    Alone versus Lonely

    December 26, 2019 / No Comments

    If there is one thought that has been lingering on my mind over the last several weeks is the pros and cons of remaining alone. Sometimes I wonder if I am just making a martyr of myself post-divorce, or if I am truly meant to walk the earth a lone wolf.

    Tales of an Outsider

    September 2, 2014 / No Comments

    I am an outsider in my office. I’ve only lived in Texas a year, I am working a job intended for someone younger than me (about 15 years younger), and the people who are my age are employees fully invested in the pathetic drama that comes from working for a public academic institution.

    A Series of Unfortunate Events

    October 9, 2013 / No Comments

    Having served in the Navy sometimes feels like it happened to somebody else. Except for when life reminds me through a series of unfortunate events.

    Movie For One

    April 25, 2013 / No Comments

    I go to the movies alone. I love it and totally don’t mind not having someone else with me to watch the movie. Maybe it’s residual conditioning from having experienced the extreme opposite: going to the movies with a loudmouth malcontent who ruined the experience either by falling asleep during the movie or by being the guy who blurted out the plot because he figured it out ten minutes into the film…

    Summer Doldrums

    July 24, 2008 / No Comments

    I am guilty of packing too much busyness into my days. I get all caught up in the “To Do” list that I forget how much fun it is to just take a break. I wish now, as the month of July comes to a close, that I had been able to have more of a break these last few months.

I blog about the random ass shit going on in my life. I'm a single mom, a Navy veteran, avid reader, and coping with life post-divorce. I have two sons and five cats, so clearly, I'm a catch. I pull no punches and use salty language. Read at your own risk.
