  • Grrr

    This photo is like a visualization of my feelings this month. Vascilating between Grrr and Meh in equal measure. Work stresses, exhaustion and just some ennui have meant that for this month and most of the previous twelve or so (not sure how many but assume a lot) I’ve been generally ranty or miserable company.…

  • Spring

    Do they yearn to grow somewhere new each year? Do they hibernate under the surface dreaming of a new view? Are they disappointed when they emerge? Am I just projecting my unease on them? They came up in the same place as last year, just like me, not a lot has changed since they went…

  • Meaningless: A List

  • The Season

    It is too early in the tax year for me to be this exhausted and for my brain to turn mush. I haven’t even been working the same hours I was this time last year and yet, I feel twice as tired. Hopefully, this isn’t a sign of what is to come. This year was…

  • September 30th

    I am still trying to post something once a month, but this month flew by so I am sitting here with a migraine and nothing to say, instead how about some music, which sometimes helps with the migraines. In recognition of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, I’ll share a link to an Indigenous…

  • Review: 4 out of 5 Stars*

    This morning, as I do on most mornings, I was standing in my local coffee shop waiting for my order to be prepared and chatting with the staff. The owner came in staring at their mobile phone with a bit of a perplexed look on their face. When they noticed us looking at them, they…
