    Picking Up the Pieces of Things Lost in the Divorce: Battlestar Galactica

    April 30, 2020 / No Comments

    One of the fallouts of the divorce was losing the things that I shared with the ex. Things that he appropriated and then tried to own them, and share them with his mistress. It took years for me to regain these things, to be able to partake in these things without getting overwhelmed with negative triggers. One of these days I will spend some time retracing the steps of his manipulation.

    Reality Dreaming: Sparking the Fires of Motivation Under My Ass

    March 9, 2019 / No Comments

    Some people remember their dreams. Some I remember, some I forget. It depends. If the dream leaves me shaken when I wake up, then I am going to try to remember it. Probably why I keep paper and pen near my bed.

    Fever Dream – Ghosts from My Past and Watching Bandersnatch

    January 17, 2019 / No Comments

    I have a weird quirk where sometimes the more popular something is, the more I resist jumping on the bandwagon. Some latent habit left over from my rebellious youth ? A remnant of anti-establishment feelings that never really disappeared, perhaps?

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.
