A Few of My Favorite Things
Almost every time I set foot in a Barnes and Noble, I have to poop. It’s like clockwork. The smell of books, the muffled conversations, the 2000’s Pop Slow Jams playing in the background. The combination provides a perfect digestive environment. Why am I talking about bowel movements in America’s only surviving bookstore chain? Great…
No Rest for the Weary
A couple times a week, I walk through the neighborhood next to my office. I call my mom, turn on a podcast, or listen to the same song 15 times in a row until I ruin it for myself. “Easy on Me” came out about a month ago and it’s on track to be my…
#Pride
I never liked the term “bisexual”. The first time I heard it used, I was in middle school. On Friday nights, the co-eds from the neighboring middle schools would all gather at the rec center for a night of innocent ice skating, basketball playing, and socializing. At least that what kids told their parents. In…
Naked Day
It’s Junior Year. Spirit Week. I’m deciding what to wear. Your level of participation in a Spirit Week says a lot about you. More about you than where you stand in the lobby or where you park your car. At least those were two tools used to group people at my high school. The popular…
Humble Moments From Your Resident Therapist
Now that we’re 6 weeks into 2021, I finally feel ready to talk about 2020. Well, to be fair, I was “ready” 4 weeks ago but I had to write 9 drafts of this blog before I could post it. Anyway, with everything that happened last year, I needed to move a safe distance away…
30 and Feeling It
There is something very humbling about spending weeks writing what you hope to be both an incredibly moving and humorous take on turning 30, only to open another Word Document titled “Draft 6”, because all 5 other drafts you’ve created left you feeling uninspired, discouraged, and hungry. Only one of those feelings felt familiar. You…
My Call to Action
I have done everything imaginable to avoid writing this blog. I cleaned bathrooms, bedrooms, the kitchen. I wiped down a couple refrigerator shelves. Cleaned my car. Organized my sock drawer. Washed sheets and towels. Ordered a curtain rod from Bed, Bath and Beyond for a set of curtains I purchased 6 months ago. Tuned and…
Quarantine Body
Before I start, I want to give a genuine thank you to anyone and everyone who read my first post. Each “like” and comment means so much to me. And for a person who thrives on the validation of others, there is no better feeling than being complimented. So from the bottom of my heart,…
Hey! Look at Me!
Growing up, I always wanted to be famous. When I was 5 years old, I wasn’t dreaming of becoming a doctor, fire fighter, astronaut, or first female president. Any of those professions would have sufficed if they were void of responsibility and I ended up on TV, but otherwise I had little interest. I wanted…
