I wish I drank. There are days when I think that a little shot of vodka in the morning java might do me a world of good. This self-imposed rule of not drinking when stressed out sometimes sucks, especially when I seem to live in that state most of the time. The Tween Years. This […]
Time flies… It's been more than a month since I last blogged. I had been good about blogging regularly, but I needed to take a bit of a step back, I guess. I have been taking a bit of a social media hiatus, light on the blogging, light on the Facebook. I have been kind […]
This has been an illuminating weekend, even if I spent most of it tethered to textbooks and my laptop. It started with a post from Dominee of Blessing Manifesting, whom I adore. The girl, while well over a decade younger than me, is one of the wisest and kindest souls I have ever met. And […]

It is almost 2pm and my right eye still feels as if I have been tortured by bamboo shoot-wielding sadists. All around my tear duct. It throbs and there are occasional shooting pains as if those nasty little sadists are pushing those shoots in deeper, all while giggling maniacally. Fantastic. Of course, by this point, […]
