    In conversation with friends this evening I was talking about my counseling and my one friend asked if I ever got emotional during the sessions. I wasn’t sure how to answer at first, so I tried to get clarification. Did they mean talking about emotional issues? Nope, they meant, did I ever cry during the…

  • Out of Office

    I booked a holiday. No, I booked a trip. It is a holiday for me, but since it isn’t to a tropical or foreign destination and I won’t be staying in hotels or doing touristy things I assume most people wouldn’t call it a holiday exactly. I am going to go visit friends. I am…

(Isn’t that just how the diary entries go, bizarrely conversational as if writing inane letters to your future self about the mundanity of your current life.) I’ve…

  • Sunday Song – Italian Edition

    I’ve been watching a show set in Italy which obviously has lovely music it in, even though I do not speak Italian I still enjoy the music.

  • How To Have A Nervous Breakdown

    Step one: take your entire life and just throw it into a blender. Step two: pretend like everything is totally fine while moving closer and closer to the edge. Step three: … Actually, I don’t know – how do you have a nervous breakdown? Is there a guide? Am I supposed to do certain things…
