Every household has its own mythology. In mine, the living room has been invaded by a towering, tail-wagging creature I affectionately call “Godzilla.” Weighing in at 70 pounds of pure joy and oblivious chaos, my big dog believes, without a shadow of a doubt, that he is a […]
I recently stumbled across a quote I had scribbled down at some point in my life, buried in a note, between grocery lists and half-baked blog titles: “A narrow mind and a fat head invariably come on the same person.”— Zig Ziglar Wait, what? I blinked. Then blinked […]
Ah, May. The month of tulips, Taurus birthdays, and apparently, baboons with boundary issues. As I sip my antihistamine-laced tea and contemplate the existential dread of summer speeding toward us, I can’t help but marvel at the bizarre happenings around the globe. Let’s dive into some of madness. […]
Some people consult vision boards. Others call mentors. Me? I pitch my ideas to the dogs. It’s a sacred ritual. I pace the room, rambling some grand scheme or mildly delusional plan, and there they are—my panel of furry consultants. Middle dog, the unbothered philosopher, barely lifts his […]

Somehow, both ended up riding the same emotional wave with women, post-life hiccup, signing up for surfing lessons. Surfing? Not therapy. Not wine. Not screaming into a pillow. Surfing. […]
Ah, Monday. Again. But not just any Monday. No, today we face the Monday before the good Monday. The Monday that has the audacity to show up before a long weekend. A tease. A trickster. The broccoli before dessert. Let’s not pretend it’s an ordinary Monday. It’s got […]
Let’s talk about the dog days of summer. Not because it’s sweltering (though it is for some already) and not because your AC unit is giving you side-eye from overuse, but because I’ve been pondering whether dogs really know or care that it’s summer? The phrase “dog days […]
Some people treat rest like it’s dessert. You only get it if you’ve eaten your vegetables, cleared your inbox, fixed your soul, walked the dog, and saved the world twice. And even then—maybe—you’re allowed to sit down. For ten minutes. As a treat. But let me be clear: […]
