Arbitrary Madness. Artistic Exploration. Dope Things.
I’ve always been fascinated by the concept of cuffing season. Mostly because it’s forsaken me the past few years. When the air gets brisk, my mind entertains thoughts of holidays with bae and getting dumped after New Year’s (definitely before February 14th). Yet nothing happens. My DMs stay dry, my legs stay cold, and IContinue Reading “Cuffing Season: 2017 Edition.”
Dear Hallmark Channel, I am dismayed at your lack of creativity, lack of innovation, lack of pizzazz. You continually disappoint me with your antics. I don’t ask for much. You’d be better than Lifetime if you found as many unique ways to fall in love as Lifetime does to drive a woman to mental instability.Continue Reading “Hallmark Channel, you disappoint me.”
Sometimes people tell me I’m a positive person and it lowkey pisses me off. It’s not exactly what they say, it’s more what they mean. They just say, “you’re a positive person,” but what they’re really saying is, “you’re one of those annoying glass-half-full people who wakes up with sunshine up their ass and I hateContinue Reading “Tell me what’s a positive person.”
My first love’s name was Carlos. I was six years old, smitten by both his smile and his baseball skills. Carlos was Carlos Baerga, the Cleveland Indians’ second baseman. During the summer of 1996, he was traded away from the Tribe. I still remember the night of the trade: the news broke while my familyContinue Reading ““How can you not be romantic about baseball?””

It was supposed to be that thing you do with your friends to be happy. Now it’s the actual worst. ThisContinue Reading “10 Reasons Shopping is the Worst (Especially When You’re an Adult)”
The other day I was explaining yoga to someone who’s never tried it and described it as “Simon says.” Someone tells you what to do and you do it. It was true, but there’s also a lot more to it. Yoga instructors are like mentors rather than generals. They’re not gonna yell at you orContinue Reading “Simon says do you.”
Today while enjoying my favorite pastime – bookstore prowling – I noticed a clutch with the phrase “If I had to live my life again, I’d make the same mistakes, only sooner.” I only hesitated a moment it before another book caught my eye and I moved on. But the phrase stuck with me. IContinue Reading “Mistake, regret, lesson. Repeat.”
Can’t nobody tell me anything about my grandma. I didn’t have the fortune of knowing her as long as others, but I did live with her more than half my life and I think that counts for something. No, I didn’t see all the sides of her, the ways she clashed and crashed with others, butContinue Reading “Happy birthday, grandma.”
