I know in my previous post, I teased a preview of this post and, well, let's just say this is not the post you've been awaiting. After a day or two, it seems cooler heads have prevailed and the conflict I referred to has been resolved to my satisfaction. Posting anything further on my part …

Quitting
I don't like to walk away from things. My natural inclination is to stick with something (a project, an employer, a social group) until I am absolutely forced to shift away. I am loyal to a fault; once you have my attention, you will find it hard to get rid of me. And I will …
Rest in Power
Those who know me well might describe me as a huge NBA basketball nerd. Ever since we moved to a town large enough to get cable TV, I started watching the sport and fell in love. The team dynamics, the ball movement, the pace of the game, the story arc of the season(s), the player …
Less Thinking, More Writing
My writing practice has gone a bit off the rails lately. My periods of inspiration have not been in alignment with my schedule in a way that has allowed me to put pen to paper, so to speak, for at least the last month. This has caused me to be simultaneously pent up with ideas …
A Day, Derailed
I am not a morning person. If one knows anything about me, they probably know that I am more likely to be awake in the 2am hour than I am in the 5am, or even 6am hour, on any given day. Much of my writing and other creative brain work happens between 10pm and 2am. …

WARNING: in case the title of this post wasn't telling enough, I am going to be writing about death and dying in this post. If you aren't in a place to engage with this topic right now, I will not feel bad at all if you table it for another time, or just skip it …

Blog Changes
Hey everyone, dear readers new and old. I am so grateful for each and every one of you. When I started writing regularly in this space just over 2 years ago, I never expected anyone to read it. I was just posting, setting my thoughts free into the ether, where they could be picked up …
How to Argue Well
I went to a friend's birthday party a few weeks ago and it was fabulous to see people and engage. While I wouldn't say I know this person incredibly well, we have played in the band together for years. She's also married to another band member and the band even played a short set at …
