• Kicking The Habit Of Consumerism. A Year Of Change.

    It’s new years as shocking as it might be, yet another year has passed us by and boy do they seem to fly faster and faster. I like to say that I usually don’t fall for the typical New Year’s resolutions bandwagon, only to give up after a few weeks. But this year is a

  • Every road leads somewhere

    Think back on your most memorable road trip. I can’t pick just one memorable road trip. Ever since I was little, we would pack up our suitcases and drive the two day drive to Florida or the Carolinas. Sure we flew sometimes, but my mom tended to get sick on planes, so we usually chose

  • What are your thoughts on the concept of living a very long life What is the concept of living a long life? You either do or you don’t. Sure, there are things you can do to try to live longer but it may all come to naught. There is many a grave filled with people

  • So much to change, so little time (or motivation)

    What could you do differently? What could I do differently is not the same thing as what should I do differently. I could put the pb and j on the outside of the sandwich. I could rage bait people on Reddit. I could read a book backwards. I ~could~ fake my death and move to

  • The irony of plans

    I think it was a month ago exactly that I said I wanted to continue writing my blog as an outlet and something I wanted to stick to. One month later, I obviously didn’t. I could say it’s frustrating that I can’t follow through with anything, but like dealing with someone who’s burned you a

  • How to stop caring

    How to stop caring

    It’s been 4 months since I left to go to Spain. It’s hard to believe time flew that quickly. I’m reminded constantly of time by looking at my daughter; the changes are imperceptible daily but how much they accumulate over time til you realize you have a completely different person standing in front of you.

  • I answered one of those daily prompts about something that I needed to do but hadn’t. I railed and whined about how my health was in a bit of a bad spot and that the great American way of have health insurance or go fuck yourself, was not working well for me. I knew I
