It’s that time again! New Year, New You! I wrote one last year that said something about resolutions and My feelings about them and honestly I’m not really sure what I said because I’m not going back to reread it. Because that was last year. This is this year. A new year! And I don’t want to go back and read it to figure out what I didn’t do because I know what I didn’t do and I don’t need to see it listed out so I can make excuses. In the big picture, this year and My resolutions look [...]
That Holiday from Last Month or So
I know. No one wants to hear about Halloween anymore. That was so last week and really any Halloweening after November 2nd is obnoxious. Unless it’s 80% off. But I have to post this because: a. I didn’t post it last week b. I’ve been dying to show the world what He wanted to be and how I made it happen c. I haven’t written in some two weeks or more so there’s a lot of catching up to do. He was a pencil sharpener. But not just any pencil sharpener, He was a Sanford Giant! And two photos from [...]
Blame the Bear Family
It seems that all trouble later in life always falls back on a poor male influence. The guy wearing fishnets and a bustier on Springer? His dad left home. The meth addict on Intervention who’s on the edge of death? His dad was a workaholic. The girl you knew in high school who was a “goth”? Her dad was an alcoholic. It’s always dad. Always. And it’s a crock. Maybe I’m bitter because I can’t really blame My dysfunctional nature on My dad. Regardless, it make one wonder “why”? Luckily, I’ve done this wondering already and I can tell you [...]
Not Sure Which Direction
Every so often I tell Her that I’m going to stop blogging. I have a small, though loyal base of readers that I enjoy and respect, but it doesn’t really seem to grow and I hit these moments of frustration where I feel like there’s really no point in writing if only a handful of people read it (but I appreciate that handful. All of you. All the time.). So I tell Her I’m just going to stop, maybe post a photo every so often, maybe not. Blah blah. And She looks at me and says something like BUT you’re [...]
Recap
When the day finally winds down, the last thing I want to do is anything. I want to collapse. I mean, I want to read, I’d like to write a bit, maybe catch a movie, but I’ve been exhaused lately. To accompany that feeling, I’m also caught with a feeling of worthlessness. Thinking WHY am I tired? WHAT did I do today? I thought it would help to write it out for My sake and you get to come along for the ride. Lucky Internet, you. Wake up happy, thinking I’ve beat My alarm, grab My phone only to realize [...]
9/11 and The Lack of Change
I’ve never written about 9/11 before. It will be 10 years tomorrow and with the exception of a brief conversation here or there, I’ve never really talked about it either. I was 17 when it happened. Seventeen and sitting in My AP History class when someone walked into the room and said that a plane hit one of the Twin Towers. No one believed it, we argued for a few minutes, and the bell rang. By the time I made it to My French class, the TV was on and I remember seeing smoke spill from the building. My teacher [...]
