All The Many Thoughts On The Winding Road

Part of me wants to apologize for my distance, while the other part reminds me that I have been through a lot and I don't owe anyone an explanation. I would like to believe most people understand that there's always a reason for my lack of presence. It's hard to believe we are officially into … Continue reading All The Many Thoughts On The Winding Road

Greetings & Returns

Today felt like a decent opportunity to hop on and try to say something of substance. It sounds great in my head, but there are no guarantees for how it flows in front of you. All I am giving for now is effort, which is better than nothing at all on a site I do … Continue reading Greetings & Returns

Wound Up, Fucked Up, and Everything In Between

The days and weeks have, unfortunately, blown by. Many have been incredibly unkind. I rarely know what day it is anymore. But today, it dawned on me how long it had been since I'd updated. I am not going to apologize, because it'll sound like a broken record. None of us wants this. It's annoying, … Continue reading Wound Up, Fucked Up, and Everything In Between

Emotional Support?

At the beginning of last month, my world began to cave in on me.

Don’t Come For What You Don’t Understand

Authors Note: I don't want to write this. It's way too personal, and deeply private, but I feel it is my responsibility to punch this subject matter in the face. I have to speak up. I am omitting the names of the innocent. I am protecting the people I value most. But I'm also speaking … Continue reading Don’t Come For What You Don’t Understand

I Wish I Had Words, But That Isn’t What I’ve Got

It would be great to have words on the fifteenth anniversary of my father's death, but all I've got is anger. Anger, frustration, zero tolerance for bullshit, and absolutely no patience, empathy, or compassion for humanity at large right now. Facts are facts; why sugar coat it?! While this year held many incredible and beautiful … Continue reading I Wish I Had Words, But That Isn’t What I’ve Got
