Living on the edge means there isn’t any extra money for new keyboards when you’re foolish enough to dump coffee all over one that works perfectly fine. Thanks to Kim and her castoff I am back to typing again. WOO HOO Kim!

The one thing I really like about having a small readership is that I am feeling more and more safe to really write what I want. I always have that underlying fear of being harsh and offensive to people who don’t know that I am at heart a kind, overly empathic soul [...]

This isn’t going to be a nice cheery holiday post. I have been trying to find a way to keep this space mostly pleasant and bright, but, it’s my space. If it’s going to be an honest representation of myself then sometimes I’m gonna be less than nice. Very few folks stop [...]
