I get angry at stuff just like the next person. Mainstream media makes me very angry (even though I try my best to avoid it). Between election bollocks and totally unnecessary and avoidable loss of human life, I’ve been...
Well-Being Winner
May 18, 2017
I’ve been actively engaging in activities that are meant to improve your well-being because right now, it’s what I need. So I’m trying meditation (not going so well), exercise (does walking back and forth to the fridge count?), and...

To Do: Don’t Cry
April 23, 2017
How to jinx your relationship in one easy step….write a blog about it. Sooooo, yeah, that’s done. *Laughs manically for a minute* Writing Get it Together probably wasn’t the smartest move. Relationship number 8 swirls down the toilet and disappears, without...

I think I met Jesus
September 8, 2016
Mental health. I fucking hate that term. What the fuck does it even mean? “Mental” has such a negative connotation as a word in isolation and then just stick “health” on it for good measure. Feels like a contradiction...
I did my best
September 4, 2016
I remember the light coming in from the landing and Dad’s silhouette in the door frame. “You better come downstairs, I think she’s gone.” It was about 5am, I’m pretty sure it was still dark outside and as it...
