And believe me I’m not trying to be, but here’s another day, another fired story delay. I don’t know what to say. It’s funny, because when I had that 9-5, I was very disciplined. I kept a really good schedule….
Maybe Tomorrow
My fired story won’t be here today. I have a serious case of writer’s block. Part of it’s due to the subject matter. But I’m starting to believe that a much bigger part of it is because I don’t write…
I’m Posting Every day for the Month of October: Here’s What’s to Come…
It’s October, and I’m back at it! Perhaps you’ve wondered where I’ve been, well it’s all coming up this month so check back every day to get the deets. I must admit, it’s a bit scary writing about being fired….
One Last Post…For 2022, Of Course
I’ve been watching YouTube vlogs and Instagram posts of people recapping their year. With less than an hour and a half left before 2023 steps on the scene, I thought I too will reflect on this past year. Not gonna…
Where I’m been & Finishing the Year Strong
So I’m back, and if you’re wondering where I’ve been – tired. That’s where I’ve been. I’ve been tired – just not in the mood to write. Just mentally and emotionally drained by shit that goes down in life. Stress…
Writing in the Absence of Light
They say figure out what you love to do and find a way to get paid for it…or something like that. I think it was Kathie Lee Gifford who said her father told her that. And I guess with this…
A Writer’s Doubts Get a Little Miracle
I’m a writer, plain and simple. I don’t like to use “aspiring” because, well, writing’s what I do. I’ve been doing it for years – for the majority of my life as a matter of fact – and I think…
And I Can Feel This for Sure, I’ve Been Here Before
Sometimes I do this thing where I revisit previous journal entries from the same day, just to see what I was doing or thinking on that day in years gone by. Since I don’t write every day, I rarely find…
Self-Doubt, Self-Discipline and a Thank You
I was apprehensive about composing this post today: one because I didn’t know what to write, but two because I kinda feel like I’m always complaining. Complaining about what I haven’t done, opportunities missed, wrongs done unto me and what…
Friendly Fire: The Serena Williams and Naomi Osaka Rivalry
Whenever Serena Williams plays Naomi Osaka, I’m always rooting for Serena. I’ve known of Serena longer, she’s closer to my age, and I’m all for the history she’s trying to make. But I must admit, there is a salve to…
Perhaps the One Benefit of Jealousy
First watch, start at 16:46, then let’s talk… I recently had an experience that brought that scene to mind. It aired back in 2003. It was season 3, episode 18 of Girlfriends, they titled it “Runaway Bridesmaid.” Overall, I’m a…
I Got Laid-off Today
Actually I was laid off Friday, but I found out today, because I didn’t open my email until today. And I must say, I’m a bit surprised at how hurt I was. I mean I didn’t like that job. Hated…
