How do you know…
When you’re ready to jump back into the potential dating scene? Not like “Let’s go get married” expectations, but someone to enjoy their company, have a plus one to events, and maybe even get naked on occasion? Is that a thing? No, I’m not talking a fuck-boy, I mean a grown-ass man who has his…

Therapy > Drugs
Happy Mental Health Awareness Month! In all actuality, I just realized the theme of the month yesterday.. the day before maybe?

It’s the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine.
It’s Thursday, December 30th. Two days left in this shit-show year. All signs point to 2020 and 2021 being the ramp up or trial run for whatever is coming in 2022, but I’m choosing to just try and focus on the here and now. Easier said than done, amiright? It doesn’t help that two separate…

Last weekend was the first weekend since being “home” that I actually spent at home, which was much needed after my slight psychotic break a few days prior. Not really…

A Little Bit of Woo Woo and Magick
I like all things weird. You want to talk about ghosts? Sweet, I live in a haunted house built in the 1800s and swear one of them is a ghost cat. You want a tarot reading? I got you! I’ve been practicing for ages and love how sassy in your face they can be. You…
