There are certain days in life when you think, “Yes, today is the day I make a healthy choice.” You know. Drink more water, eat fewer chips, cut down on energy drinks that could probably power a lawn mower. But fate has a sense of humor. I decided […]
The pumpkin spice fog hasn’t even fully settled over the land, and already September is coming in hot with its mile-long to-do list. Forget New Year’s resolutions. This is when the real reset button gets smacked, whether you like it or not. The emails are breeding. The meetings […]
Why do you blog? So here we are. This marks my 199th blog post in a row. Yes, 199! That’s consistency, dedication, maybe obsession, or maybe just the quiet sanity I get from tapping out my words in this cozy corner of the internet. Honestly, a few years […]
So apparently, humans (and perhaps a few other entities) send over 2.5 billion messages to ChatGPT every single day. That’s billions with a B. More than the number of daily texts between gossipping teenagers in 2005. More than the prayers whispered to the universe when you can’t find […]
Here we are: the last lazy Saturday of August. That odd, in-between time when summer is slipping away but fall hasn’t quite strutted onto the stage with its pumpkin spice parade. I’m half-tempted to declare today a national holiday: The Cult of Staying In Pajamas While the World […]

Seventeen. The age that feels like a prologue to freedom. The big one before the big one. My son has hit it, and suddenly I feel like I’m standing on a cliff looking out at both the child he was and the adult he is about to become. […]
We are supposedly in the last week of summer. But let’s be real, it’s not actually the last week. The sun hasn’t signed off yet. The weather app is still screaming UV index 9. The sandals still have one more lap in them. And yet the vibe says […]
So here I am, yet again, re-watching The Vampire Diaries. Yes, I know. I can’t stand the sight of blood in real life. But put a brooding vampire on my screen with a leather jacket and a moral dilemma, and suddenly I’m all in. There’s just something about […]
