head worthy of writing about for the gazilllionth time. Late yesterday I ingested some citrus ginseng fizz I bought from a newish acquaintance of mine whose business is selling these Earth friendly…

2021-02-11 A Quick Trip on the Memory Train
I’m walking. I’m walking. I’ve got nothing today. A full set list of stuff to get done today while I’m stranded at home. Jeep won’t start again and is parked at Jim’s office. He took my car to work today. It’s ok because it’s the first day of my period (cuz I know you wanted…

2021-01-04 MFA Graduation Day 💃💃🎉
It’s about time. It’s about endings and beginnings, direction, voice, responsibility, and resolution. Or at least it wants to be. Aspiration, experience, and discovering what life is trying to teach you. I mean me. When i say “you” I mean “me”. When I say “we” I also mean “me”. We’re all self centered. Humans. All…
