I am a forgetful person in general. Not good with names or faces. But I do remember actions - and kindnesses. Especially when they come from strangers. My best friend and I, wannabe Pokemon masters to this day, bought Pokemon HeartGold and SoulSilver at their time of release. A wise decision, considering how much the … Continue reading The Nice GameStop Lady
This is not where I thought I would be. I am a fortunate person, in general. I fully recognize that. But, at thirty, I am not happy with where I am in my life. It is within my power to change my circumstances, but it is so very hard. When it feels like I have … Continue reading The Ache
the age of thirty, means not the end of youth, but instead, a new start (here's to getting back on track in my thirtieth year)
I was involved with sports for a significant portion of my adolescence. Basketball, soccer, track, and softball. I excelled in two of those (track and soccer) until a career ending knee surgery at age 15, and now I stick to the treadmill.

when the sky grows dark, stars blink to life, the roaring tide comes in, gulls cry out, buoyed by evening winds, shell-hunters scour the sands for fresh wares, letting the hungry waves lick at their toes, the light on the ocean, a fallen fragment of moonshine, reminds us that we are, like hope unsinkable
As strange as it sounds, the start of the pandemic in 2020 marks the last time I read a book. For those who know me well, that's pretty wild. Because in previous years, also documented on this site, I've been able to knock out 100+ books. But I only read 1 or 2 books in … Continue reading Slump
(I usually just jot down my reactions whole watching the Oscars, and this year was no different.... EXCEPT I FORGOT TO POST THIS ON MONDAY. LOL. So here it is many days late.) Ugh, Carey Mulligan's dress. 😍 Gorgeous. Well, the setting is pretty! I actually saw all the short films except documentary this year … Continue reading Mini Oscars Reaction 2021
