Apparently, in Norway, not only are the fjords majestic, but the citizens also possess superpowers like the ability to sleep through a 500-foot container ship crash-landing on their front lawn. Yes, Johan Helberg of Byneset woke up not because of the world’s loudest alarm clock, but because a […]
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 […]
This weekend, I watched the latest Mission: Impossible installment- The Final Reckoning (is it really the final one? Who knows anymore?). What I do know is that this franchise has lived a long life powered by Tom Cruise’s energy, charisma, and refusal to slow down. And, while this […]
You ever get that look? That “Are you mad at me?” look. That “Why aren’t you responding to my third message in 30 seconds?” That “You’re being quiet and I don’t like it” energy? Yeah. That one. Well here’s the thing: I’m not being distant. I’m buffering. Like […]

I had a dream the other night. But not the kind that shakes your soul awake or inspires a novel. No. This dream was quite possibly one of the dullest scenes my brain has ever produced. I dreamt… of updating my phone. Yes, you read that right. While […]
There was a time in my life when I thought rice cakes were the answer. To what, I’m not entirely sure. Hunger? Diet culture? A deep need for crunch without the commitment? Whatever it was, I answered it with a crinkly plastic sleeve of lightly seasoned air. I […]
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 […]
