It Was Twins
I had two subjects I loved. English and Science. They were together, like conjoined twins. I found the human body and how it worked fascinating. I took biology. Never got the chance to take chemistry. Anthropology was extremely interesting. Understanding more about someone’s culture helps explain how they behave and react. For English classes, I… Continue reading

For “My Rex”
I’m trying to figure out how to word this… Hmm… ~Loving ~Cuddly ~Warm ~Affectionate ~Charming ~Innocent ~Trusting ~Emotional ~Easily hurt ~Self-conscious ~Nervous ~Paranoid ~Fearful ~Suspicious ~Regretful ~Needy ~Clingy All of these and a few more are good descriptions of how my mother was. She was all of these things, wrapped up in one person. A… Continue reading

What Kinds??
Biggest one is COVID19. Lingering one is COVID19. Ugh… I remember blizzards, Y2K, 9/11, BLIZZARDS, tornadoes and hurricanes they talked about on the news. That one time that my entire house shook due to a doggone earthquake in the area. BLIZZARDS. Lots and lots of school shootings. I also remember the DC Sniper. … Those… Continue reading

Endless
If you could have one thing, what would it be and why? In the past, I would have said “if only I could go back…” But going back is a waste of time. The strongest memories we tend to have are the negative ones, aren’t they? The problem with our minds is that over time,… Continue reading

I Talk About It All The…
The Sims 4. I hadn’t played it since it was Sims 2, but after surgery in 2019, I started to play to get my mind off things. When you’ve had a hysterectomy at a young age, you sometimes can have some psychiatric trauma from it. Especially if you wanted a family. Other people, who either… Continue reading

Multi-Pass??
Does CELINE DION count as a genre?? I’m very fond of the 80s and 90s music and some until the early 2000s. 😌 I listen to just about every type of music, except a few. Notably gospel and rap. I’m unable to listen to them without developing a stabbing headache. That made mom sad because… Continue reading

Oldies But Goodies
Liver, rice & onions… and good mac n cheese. I used to hover around the kitchen when my grandmother was making the mac. She never scolded me for talking a small block of the cheese she was using. At least I don’t remember her doing that. Liver & onions was like a treat when she… Continue reading

… Strange …
I wish I could say I had a favorite, but if I’m being entirely honest, I’ve never thought about it. There are many historical figures that I admire, and I greatly enjoy learning the history behind places and people. Maybe there’s one historical figure that I really like the most though. Tesla. The man wanted… Continue reading
