There’s a saying I often hear —“Everything happens for a reason.” It’s usually delivered by well-meaning folks when you’re in the middle of a complete life upheaval and barely holding it together with caffeine and denial. At those times, it sounds more like a taunt than a comfort. […]
Halloween. The one night where you can be anything or anyone—and have an absolutely legit reason to dig through the attic, the closet, and perhaps even the cobwebbed depths of your imagination. No, I’m not talking about a midnight snacking mission for last year’s stale candy corn. I […]
What things give you energy? Being super silly and semi-silly give me energy. At times, it allows me to bring great levity. So, here we go with a tale that is a bit of silliness on a very long day. Ready? I’ve long suspected that octopuses were up […]
There’s a certain art form to receiving random texts that say everything and nothing all at once. You know, those delightful little nuggets like “nothing’s going on” or “everything’s a mess” with absolutely zero context. No explanation. Just… life served up on a platter with a side of […]
So, I just finished watching the first episode of The Penguin on Max, starring Colin Farrell, and let me just say… who knew Oswald Cobblepot would emerge as the antihero we’re oddly rooting for? Sure, he’s a slimy, murderous, and manipulative gangster, but in this new series, Farrell’s […]

What’s your favorite word? There’s a moment in *Gilmore Girls* that never fails to surprise me: Jess, the brooding rebel, gets attacked by a swan. A swan. Of all the things. It’s the kind of scene that makes you pause mid-laugh because, honestly, who ever imagines a swan […]
I’ve had some odd moments in life, but few compare to that time I mistook a bird for my missing phone. Yes, you read that right. You see, I have a knack for misplacing things. Keys? Sure. Glasses? Regularly. But my phone? That’s a treasure map worth guarding—or […]
