    2021-01-02 Flip the Day… 🤸

    If you flip the script on this day.. this date… the palindrome enthusiasts find a different day just over 10 years ago. 2010-12-02.  Where was I early in December in the year 2010?  I know this was shortly after I met a person who would change the trajectory of my life. By that time I…

    2021-01-01 Hurry Up and Wait ⏰

    Or.. It’s About Time. Two days ago I started writing about something that dissolved into a rant about titles and hierarchy and how disgruntled I felt after not being recognized for my contribution in an effort I’ve worked on and care deeply about. I ran out of time while writing and was subsequently told to…

    2020-12-30 Final MFA Day 2: Gathering All the Internets

    I’ve gathered all the internet in the house that I could do as to try to get a good signal in a more isolated location. Maybe I should put the cable modem, WiFi router, and signal boosters in my car and drive away.  Never mind that. There’s a giant snow pile behind my car and…

    2020-12-29 Final MFA Day 2: Snowmageddon Anyone?

    It’s like 2020 is holding the mic, refusing to let go.. saying “I’m not done yet bitches!”  All the living under the rock life and blissful denial that I use to shield myself from what goes on in the world outside my door can’t protect me from the apparent snowmageddon that is now “pouring like…

    2020-12-28 Final MFA Res Day 1: Jump In

    Here’s where journaling almost every day comes in especially handy. Throughout my MFA I have documented my experiences including a day-by-day account of each of my residencies, both official and unofficial. This makes comparing the virtual experience an easy task. Being at home, though kind of a drag, has definite advantages.  Normally waking up on…

    2020-12-27 Final Countdown…

    There have been nights I’ve tossed and turned in my bed, unable to sleep for the thoughts in my head. Playing and re-playing a scene that was years, months, and weeks in the future. I may sound melodramatic but I’m sure as hell not exaggerating. I’ve been thinking about the lecture I have to give…

    2020-12-26 Soooo Ready

    Having recently run out of episodes of my favorite, albeit old news, comedy series on Hulu, The Mindy Project, I had stopped watching anything altogether.  It was the one show I watched alone. You know, folding laundry or eating lunch by myself on weekdays. All the other shows we watch, we watch as a couple…

    2020-12-25 Merry Efffin Christmas

    It’s a mood. It’s not necessarily a bad mood or a good mood. It’s just a mood. Christmas. Whatever. Yesterday I kinda said efff it to stuff and did what I wanted. I had said previously that what would be good was a repeat of thanksgiving. Just us here at the house having fun. No…
