i can feel the change coming. the days are still too warm, but the nights are bringing out sweaters and light scarves. and i’m ready, so ready to end this summer of sweltering heat, and this all-consuming let down of a season. i’m not wishing these days away, because sandwiched between the not-so niceties are [ READ MORE ]
she’s been hanging onto walls. with palms out, she’s been treading tables, chairs, and anything else she could grab onto for months now. she gingerly moves her feet to the side and brings the other one back to where it belongs, and she goes on and on and on, until – NO! no more, and [ READ MORE ]
we are so over. i’m so over the uncomfortable temperatures, even early in the morning. i’m so over the humidity wreaking havoc on my hair, my skin, my general sense of comfort. i’m so done with leaving the house looking one way, and returning not too much later looking as if i were dunked in [ READ MORE ]
i sat down to write something, then closed my eyes for a moment. and then i was asleep. funny, that. when i was younger i suffered, (and i well and truly mean that i suffered) a mean case of insomnia. it was somewhere between my second and third year at university. somewhere in-between where things [ READ MORE ]

i’m unkind. not generally speaking, i’m actually rather accommodating, i can, at times, also be something damn near ebullient. i’m-happy-to-help-here-to-please-and-anything-you-might-need-just-let-me-know-because-i’m-here-for-you! i’m pretty much willing to help anyone, anyone but myself. after 34 years, i’m still last on the list, and still after 34 years, i’m not sure why. and it’s hard to keep reminding myself [ READ MORE ]
i really have to stop posting before i go to bed. when it gets this late in the day i come off all brooding, dark and just plain sad, (read: pathetic). and really, i’m not so much that. well, sometimes, sure, sure i am – but, most of the time i’m pretty okay. and although, [ READ MORE ]
even though my sunday is a monday – it still feels just like any other end to the weekend. i’m south of sleepy, and i’m going to have to make a u-turn back upstairs sometime soon, but the end to weekend, whether it be a two-day or a three-day, these evenings before the start of [ READ MORE ]
there are teeth, and then there is one tooth. there is being able to see through clear eyes, and know that a bias remains as well. there is a face of a child, and then there is the face of yours. and that’s when you realize that sometimes, very rarely, but sometimes, when you’ve been [ READ MORE ]
