Afterthought

Tuesday, January 17th, 2012

My exes never seem to be very far from me and the realization, the reminder, gives me pause. A few weeks ago I received a text from a phone number that was like a ghost whispering in my ear, “Remember me? Thought you’d quite forgotten?” The strangest thing about this particular text is that I [...]

The Dream is Dead

Wednesday, November 2nd, 2011

I’d been saving the bottle. It was special. Something I’d hoped to drink for a special occasion. A celebration. Nothing poignant, nothing bittersweet. Just simply, happy. But the months passed and there it sat, nearly forgotten. And, life went on and nothing much, nothing good anyway, happened. The bottle became a fixture of the crisper [...]
