Dust

We are billions of bits of dust, scattered about. 
You bump into me,
and I bump into you,
and we come together, we fall apart.
We leave trails behind us of where our hearts have been.

I think the dust metaphor needs work. And I know it’s probably a really cruddy poem, as pretty much all of mine are.

All the News

All the news, just one blog.
I have lots of reworking to do to THE NOVEL. My beta reader/writing buddy (ahh! I have a beta reader! How cool is that?) says that she doesn’t like one of the main characters. In fact she says, “I wish she would just act like a biznatch so I’d have [...]

Hello, It’s Summer Ending

So I had this funny story to tell about putting a wedding planning guide with the Women’s Studies books in Barnes and Noble. Not as a statement or anything. Just because that sort of stuff cracks me up.
But then I started thinking about registering for this coming semester.
And ugh.
I love school. I love college. I [...]

Morning Weirdness

So something weird happened this morning.
I woke up, early (okay okay, stop laughing, that’s weird but it’s not the WEIRD THING that I’m talking about) and you know how sometimes, when you first wake up, you’re all disoriented? It was like that. It was five-something (almost six) in the morning and my alarms hadn’t rang.
Or [...]

Words I Love

The word friends doesn’t seem to stretch big enough to describe how we feel about each other. We forget where one of us starts and the other one stops. –The Second Summer of the Sisterhood
“People find [...]

We’ll See

So I’m giving up on NaBloPoMo. It seems to me that forcing myself to write in here every day just makes my posts all crappy and whatnot.
So yeah.
Possibly I’ll post later tonight. But I don’t know. We’ll see.

Rewind Plz?

Ugh.
You know how some days you just WANT TO WAKE UP AND HAVE IT ALL BE A DREAM?
Yeah, today was one of those days.
I missed the meeting.
I had a nightmare.
I felt sick. (Okay okay I KNOW I feel sick a lot. I always have. I don’t know why.)
The engine light came back on in my [...]

Here’s A Fact

I’d love to write something GOOD but my head is full of BLARGH.
Fact: I lost my phone today. At Albie’s. I then went back to Albie’s on my lunch and retrieved it.
Fact: I’M WORKING SUNDAY MORNING! WHAT? This news comes with me scrambling to find a Saturday meeting to go to.
Fact: My mommy will be [...]

Short Story

Okay so you want the STORY. 
Short story: My doctor changed my Digoxin dose, Digoxin was recalled, my pharmacy doesn’t know what they’re doing, and I wasn’t sure if the medicine I had was part of the recall, I googled it and was confused, I called poison control and all they did was GOOGLE IT and [...]

Death

OMG HI THIS POST IS WAY LATE I KNOW BUT I’VE BEEN ON THE PHONE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT IF I’M GOING TO DIE.
More later.
OH AND I’M NOT GOING TO DIE, AT LEAST THAT’S WHAT THEY TELL ME.
