    Premonition – The Movie I Forgot to Remember

    June 2, 2026 /No Comments

    Watching movies with my mother is annoying. Watching a movie with her where there is a husband and kids in the plot is even more so. When she was still here, I made the mistake of watching the movie Premonition with her. I, unfortunately, did not remember enough of the plot from the time I had seen before to realize it was a landmine of issues. That is how I found myself in that situation. Oh, also, spoilers ahead if you haven’t watched the movie, so whatever.

    Krakatoa on the Inside…An Ode to the Death of My Marriage

    March 31, 2013 /No Comments

    I wore a fake face for five months while he openly had an affair at work, just to secure a custody settlement in my favor. I won a race no one knew I was running. I just wish I'd done this eight years ago.
