  • Sometimes…

    Sometimes…

    Typed but not read back or edited. I can see things so clearly, it’s hard to know if others are purposely (purposefully? idk) ignoring things that seem perfectly obvious. Perhaps they do see those things, but they just let those thoughts float by and focus on what’s more important to them. (Or just what’s seemingly…

  • Editing the podcast.

    Everyone already knows this, but I co-host a podcast with Ryan Matlock called The Aux Cable. We were ticking along releasing a new episode each week until the summer hit bringing with it illness and busy-ness for us both. So the show ended up slipping for a little more than two-ish months while we focused…

  • My family’s here!

    (Almost) all of my family is now here in Vancouver! Dad is visiting for a while with the kidlets. It’s so great to see them all again! I have no clue what the plan is, but I’m sure we gonna have a blast! Otherwise, today’s been fine. I’ve still not been feeling well, but some…

  • Just a thought.

    The way you think about yourself determines your reality. You are not being hurt by the way people think about you. Many of those people are a reflection of how you think about yourself. —Shannon L. Alder Someone in my life is currently in a lot of pain. They can’t see anything clearly. They need…

  • My mantra.

    Okay, just after I typed out ‘mantra’ I thought of the word ‘katra’, which is the living spirit of a Vulcan from Star Trek. Just a little side note there. Mantras can be helpful things. I’m talking about those sayings that you repeat to yourself that help you focus on something. Repeating a mantra every…

  • My number one enemy.

    My number one enemy.

    Good news, friends! Today I have discovered my new top enemy. No, no… Calm down. It’s not me. We already knew that my true enemy is myself. That’s not news. To be honest, this discovery isn’t that surprising. I’ve known about it for a while. But today, the danger posed by this enemy has become more…

  • Meeting new people

    I have been in Vancouver for a few weeks now, but I haven’t done too much socializing outside of my family’s friends. Meeting new people is a big deal for me. I can do it, and I’m really good at socializing, but it’s scary. I know I’m not alone in that fear. Many people also…

  • I’m still hungry…

    SOC (Stream of consciousness)—So, today I’ve eaten a great amount of food, yet I’m still very hungry. Mom made a large breakfast consisting of eggs, guacamole, toast, hash browns, and a really punchy smoothie. All very yummers! I really enjoyed it. Then we drove up the coast to Whistler for a change of scenery. It’s…

  • I have a headache

    I’m unable to write because I have a really bad headache. I’ve been in bed all day. 

  • Sorry…

    I’m sorry. I can’t keep up. That was supposed to be finished today, but I couldn’t do it. I literally couldn’t finish. I wish that I could have. It messes with me and stresses me out. That’s partly why I couldn’t finish, because I had to just… de-stress. I don’t feel bad about ignoring work.…

  • Praise Song for the Day

    Some live by love thy neighbor as thyself, others by first do no harm or take no more than you need. What if the mightiest word is love? Love beyond marital, filial, national, love that casts a widening pool of light, love with no need to pre-empt grievance. —Elizabeth Alexander, Praise Song for the Day

  • What to type…

    When I can’t think of something to type, I tell myself to just start typing. Once I start, stuff comes out. Today is the first day that I really, really don’t know what to write. So here it goes! I arrived in Vancouver all safe and sound today! Got to have a yummy dinner with…

  • Be back tomorrow, folks!

    I’m too tired to write now. I just got home, so that’ll be all for today! M3

    Photographing a Toilet Paper Tube

    So there I was, outside taking pictures of a toilet paper tube with rain falling. How did I get here? Glad you asked! It was a normal day, much like any other day. It had been sunny and warm so far, and I was… doing stuff. I don’t recall exactly what I was doing, but…

  • I’m not okay right now.

    I’m not okay right now.

    Today’s post is gonna be a quick one. Right now, I’m feeling completely… I’m not sure, actually. Defeated? Yeah, I suppose that’s the best word. There’s probably some other stuff in there too, but that’s the biggest thing. Today has been a good day, for which I’m thankful. The sun has been shining, I woke…

  • Cue 2017

    Cue 2017

    Just like that, December 2016 has come to an end. What a crazy and amazing month and a completely unexpected year! I don’t mean that I wasn’t expecting 2016, silly. I mean that what happened over these past twelve months was not expected. Some of it was totally planned. Some things were planned but turned…

  • What’s Up?

    What’s Up?

    This week has been fairly crazy. For the first couple of days, I woke up in Clarkston, Washington. I was visiting some friends for the weekend and having a wonderful time! Although, I was a bit short on sleep. So we slept in a bit. But once we were up, we got straight to doing…
