poof
It’s times like today when I’m completely overwhelmed with my work and what to do with that I wish I went to grad school – like someone there would magically poof it for me and all of it would come together. I’m literally without direction other than the random finds from the internet. How the…

What does it take to be lonesome? Nothing at all
“Lonesome,” Dr. Dog Sometimes the things we experience by chance make the greatest impacts. I think – I hope – that’s why I try to experience all that I can even if it’s something I never thought I would do. Get a tattoo? Yes. Eat tongue? hmm, how is it prepared. Move to Nebraska? yeah,…

Chicken Little
Do you believe in bad omens, luck, juju? Does a cockroach practically falling on your head from an exit sign in my building count? I’m watching my back today. The sky is falling.

Past noon on a whatday
When I woke up this morning I wasn’t sure what day it was. My hope was that it was Wednesday because Thursday I’m getting a massage, but I still need to shave my legs which might be a two-day affair – one never knows. That’s why I didn’t wish it was Thursday. I’m sorry if…

Fruit Salad
This is my mom’s new raft – an electric orange tangerine I hope to see bobbing down a river soon. My step-dad calls this photo “Fruit Salad.” Normally, if she were “en-route” she’d be wearing a mango-colored wet suit – only in the big waves, the little waves are relaxing and don’t require much work…
