Don't live the American dream. Live your dream.

    Had an unbelievably lazy morning. I did get up early, around 6 which I think is my natural time, and munched on some slightly burnt low-fat eggos and a yogurt.  Felt cold.    Went back to bed and snuggled under the covers playing phone games while listening to the birds and the rain. At a… Read more

    Well, today has been kind of a waste. After going with baby brother to his doctor’s appointment this morning (no masks required), I came home.   Worked a bit.   Caught up on my games.   Took a couple hour nap  Watched some cold openings of the BB99 (?) on Youtube and read Quora for about an hour… Read more

    This has been a day of patience. I had to be patient this morning and felt like the morning hours were wasted.  I was to spend the day with my little sister, who didn’t wake until around eleven.   Which, I guess, has become the new COVID normal, but I couldn’t help but feel let down… Read more

    Here I sit. I have a blood draw at one and it’s eleven. There’s nothing to do in class.  Well, there’s always something, but I’m not doing it right now. The house is quiet save for the clanking in the dryer. I’m actually kind of nervous about the blood draw. Okay.   I famously hate needles,… Read more

  • Dear Wizards United devs, Warner Bros, and Niantic, I’m concerned and a bit confused about how the game is unfolding. A couple of weeks ago, a massive change to the sticker system was horribly implemented. I think I understand why the change happened.   The game is about a year old and some content is going… Read more

    I’m in a unique situation. I’m the oldest of three siblings, who are all in their 40s, who still get along with each other.  I think that’s something my dad never dreamed possible when he is, in part, responsible for our unity. Sure, we think and say bad things about each other every now and… Read more

    Okay. This is getting to be old real quick. I’ve been back at Mom’s house for not even 72 hours at this point. I came in on Sunday.   Today is Tuesday. Ever since then, I have been physically exhausted. I’ve been going to sleep around 9 or 10, embarrassingly, and not waking up until 9… Read more

    Well, after overstaying my welcome for a month and a week, I’m heading home tomorrow. That’s harsh. This is my house too, but it doesn’t feel like it sometimes. But, that’s okay.   Sometimes, Mom’s house doesn’t feel like I belong there either.   I’m loved at either place.    That’s more I can ask… Read more

    It’s kind of been a rough time since I last posted. I was going to go back to Indiana last Sunday, but the plane was canceled.   They put me on an earlier flight without telling me and had to reschedule.  I’m here till Mother’s Day. Maybe. JetBlue announced today that they’re not going to be… Read more

  • RIP Mia – Land O Lakes icon. I knew it was going to happen. Actually, it took a lot longer than I thought. After the Washington Redskin icon protest from a couple of years ago, I thought there would be some sort of revolution to rid society of culturally (and maybe gender based) advertisement icons.… Read more
