I never thought I’d be in this position. The last month of my life has been the strangest whirlwind of physical and emotional debris and I never thought it would happen to me. But it did. Let me take you back to July 3rd. I was at work, and I was feeling a little off.Continue reading “My Abortion Story”

Betrayed by my Body (Again)
Yes, another tale of woe from a thirty-something about how a body part keeps breaking. Sometimes, things break. You can either glue it back together, or replace the thing with something new. Well, it’s hard to do that with a part of your body. Like, when I herniated a disc in my back, I couldn’tContinue reading “Betrayed by my Body (Again)”
That Time I Met an Energy Vampire
I’m the type of person who likes to be open to the possibilities of existence. That is kind of a vague statement. What I mean is, if you tell me something that sounds completely off the wall, but you tell me with sincerity and conviction, I will believe you. I may be skeptical, but IContinue reading “That Time I Met an Energy Vampire”
A Reminder: Your Inner Child Needs a Hug
I’ve been dealing with some anxiety lately, and I easily waved it off and blamed it on being worried about my family or THE NEWS… And when I say I have been dealing with anxiety, this is what it looks like – it’s hyper-fixating and staring at the physical things that are making me insecure,Continue reading “A Reminder: Your Inner Child Needs a Hug”
The Rage II
I am full of anger. I am full of despair. Fear. Hopelessness. Frustration and a sort of…. powerlessness. Like my hands are tied behind my back and I’m just screaming but no one can hear me. Obviously this has been a really shitty week in a really shitty several years in America. I am desperatelyContinue reading “The Rage II”
Dating Sux II
Dating with anxiety is so lame. The lamest. I know most people probably get nervous when meeting a new person for the first time, but holy shit. So, I mentioned before, I didn’t date a whole ton in my youth – too much self-doubt, not enough confidence in myself – being an invisible person wasContinue reading “Dating Sux II”
2021 is OVER
While I sit here trying to process the news of Betty the White’s death, I thought maybe I should just try to sum up the year while I’m at it. We lost Betty White today. She was an absolute legend in entertainment. She was hilarious, groundbreaking, and all in unassuming sweet packaging. That was partContinue reading “2021 is OVER”
Dating Sux
The Starfish Hi, I’m in my late 30’s and I just joined the world of online dating for the first time ever. Some things about me: I’m am painfully introverted and meeting people is hard. Thanks, I hate it. I haven’t dated a lot. Dating was a disaster in my early 20’s and then IContinue reading “Dating Sux”
Home
It’s probably obvious if you know me or have been following up with me for a bit that I am in a phase of transition and have been for a few years. There are growing pains for sure, but I am a caterpillar who is trying to claw and wiggle my way out of aContinue reading “Home”
Imposter Syndrome
My inner saboteur is louder than anything else right now. I was in a room full of people and she had me convinced that I am an imposter, a fraud. I don’t belong there. I am unworthy. No one wants to know this person (me). I don’t even want to know her. She belongs noContinue reading “Imposter Syndrome”
