In the past week…. I avoided being in a 6 car collision on the 405 Finally got to try a nibble of Randy’s Donuts and it did not disappoint Said goodbye to my sister Bee who went back to Japan. Arrivals are the best. Departures? Not so much. Had a solo trip to the Getty […]
A pot of many ingredients… Every Sunday morning I *usually* find myself sitting at my desk with a fresh cup of coffee, reading the weekly update from PostSecret. I have done this for years now and it’s become an integral part to my Sunday morning. And no, I have never sent one in… although if […]
So let me tell you about something that happened the other day. You know those days where you’re overtly self critical and overall down on yourself? Well, I was having one. Welcome to the world of the anxious mind, where even the smallest thing can send you down the spiral of over-critical thought. I have […]
The hits arrive, usually on weekends. They come in all shapes and sizes and can feel anywhere from a faint scratch to what I have to imagine a sledgehammer to the ribcage would feel like. They come when I don’t want them to. Or, they come when you know they will and every one will […]

Over-thinker zone: Have you ever wondered why fingernails and toenails are perfectly ok until you lop them off your body and all of a sudden they’re totally revolting? I have. Papaya is disgusting. I blame the smell and those weird, furry […]
I don’t know how many times I have to say this to myself but I find myself having to do it, yet AGAIN. Relationships involve work and effort from all parties involved. Both people. Not one doing everything while the other just receives. Not one doing all the reaching while the other does all the […]
It is so fucking beautiful outside. I can’t. Actually, I can. I’m ready for real Spring, not this crazy weather bone throwing of 70 in the middle of Winter whatnot. Butterflies, breezes and bees. I’m ready. Josh took off to Kansas City to see his family yesterday. He went into the tundra, forgot his shampoo […]
Four times. That is how many times I wrote in my blog last year. Four. Times. I went back and read my whopping recap of a year, it didn’t take long and it’s sad to me that I didn’t take the time to share throughout my year. Well, I did on the fb vortex and […]
