So Many Words, So Little Time

I can say for certain that one of my many pet peeves is when someone tells me I have the same amount of hours as some celebrity. We’ve all heard it before, especially when it comes to creative pursuits and telling you that you can accomplish so much because we all have the same amount

Take Me to the Aquarium and Call Me Pretty

If you’ve been following me for a while, you’ll know that for about ten years, I spent a great deal of time on the road as an educational consultant. It was a job that I deeply loved and had an absolute blast. It gave me a chance to spread a positive message and make a

Being a LOST Fan Prepared Me to Be a Swiftie (Hear Me Out On This)

Go into this post with an open mind- I’m sleep deprived and possibly going insane. It’s yet to be determined. So, when I was writing my last post about re-watching LOST, I said something that got my mind spinning. I talked about how much fun it was to decode different parts of the show and

LOST Is Back On Netflix (So Don’t Talk to Me For a While)

There has never been a more divisive topic of conversation in my life than the show LOST. I’m fairly certain that every person that has ever watched it will come back out the other end with a wildly different opinion about what they just watched.  Given that I’m a sucker for a good re-watched and

The Unhinged Ramblings of a Third Grader; or, My Journey to Becoming a Writer

Every once and a while I remember that Twitter/X exists and I show up like the drunk uncle on Christmas and unleash an onslaught of nonsense only to disappear into the abyss only to resurface at the next major holiday. Last week was an event called QuestPit, a writer’s hype event where writers come together

Justin Timberlake Forget Tomorrow Tour Review: The Good, The Bad, The Disappointing

I’ve officially (kinda) entered my “Get Out of the House” Era. I’m honestly trying to get out more and do more things that don’t involve sitting in bed or on the couch all day. Today is not the best example but, in my defense, it is storming outside so sitting in bed and watching LOST

I Actually Left the House (and Only Cried Twice)

I’ll be honest that the biggest reason I haven’t been blogging as much lately is because I have become such an absolute homebody that nothing that’s happening around me seems interesting enough to share. Then when something does happen worth writing about, I don’t have the energy to sit and write about it. I’ll be

I Went Outside in Florida and Wasn’t Eaten By An Alligator (Not For Lack of Trying)

This story begins with an absolutely hideous bush. Specifically, an absolutely hideous bush that lived in front of my house. I can’t fully explain why, but I hate this bush. I’ve hated it since I bought the house but I didn’t have the energy to actually deal with it until recently. For over a month

Solo at Sea: A Comedy of Buffets, Books, and Bon Voyage

When conducting a job interview, I tend to ask strange and unexpected questions. I remember one time I asked a job candidate what their worst enemy would say about them and it threw everyone in the room off their game. I remember my coworker doing a slow burn look of confusion towards me.  I was
