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 […]
The first crack of thundersends one dog scurryingtiny paws, frantic heart,vanishing beneath the coverslike a secret we pretend not to keep. Rain taps at the shutterslike a memoryI haven’t quite made yet.The kind that lives in muscle and moodbefore it ever finds words. The leaves sway lush, green,resilient […]
You ever walk through soup? Not metaphorically. I mean real, breathable soup. That was me today on my way home. Dragging my legs like they were filled with lead and regret through the thickest, heaviest air this side of a pressure cooker. The kind of air that slaps […]
It’s Monday. Again.But this one feels… oddly quiet. Suspiciously still. The kind of quiet where you wonder if you missed a memo. A mass text. A cosmic “Out of Office” notification. This past week, I’ve noticed something. Or rather, I’ve not noticed something.People. Where are they? The commuter […]

How are you feeling right now? This past summer felt like an elaborate dance between sun and fog—one day bathed in golden light, the next shrouded in a hazy grey. It’s as if Mother Nature herself couldn’t decide what mood she was in. And I get it. This […]
Describe one habit that brings you joy. Ah, the dog days of summer—when the heat turns your brain to mush and summer storms, have you scrambling for something, anything, to watch. Enter “Kleo,” my new TV obsession that’s the perfect blend of drama, comedy, and just the right […]
Ah, Monday—our old, uninvited friend. This one starts with a bang: my car refuses to work, the weather forecast promises a toasty 90 degrees, and a heat rash has made an unwelcome appearance. Classic Monday, right? Pop culture has a field day with the Monday blues, and it […]
