My grandmother, Laller, passed away on December 2. It’s been hard. There’s a bigger entry in the works of me processing, and my favorite story with her in her prime. But this is a thing I am dealing with. Poorly. One of her requests was a full Mass service. I grew up Catholic. I’ve sinceContinue reading “A Do/Do Not list of going to Confession”

Not Enough
I’m not Mexican enough. I don’t speak Spanish. I don’t eat spicy foods because I can’t tolerate spice that well. My skin is too pale. I have very little accent to my voice. I don’t dance. I don’t sing. I have no rhythm. I have too much love for Pumpkin Spice. And Trader Joe’s BaasContinue reading “Not Enough”
I’ve been in my new home for a little over a week. I’m mostly moved in – just the odd bits and ends left to gather and bring over from the old place. I’m simultaneously happier and stressed out like I haven’t been. I needed this move. For so many reasons, I needed this move. TheContinue reading
Operation Secret Project
It’s a go. It’s happening. And since a lot of people know about it (read, everyone in my personal life knows). It doesn’t need to be a *secret* project. I’m moving out of my parent’s home next Thursday. I’m going to be living with a roommate, but on my own for truthfully the first timeContinue reading “Operation Secret Project”
Word Vomit
I’ve spent the past week cat sitting at one of my friend’s place. The cats are adorable, and one lets me rub its belly. And the other is mistrustful of me, doesn’t let me touch her, and tries, in general, to not be too close to me. I feel like the second cat. Last weekContinue reading “Word Vomit”
The Annual Bash
For the past seven years, there has been the Bash. The Bash takes place over President’s Day weekend, Saturday through Monday. There is a theme set. Food is decided. A movie is picked. And the party commences. The first Bash I remember was the Ulitmate Zelda Bash. We played and beat through as many ofContinue reading “The Annual Bash”
February Blues
When I started writing this entry, I was sitting at Tortilla Joe’s restaurant in the Downtown Disney District, taking myself on a much needed me date. This year is going by so fast. It’s kind of unbelievable. A lot has happened. To start, I have a temporary job. I am a data entry technician workingContinue reading “February Blues”
An update, of sorts
I got hit by five birds earlier today. At least, my car did. It’s okay. I’m okay. Most of the birds are okay (as in they flew away – one, however, didn’t make it). But I’ll be damned if I don’t live an interesting life. It’s something my friends have commented on several times. AContinue reading “An update, of sorts”
Looking Forward and Back
I’ve had about 4 things in my drafts now for the past couple months. I don’t know why I never just posted them, but I didn’t and now their gone because if I was going to actually do something with those words I would have already. It’s the last day of 2016. Thank the godsContinue reading “Looking Forward and Back”
A splurge of thoughts
It’s the start of a new semester, and I feel jittery. Though, to be perfectly fair I am not sure it’s the fact that I am starting a new school today’s fault. My anxiety levels have been a lot higher than normal due to some severe bullshit and shenanigans that I don’t want to goContinue reading “A splurge of thoughts”
