I keep catching myself thinking and saying the oddest things. Things you’re not “supposed” to own up to. Things you’re “supposed” to push down and ignore, pretend never happened, never existed. But, they persist… We used to live in that building… My ex wore a scarf just like that when we first met… I had [...]

Last year around this time, around this very day in fact, I made a decision that has changed my life each day since. I adopted Wendy. I’d been wanting a dog for nearly a decade, but finally decided to make my lifestyle fit dog ownership rather than wait for it to happen as if by [...]

I’ve been getting a lot of well-meaning, if not entirely necessary, sympathy of late. True, my personal life kind of went the way of UTTER SADNESS earlier this year, but I’m actually okay. When I find my thoughts turning to him and to what happened, I find myself confounded more than anything else. I don’t [...]

Everyone always says that change is a good thing. That it’s inevitable. Happens whether we like it, whether we want it, or not. Change is an opportunity. Maybe. But what about when you force change? What about when you really want change to happen, so much so that you make it happen? What then? No [...]

Thirty….as in 30!…did not shape up to be my parent’s “30.” Unsurprisingly, so far neither has 31. Not that I’m complaining. Because I’m not.

Last weekend, I threw together a little meet up for some local bloggers, many of whom I’ve been reading for years and had yet to meet in person!

Five years. Last week, though (like the bad little blogger I’ve been lately) I only just realized, marked five years for me as a blogger.
