Category: Here I am, Are You Not Entertained?
A comedic set of thoughts you never thought you’d want to hear; stories and lessons I’ve encountered in this silly life we live.
US Mess Part III
We woke up early the next morning. Or, at least, I did. I’m not a great sleeper usually, I stay up late, am restless through the night, then wake up a little after sunrise. It’s a blessing and a curse, but mostly a curse. I let Kollette sleep and spent an hour or two reading… Continue reading US Mess Part III
US Mess Part II
Planes, trains, and birds aren't the only incidents we had. It was very smooth sailing for the most part. Emphasis on the “for the most part.” Sightseeing, fjords, the horses on every property, the waterfalls. We saw at least nine waterfalls while we were there. Doesn’t that sentence just sound insane? How is that possible?… Continue reading US Mess Part II
The Last Five Years?
It has taken me the last five years. Five years, four new states, (technically) nine moves, two educational programs, two cats, and one life goal. Have you ever seen the movie The Last Five Years? The one with Anna Kendrick? Without spoiling anything, it’s a musical movie where she’s an actor who explains how she… Continue reading The Last Five Years?
Please Stop Using the Term “Working Sabbatical”
I’m sure I’ve made mention of my “working sabbatical” before. I’m sure of it. It was my favorite thing to do when people asked me why I moved to Phoenix. Well, it didn’t entirely work out. You see, I work from home. And when I moved to Phoenix, I didn’t have a car. I had… Continue reading Please Stop Using the Term “Working Sabbatical”
Unhinged and Unapologetic
Do you remember back in the 2010’s era when everyone loved to say “This is why we can’t go nice places” or “This is why we can’t take you anywhere” anytime a minor (typically humorous) incident happened? I mean, personally, I still get that comment all the time. But mainly, it was at the height… Continue reading Unhinged and Unapologetic
Ye Of Been Burned Before
Recently, I moved across the country - I called it my “half cross country move” since it technically wasn’t from one coast to the other. Would you believe me if I said it was just a regular trip? That the move was wholly mundane? Of course not. Why would that happen? As it happens, I… Continue reading Ye Of Been Burned Before
That’s It, I’m not Going
The holidays are stressful. Let me repeat that, the holidays are stressful. Yesterday was January 5th and I JUST posted a Christmas picture. I have things to DO. Honestly though, we’re coming upon that time where soon my siblings, my parents and I will be in different parts of the country–not just hours apart, but… Continue reading That’s It, I’m not Going
Let Your Freak Flag Fly
Being yourself is difficult, I mean it’s difficult enough just to be a human being! But especially during those formative years, during the high school years, and during the college years. This time period is when you find yourself, but it’s also where you find your people. My mom used to always say, “You don’t… Continue reading Let Your Freak Flag Fly
“A Life That’s Good”
Time is a fickle thing. Time is everything and nothing. It can be such a huge factor in things, or none at all. I think it may have changed my life. Did you know I used to be the shyest little thing? It’s true! Knowing me now, you would never have guessed. Sammie? Who got… Continue reading “A Life That’s Good”
