Day 31 - A Look Back at January
What a month, huh? Started with my super unreliable friend, C. fucking around with my New Year’s Eve by not showing up until three hours after he told me he’d arrive. Lesson learned: set b...

Day 23 - Circumcision!
I’m back on the front page, so I wanted to add a bit of a trigger warning for this entry. Don’t click if speaking medically about one’s elderly parents’ privates skeeves you out. . . . . . . . ...
Day 22 - Coffees (Plural)
Good morning, friends! Another arctic morning. I’ve done all of my morning routine, taken the dog out to potty, and now working (mostly). It’s going to warm up this afternoon and I’m looking fo...

Day 9 - Bullies
Guess I missed a day yesterday. Whoopsie. At least writing an entry a day isn’t part of my challenge. Maybe it should be?? Anyway. I’m nesting while working. It’s cold here and we are supposed ...

Day 6 - Circling Back, Part 1
Hah. Welcome back to work, everyone! Today’s the day we all circle back from all that shit we left undone last year. I love all the memes that have been going around, but I’m also guilty of doin...
Day 5 - Keep the Lights On!
OK. I’m tired of writing about my brother now. Let’s move on, shall we? It’s Sunday night and tomorrow things go back to “normal” after the holidays. There’s going to be a lot to do on the work...
Day 4 - "What You're Walking Into"
It’s the end of the day on Saturday. I got up outrageously early, did my workout, dropped the dog at daycare and drove 3.5 hours to the big flea market before I drove the 30 minutes to my parent...
