    I think you should listen to Ezra Furman’s “Every Feeling” today

    January 28, 2020 /

    Maybe I’ve just been watching too much Sex Education on Netflix (where this song is from), or maybe I just need a break from the same 50 songs I’ve been listening to for the past six weeks, but this song really hit me. I’m gonna feel every feeling in the book tonightFuck the hurt, fuck the painFuck the panic, fuck the hate I wanna feel every feeling in the book tonightAnd only love, only love and happiness will remain And I’m not trying to sound different with all the cuss words that I don’t really use on this thing, but I think these lyrics are quite apt. I haven’t had time to process anything…

    I’m doing a thing.

    January 21, 2020 /

    Or at least I’m trying to. As the beginning of this year is unusual for me with all these things happening at work and with friends, I decided to use a 2020 caption on photos that I post on social media Yes I am that dorky and wait until you hear it the frigging thing. 525,600 minutes. This not original concept is from the musical Rent, which basically counts all the minutes in a year. It also, I believe, pertains to a measure of a year of love and all things good. I am going above and beyond my 2018 mantra of “More people, less food.” And start posting about…

    Today I am grateful for this view

    January 9, 2020 /

    Last weekend’s quiet in after a few weeks of ups and downs. I am grateful that I got to reset and have the first weekend of a new year, new decade with this view. I am grateful for friends who I got to go with. And I am grateful for the opportunity to meet new ones. There is a lot to be grateful for here. Sometimes I just have to remind myself of that. What are you grateful for this week?

    I think you should listen to Vance Joy’s Mess is Mine today

    January 3, 2020 /

    I have always said it, to people that think I have my ship together, I am a mess. I am. I function, and I have been called highly functioning by professionals I’ve spoken to, but when it comes to my personal life, I AM A MESS. So when I heard this song at a friend’s SDE, I instantly connected to it. For me, it’s all about admitting you’re a mess and now taking their mess and making it yours. My understanding is that it’s all about accepting each other’s imperfections, and loving each other for it. And I guess, that’s what I hope for in the every day. My family…

    What do you believe in?

    January 2, 2020 /

    Belief systems are hard. They’re so fragile, that a tiny crack can break the whole foundation, because they’re built on emotions, (I believe faith is an emotion), and when those emotions are hurt, it’s so easy to just give up on the whole thing. I mean, I was raised Catholic and I still go to mass because of my parents (I KNOW I’M 33, it’s the price of rent), but my belief system, is mostly that people are good because they want to be good, and religion can go awry really quickly, especially when money is involved. But I’m not here to talk about religion, because the universe knows that…
