September 25th, 2020 Someone at my new work asked me tonight if I missed my old work. I have been avoiding this question since March. It’s been asked in abundance and in different keys. And my response is usually an acute tweet that confirms I am fine and it was just a job. But itContinue reading “The Breakup Breakdown”

Around The Fire
September 19th, 2020 Do you ever have a moment when you forget that you’re you? When you do or say something that is completely uncharacteristic of who you are now, but then remember that it used to be a part of who you were? I do. I’ll say something negative. Or I’ll react in anger.Continue reading “Around The Fire”
Lovefool
September 14th, 2020 Our universe is full of systems that help us in the suffering of being human, and only a fool would discount a single one. I’ve mentioned before a series of lectures I’ve been reading, and it’ll be the basis for a lot of the stuff I’ll be writing about. It’s called TheContinue reading “Lovefool”
Season Premiere
September 6th, 2020 When you’ve worked somewhere long enough, you start to develop your own ways to describe what it’s like when your workplace hires new people. I’ve always compared it to watching new seasons of your favorite TV show. Some seasons are better than others. They always have some sense of familiarity to them,Continue reading “Season Premiere”

To outdo myself, I’m also ecstatic to announce that it is available RIGHT NOW. That’s right: I just surprise dropped a brand new book. This is BeyonceContinue reading “Theia”
Whisper of Hope
August 20th, 2020 “What we do reverberates through generations.” I’m not the type to drink the Kool-Aid of any particular brand (you guys, it’s all literally the same drink but they just change the color). I believe in America; not the one we currently live in, but the ideals that were put in place byContinue reading “Whisper of Hope”
What Lasts Does Not Do So On Its Own
August 17th, 2020 As we watch relationships dissolve en masse, for a variety of valid and irrational reasons, I reflect on how they last. (It’s almost like social media has publicly revealed that maybe humans are not meant to be exposed to so many thoughts and opinions all the dang time.) When two people areContinue reading “What Lasts Does Not Do So On Its Own”
Up With Down
August 15th, 2020 A few times in my life, I have discovered something at the exact right moment I need it. Maybe you’ve had similar gifts. A book, or a film, or a poet, or a fan club; art that transcends base entertainment and emotion to help you along a particular path or over anContinue reading “Up With Down”
Plain & Friendly
August 13th, 2020 “He did not want to appear at a loss or to let his followers down. He decided that it would be best to be plain and friendly.” – Watership Down If you ever run into me in real life, this is my goal. I often feel like a let down, or thatContinue reading “Plain & Friendly”
