Rabbit, rabbit. There I said it. An old custom I learned of back in high school that I have held onto. May this month be filled with new beginnings. That is my hope. My goal. My wish. I may need a fairy godmother. The month of August is […]
I’m exhausted. Tired. Sleepy. Yet exhilarated. Even with unfair, uncaring people roaming the streets like zombies, doors may open. There are many possibilities yet we often forget they exist. We get caught up in mini-dramas. But we shouldn’t forget, life is do much more. It’s cliche to say […]
Shiny happy people. The college rock band REM sang about them a few decades ago. Supposedly, there were “Shiny happy people holding handsShiny happy people laughing.” But as Paula Cole once asked where’d all the cowboys go, I ask where’d all the happy people go? Seriously! I like […]
In my view and orbit, you don’t get a trophy for participating. Well, not just for participating.

It’s ok to be a phony as long as it’s authentic. As a society we have come to terms with such a sentiment. Now, we not only think about authenticity, but also falsehoods and lies. In that same vein, we are now asking that if you do lie, […]
I want to say that today was a day of the blahs. However, I’m rather nonplussed. Unaffected. Maybe perplexed. But most certainly unimpressed. A shrugged shoulder followed me around. A giggle and often intermixed. I was about to remind myself that wednesdays ars really the day of the […]
