Children don’t come with manuals. How many times have we all heard (and maybe even said) this? When I was blessed with my boys, I shared some insecurities with my mom. She told me it’s not a matter of *if* you screw them up, but how. I was appalled; I think I stopped talking to […]
Ramblings
Ready for Love…or Not (Detroit: Part 3)
I spoke to Detroit on and off over the years (in between his girlfriends from what I could tell). He started messaging me more frequently towards the end of 2020 sharing how he really wanted to move to Vegas and get out of Michigan. Of course there was more flirting and suggestive conversations between us. […]
Prison and a Ball
A couple of months ago I got to spend some time with two of my closest friends and explore a city I had never spent time in. (Driving through the city doesn’t count.) Ironically enough, I’m actually back in Northern California with the same friends (and a couple of more) as I write this. We […]
Content Creation
My brain is creative in certain ways, often in spurts. Then, I go blank. Or I might get stuck obsessing over one particular project, story, or idea at a time. I think maybe that’s my brain’s way of keeping me on my toes. I’m just as surprised as everyone else at what comes out my […]
Water Baby
My personal element is fire, which makes sense now that I understand the elements and myself a bit more. However, I’m a water baby at heart. I love the water and typically feel at home there. From swimming, to the ocean, to a nice hot shower, it calms and soothes me. (Then again, water does […]
HUMAN
I saw this hoody last year (from #WearThePeace) and made a note to myself to get it. I knew I needed it. The underlying message is hugely important to me. We are all human. (At least I hope so.) I don’t have room in my space for racism. Seeing the injustice and stupidity all over […]
Dedication and Adventure
Sometimes you meet someone through a mutual social circle and you get along, sometimes hang out in a group setting, and think they’re kinda cool. Neither of you really take the initiative to try to get to know each other on a deeper level, but you like each other enough. Something more than acquaintances, but […]
Second Lap (Detroit: Part 2)
Not quite a year later, “Detroit” returned. His two friends that were with him last time (a couple) came back with him again. We had kept in touch, so I knew we would hang out this time around. I actually let him ride one of my motorcycles on that trip…which is something I don’t do. […]
