For my 4 readers, I’ve long discussed the dangers of driving in Milwaukee. Last Friday, I was hit so hard my car was deemed totaled on the scene. It took insurance days and days and drama and stress but eventually they said the same. A driver had hit my car so hard in my passenger […]

The Olympics of Every Day
Another week of being alive! Huzzah! That opening makes it sound like this week’s blog post is going to be exploding with good news and joy. I’ll do my best. Lately, my neurological realities have been on my mind and I’m trying to feel really grateful for the time I have. That’s not meant to […]
Happy New Year! 🏴☠️🏳
For us, it’s still 2020. Feeling a bit bored and also somewhat doom and gloom However, we have a plan. 🎃 As it’s a pandemic and also because we are old, my husband and I decided that we are going to get dressed 😬 and drive to the grocery store (we have a gift card […]
Well, We Introverts Can’t All Be Normal and Well-Adjusted 😺
I spend most of my time being a recluse and playing Sodoku. I’m an epileptic introvert who is now terrified of her brain degenerating so this is a pragmatic way to spend my time, in my electrified view. At the same time, I can’t play Sodoku all the time so I also spend a lot […]
The Man in the Moon 🎃 and Being a Libra♎️ in a Civil War

Because the moon is a quietly influential celestial body. Yet, last night I simply couldn’t look away, feeling safe and uncharacteristically warm inside our shitty apartment. And the moon wasn’t […]
Brad, If You’re Out There, I Have Your Viper Disc
I’ve recently realized I’ve been holding on to a lot of pointless guilt and it has to do with a stranger named Brad whose name is scrawled on the back of the disc golf disc I use… Long ago, I met David who I eventually married and David played disc golf. I had never disc-golfed […]
Monday Morning Blues and Brights
I remember when it would be Sunday night and I was short and I’d be watching TV and I’d resent seeing Jessica Fletcher’s dumb face on Murder She Wrote because it meant that the next morning it would be Monday and school would start once again. I didn’t have any significant problems at school beyond […]
Weakness, Witches and Signs of the Time
I’m not able to leave the house much because I have bad lungs. I am still in the revolution, as my friend refers to it, but I’m also living in a time of coronavirus like most other humans on earth and, since I’m more susceptible to the virus because of my bad lungs, I’m staying […]
Tired (Wild Animals Screaming into an Invisible Mic)
I’ve been running in place for ten years. And I just realized it. In books, I sometimes see authors compare “a cake walk” to playing the old board game Candy Land. As in, both are smooth/easy/no problem. Well. Candy Land is in fact a brutal board game. Now that I think of it… cake walks […]
