Eggs Are No Longer My Enemy

Journal · September 10, 2025

I’ve found myself making eggs for breakfast lately, and I’ve bought hummus on my last few grocery trips. These are new occurrences for me. I would enjoy eggs a bit, but for me, they always came with the risk of too much awareness—I’d be good for Read the Post

A Compelling Narrative Isn’t the Point Here

Journal · September 9, 2025

I’ve started this post four different times and each time, I deleted everything I wrote. Nothing got far, only three or so paragraphs each time, but start after start after start just wasn’t working. They were attempts at putting together a moment Read the Post

Update on My Summer Reading List

Reading · September 6, 2025

I finished precisely one book on my summer reading list: Love on the Brain by Ali Hazelwood. It wasn’t the best book I’ve ever read, and it was not Hazelwood’s strongest, either, but I did have a lovely time reading it. I read a lot of other books Read the Post

Short And Nothing Much At All

Journal · September 5, 2025

I am here tonight only for consistency’s sake. There is not an ounce of energy left in my body today to put real thought into these words, but I promised myself I would show up, so I did. Days flow, needs change, unexpected situations arise. We Read the Post

Post-Work Tik Tok Time

Journal, Writing · September 4, 2025

Tonight, after work, I spent a long time in bed watching Tik Toks. That is abnormal for me, but I just didn’t have any energy left after work today. Today’s work brought a lot of problems that needed my attention and it spent most of the mental Read the Post

The Tiniest Vulnerability Hangover to Ever Exist

Journal, Writing · September 3, 2025

My reticence regarding thorough editing of these posts fascinates me. Me, who needs to present a polished exterior. Me, who has a hard time fathoming doing something half-assed. I almost can’t stand it in my day-to-day, so it intrigues me that I am Read the Post

Learning How My Brain Works…It’s A Journey

Journal, Writing · September 2, 2025

To my loyal readers out there (no one, mostly intentionally), I am so sorry for this inadvertent hiatus I took. I told you I would be writing longer posts and posting weekly instead of daily, and I, clearly, miserably failed at that. I’ve been keenly Read the Post

The Great Cosmic Point

Journal, Writing · July 7, 2025

Fun fact about me: I spend a lot of time thinking about The Point. Like, an abnormal amount. Definitely an above average amount. I can’t help it. It is a remnant of childhood (and adolescent…and young adult…) anxiety. I always consider Read the Post

Wrapping up June and Setting Forth in July

Journal, Writing · July 1, 2025

I am proud of myself for committing to a challenge I set forth and seeing it through. I am really happy with what came out of this month of writing and I am honestly surprised by how easy I found it. I thought I would struggle a lot more, that I Read the Post

When You Have to Search for an Idea

Journal, Writing · June 30, 2025

I don’t really know what to write tonight. Usually, there is a thread from the day that pops out to me when I sit down to write this blog; it’s a thought that is interesting to me and easy to get down on the page. Today had some interesting moments, Read the Post
