Going to turn this frown upside down. Life is moving on with or without me. Jumping on that train.
I don’t give a crap about the holidays anymore. So much else in the way. Ugh.
I Watch myself change. And watch others change. And hope the changes make sense. Eventually spinning in circles turns to fun. or nausea. Waiting to see.

“Pain is a part of life. Sometimes it’s a big part, and sometimes it isn’t, but either way, it’s a part of the big puzzle, the deep music, the great game. Pain does two things: It teaches you, tells you that you’re alive. Then it passes away and leaves you changed. It leaves you wiser, sometimes. Sometimes it leaves you stronger. Either way, pain leaves its mark, and...
I wish deciding who to keep in your life was as easy as cleaning out your closet. But unfortunately, clothes do not have feelings. or an emotional past with you. However, both are chosen by what makes you feel good.
This type of thought is naturally fueled by a separation that is seeming to linger as long as the stench of microwaved pigs feet. (What’s up 2523)
A year ago I was so upset of...

Some nights I have nothing to talk about because I feel so empty.
I think it is important to acknowledge that. but a smile and brushing your hair never hurts
After my brief introductory love affair with Crossfit, I have already had to put it on hold. This has taken me a solid week to comprehend, but i’m bummed. I can’t afford the monthly payments after opening the third and fourth medical bills that have crippled me this year. After spending plenty of time mad, annoyed, and feeling like I don’t deserve them, I made the more...
I have always had some social misunderstandings. I like to go out, but I would rather be at home. But then again, why wouldn’t I with the home I have. I have friends who share my love for peaceful nights. Friends who gladly spend the afternoon with me in my apartment without it feeling like a childhood play date- trapped inside, longing for a car.
My home creates a beautiful backdrop for a...
It is 3am and I am still wide awake.
This would not be a problem if my alarm was set for any hour other than 5:30am.
Perfect time to blog in my quiet apartment that has been filled with activity the past few days. Surprisingly with all the bizarre things that have happened this week, I have no real concrete feelings about everything. All I know is my mind is on my weird wave-length. and that an...

I watched this little video on the Mast Brothers today before baking. I enjoy chocolate when I eat it, but it is not a food I crave. This video really made me want chocolate. I don’t think it was that I wanted to taste it, It was that I wanted to feel something when I ate their product. Feel the passion that went into it. It seems so silly that people can be so passionate about things...

So i have this thing about bed and breakfasts’.
I don’t know if it is their inviting front porches, predictability of tea and smiles, no two rooms being the same, the stories from the owners, a nice warm breakfast, lace, the mysteriousness of what has gone on in the room, or looking through the guest-books.
but regardless, I love them.
While I was out walking today (mental health...

Crossfit.
“I’ve heard it’s a great workout, but the people that do it think they are gods”
My dear friend Zach, who is into fitness way more than I am, said the above words when I told him what I was about to embark on. I laughed at these words and then really began to wonder what it would be like to be overconfident.
I am totally ok with the possibility of it.
