    something about the sun going down has me feeling mellow alone yearning not sure for what but wanting something a distraction? i’m reminded of an ig reel i saw today this guy said something like, for all you people out there who didn’t have an emotional connection with your primary caregivers… how is it wanting…

    ‘so, are you gonna write a book?’ Stef asks this so innocently over the phone then adds, ‘it would make a great birthday gift… … … my birthday is this month’ lol she cracks me up. as if i didn’t know. i think one day, probably sooner than i think, i will work on a…

    ex act ly me

    I got off the phone feeling mildly heated Annoyed Flustered Soul and I just had “discussion” around which salsa was the one they liked – they were at the farmers market and wanted to buy the one we had eaten a few weeks back.  I felt like I had explained what I knew and felt…

    so hilarious it’s not even funny

    it’s hilarious, isn’t it it is, to me the idea that i think i know something, think i know myself think i know period. example i thought i knew how to be and i did for a brief moment that moment being the moment i experienced myself fully and not a moment after just that…

  • who you are

    who you are

    if you want to know who you are, let the sun tell you of your light if you want to know who you are, let the moon tell you of your mystery if you want to know who you are, let the wind across your skin tell you of the pleasure of being you if…

    a tablet i shall have

    i want a drawing tablet. the end. lol. just thinking about creating and drawing on something electronic, completely free to try different techniques, tools, etc. sounds interesting and fun to me. getting funky with all kinds of colors, being able to erase things with a click, experiment with something completely new with a click, all…

    home in my body

    at a family gathering, someone asked me, so what do you eat? how do you stay in shape? it kind of surprised me, because i have not really been paying attention to these things. but i know that i’ve maintained a fairly healthy weight and muscle tone with very minimal effort. like none, really. my…

    the day my wardrobe exploded

    for a very long time, since some time in high school, which is about when i was… 14 years old, i decided that i would only wear skinny jeans. i resigned myself to this decision when i came to terms with the fact that i would never fit a relaxed pair of jeans properly aka…

    good for you, Grace 🙂

    i would like to start writing again. i would like to write more consistently. i would like to write. period. i think it really boils down to that. it’s so interesting how my mind takes something and warps it into something else, something not as fun, not as easy, not as natural. but it’s even…

  • Let’s Cry Together! Lol

    Let’s Cry Together! Lol

    Lately, I’ve been emotional. Like crying a lot. There’s nothing specific that I’m crying about again and again. I’m just crying when I feel things. And honestly, I am super loving it. I spent all of my high school through college through young adult years through my 20’s martyring myself –  without knowing it, as…

    My Freedom Belly – It’s a New Forever Thing

    Sweet liberation. I have a confession. It’s something I’ve been sitting for half my life – I’m 32 now. If you do the math, it started when I was in high school, sophomore-ish. I wanted to be seen, desired, liked. No, that’s not the confession. I would do things that would make me look a…
