Is the week over yet?

I’ll be perfectly honest. The fact that it is only Wednesday is absolutely mind-boggling to me. Like. This is some amazing revelation that this week has lasted what feels like 100 years, and we’re just getting over the middle of it. There was some sort of karmic retribution for what a good week last weekContinue reading “Is the week over yet?”

Rabbit Holes

I’ve fallen down a strange rabbit hole. It’s happened before, but usually, it will pass after a day. I’ve been rather obsessively reading about murderers, kidnappings, and unsolved crimes. I’ve actually learned about new ones that really. They aren’t new. But in my own little bubble, I had not heard of them before. The unsolvedContinue reading “Rabbit Holes”

Processing. Please wait.

It feels like for months now, every time I sit down to try to write, it’s just about how depressed I am. I am fighting and struggling, every day with these feeling of inadequacies that multiply every time I go to work. Every time I wake up. Every time I let a friend down. IContinue reading “Processing. Please wait.”

Going on to 2018, with a brief look back on 2017

When this uploads, it’ll be January 1st. I spent a good portion of time examining the different tools and aspects of WordPress. Something I should have done years ago but never actually bothered because I am actually the worst. This past year has been a rollercoaster. I did so much. I gained so much. AndContinue reading “Going on to 2018, with a brief look back on 2017”

Memories and Loss

My grandmother, Carol Ann Duefrene, passed away on December 2, 2017, at 12:40 in the morning. I am not okay. I’m pretty good at pretending to be okay, but I can’t with this. I am going through the motions that you are supposed to do for living life and moving on. I have continued toContinue reading “Memories and Loss”

A Do/Do Not list of going to Confession

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”

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”
