I kid you not, yesterday, I ordered a T-shirt that says, "OMG Please make it stop 2020". I feel like we have all been cast, without our permission, in a reality show. I imagine alien abductions are down because who the hell wants us anyway. Poor Canada. I heard they...

Yesterday, I felt heavy. The discomfort was palpable. Instead of the four seasons, 2020 has become the season of a pandemic sprinkled with protesting. The pandemic could have waited but I suppose if we are going to have a shit show, that certainly makes it more...

Good glory, friends. I feel like the universe keeps chanting, "hold my beer" anytime there is an inkling of a reprieve. Apparently, it is possible to protest during a pandemic, but obviously, not using six feet of social distancing. I think my sense of humor is...

Friends, I have had a rough couple of days. It is a very long story, but the Cliff Notes version is that my mother wandered outside at 11:00 P.M. Sunday night convinced that there were people in her home. This isn't the first time and I am so grateful for her next...

I am the type of person to slowly emerge myself into a pool while others, without checking the temperature, take the plunge. The shock of the cold soon wears off and they enjoy the benefits of the water while I am still sitting on the side allowing myself to adapt. It...

Twenty-eight years ago today, I married my spouse. Woah. That is a really long time to be with one person particularly with all the shit we have been through. Plus, it took me marrying him in two other ceremonies on top of the first one, to lock it up. Marriage is not...
