    2020 – Hindsight and the New Year

    December 26, 2019 /No Comments

    2009: unhappy marriage, SAHM, church choir. 2019: divorced, dream job, five cats, paying my own bills. Feels like I am doing better. Room for improvement, but that's ok.

    Merry Christmas to Me – the Gift of Peace

    December 25, 2019 /No Comments

    I didn't invite my mother and brother for Christmas this year. My mother tried everything to get invited. I woke up at noon and felt nothing but peace. Merry Christmas to me.

    Conflict of Interest Pt 2: The Cocky Coworker

    December 11, 2019 /

    In my previous post, I described the blue-collar Hispanic man who is low-key obsessed with me. So if I ever go missing, he should definitely be considered Prime Suspect #1 or, at the very least, a person of interest. This time I’m going to describe the other half of this coin, the ones who can’t seem to stand me after a while. In particular, the white-collar man, a coworker of mine who is a team leader in another department.

    Conflict of Interest Pt 1: The Lawnmower Man

    December 11, 2019 /1 Comment

    My mother set me up with a lawnmower guy. He did good work. He also sent unsolicited pictures and became obsessed. The grass still needs cutting, so here we are.

Writing about the random ass shit going on in my life since 2007. I pull no punches and use salty language. Read at your own risk.
