May 1st, 2020 “For the first 35 years of my life, I was a bit player. …When the time came, I knew I had to be more.” – Dolores Abernathy, this week’s episode of Westworld It’s my party, and I’ll cry if I want to. 😂 If you don’t want to watch 7 delightful minutesContinue reading “One More Thank You, How To Read A Comic Book, It’s Release Day & My Birthday!”

Squirrel Life
April 30th, 2020 I’ve been asked about my obsession with squirrels, and I have to say: it’s everything. The aesthetic. The personality. The community. The particular and peculiar ways they create uncontrollable chaos in a world that demands control. But the biggest thing is their lesson. Every day, somewhere, a squirrel decides to cross aContinue reading “Squirrel Life”
Purple Rain
April 21st, 2020 Four years ago, something sad happened. Something crazy happened. Something amazing happened. Four years ago, Prince passed away. I miss that dude. Especially as I remember today. His fearless and peerless innovation. His boundless talent. His pancake-making skills (which I never had the pleasure of eating but I have HEARD, man). FourContinue reading “Purple Rain”
Sober Distancing
April 11th, 2020 This is a shout out to my beautiful peeps who are dealing with the same stuff that we’re all dealing with, but also doing it sober. We live in a world (and social media climate) that actively promotes and adamantly believes in the idea that to get through things — big thingsContinue reading “Sober Distancing”
A Nut is a Circle
April 2nd, 2020 I’m always saying it: the universe is too strange and too perfect to be random. I just had to go on a grocery store run, and there at Target, I ran into Eric. You would be easily excused if you don’t know who Eric is. But if you do know, you wouldContinue reading “A Nut is a Circle”
&
March 24th, 2020 The word “duly” means importantly. And I think it’s important that we remember or realize that people are made up of “and”s. Not blacks and whites and “or”s, but a spectrum of color, and the grays that exist between them. I spent a lot of time thinking about this post. I wantContinue reading “&”
Thank You.
March 17th, 2020 Weird world. I was waiting until I could write something thoughtful and meaningful about everything that has happened over the last few days, and then I realized that waiting for anything is stupid, so here we are. First of all: thank you. I say thank you a lot, and I mean itContinue reading “Thank You.”
Look
March 10th, 2020 When you’re gripped by a dark thing, common wisdom dictates that you should take a look in the mirror. Stare into the eyes of who you are and what you’ve become to reach an mutual understanding. For me, the recognition and clarity never came through a mirror. It comes through photographs. PicturesContinue reading “Look”
Home & Garden
February 19th, 2020 The other night over dinner, we were having a conversation that led into how I uncomfortably deal with specific kinds of attention. It’s something that I have thought about for years, but had never really put into words until now. When I quit drinking in 2017, I quickly lost somewhere between twentyContinue reading “Home & Garden”
Don’t Make Me Sing
February 17th, 2020 Every time I see a show, I’m reminded that I used to make music, and that I miss it sometimes. If you don’t know, I started making music as The Next Step back in 2003. I started with EPs and sporadic song releases, until I released my first full-length, “Something Old, SomethingContinue reading “Don’t Make Me Sing”
