Hey folks! The S.O. and I have arrived safely in Seattle. I'll do another post talking about some of the awesome stuff we saw on the roadtrip out, but we've had some upsets in our scheduling and I haven't had my computer this week (the S.O. ended up having a lot of virtual education to...

You may notice that I didn't post last week. Usually I give warning if I am not going to post, but honestly last week was an entire mess that I largely can't discuss and I've fallen behind in my blog queue given the whirlwind of June. My brother got married on the 21st, we bought... Continue Reading →
I said I wasn't going to do a post this week, since I'm on vacation, and this isn't one really. It's just I realized I hadn't done a personal post on here in a while. So I thought I'd take a minute to check in! 2021 got off to a rocky start, no surprise, but... Continue Reading →
Yesterday, I waited in line for two hours to get a Covid test I probably didn't need, seeing as we already know the S.O. has Covid. It was my first time getting a Covid test and, at risk of putting you off of getting one, I thought I would describe the experience. Waiting in line... Continue Reading →
Hello humans! I'm writing this post in the first week after my S.O. broke his foot and rendered himself temporarily disabled. Which reminds me: disability rights are human rights, because you will be disabled in some fashion at some point in your life, at least if you live long enough. Accessibility is important for this...

Alright, this is a weird post for me. I've been feeling a little demoralized of late with writing stuff, for a variety of reasons, some logical, some the result of me comparing myself to others who are just in a very different place in their careers -- which, by the way, makes no sense. Cannot... Continue Reading →
Hello, humans! I debated about doing a MystiCon recap here because I have been...very much feeling like taking a nap. Like really, a nap would be great. I took a brief break after the convention, but it wasn't long enough. So instead I decided to just do a general State of the Author post with... Continue Reading →
Some days, being a creative and trying to build a career out of it feels like being on a hamster wheel you can't get off of. I am a human who happens to produce an overabundance of ideas. I'm good at it. Execution of said ideas? Sometimes difficult. Ideas? I have them for days. A... Continue Reading →
Two years ago, I walked into my first aerial silks class. About two weeks ago, I returned home from an intensive workshop in the tropics in aerial silks, flying trapeze, and acroyoga. I take aerial silks at a small studio in downtown Roanoke called Cirqulation, owned by my good friend Lynsey Wyatt. Lynsey is a... Continue Reading →
Hey folks! I meant to have this post done Friday, but I didn't so here we are. As previously mentioned here, I went on vacation for two weeks in June. I've been back at work for a little over a week now and things are finally starting to settle enough for me to find time... Continue Reading →
