My dad passed away on a Tuesday morning. I'd always wondered what it would be like when my parents died. I had a complicated relationship with my parents, especially my mom. I wasn't exactly sure how I'd feel. I'd never really lost anyone extremely close to me other than pets. I have a strange talent… Continue reading The Last Moments

Non Binary
Well, good way too early morning to you all. I woke up and could not get back to sleep. Partly because I was hungry but also because I had way too many thoughts in my head. Therefore, here we are, me with a lean cuisine cheese pizza and my laptop at 2:30 am ET. The… Continue reading Non Binary
Representation
Over the last week, I have been overwhelmed with joy in all the LGBTQIA+ representation on television. Television is one of my favorite artistic mediums to indulge in. The new season of Locke & Key came out on Netflix this week. In this season, in a major series, they have a whole episode dedicated to… Continue reading Representation
It is OK to be smart in recovery
There are certain one liners in 12-step recovery that absolutely drive me crazy. My least favorite is that “you can be too smart to get sober but not too dumb.” I understand the overall meaning of this. It is about ego and being humble.

Born With It
Writing Exercise - Words of the Day (04/24) One day I was born, and I came out screaming like any other human. 10 fingers and 10 toes. No indication to those around me that my sexuality was gay. "You are talking about a baby that's absurd! Kids shouldn't know about that word. School children should… Continue reading Born With It
Vomit Diaries – Why are we all floating?
My brain was in space this morning, figuratively. Seeking answers to these types of questions from friends. Needless to say, I ended up taking the day off work, my mind was not in the type of space for work. I needed a day off anyway. The day prior I decided to challenge my fit 80… Continue reading Vomit Diaries – Why are we all floating?
Oh, there you are, HP!
I woke up this morning with a headache and a decision to make. So I made it. Sometimes I can make a series of decisions that start to make me question myself. The dreaded question, "Am I regressing?" It can take just a few small moments for me to start to doubt my self-worth. Much… Continue reading Oh, there you are, HP!
