Friend Whirlwind in Never Say Never
After complaining for seven years that nobody ever comes to see me at the beach, it seems I cracked the code on getting guests. I've had company pretty much nonstop since late April, with time on...
Update on Various in Never Say Never
So. Another week of funemployment. There is a battle going on between the "doing" part of me and the "being" part of me. The "doing" part cannot shut up and cannot get over the fact that we are n...
Things in Never Say Never
Seems to be Dream About Ex-Boyfriends Week here on ARH. Night before last, it was Billy. Last night, it was Patrick. They have been those vivid dreams that hang around all day, haunting me with d...
Never a Joiner, Never a Joiner in Never Say Never

This Is What It Feels Like in Never Say Never
A few weeks ago I was lying on my back in yoga before class, soaking up the heat and looking for gratitude, when a little train of thought ran through my head: This is what it feels like to have ...
The Gang's All Here in Never Say Never
Almost. I keep coming back to check the roll. And I am determined to make some new diary friends. I've always loved a clean slate. Let's rule Prosebox, people. Our little corner of it anyway.
