Writer, editor, poet, educator, spinster, humanist, voracious reader. Celebrate kindness and compassion. I also really freaking love macaroni and cheese. ♠️
Do I have countless unused journals? Yes.
Did I need another journal? No.
Did I need the dopamine provided by purchasing a new journal? Apparently.
*Gazes lovingly at the new journal before tossing it onto the pile of unused journals*

@elchandler I'm not a big fan. I don't understand the idea of celebrating with explosions. I don't quite get the appeal of loud booms and high-pitched squeals and rapid pop-pop-popping -- noise for noise sake. They're neat to see on occasion but don't get the appeal.
@BranwenOShea What scares me the most is that there are so many people who celebrate the decision and all the other chaos we've seen. I question whether we all live in the same America. I have an extremely difficult time being patriotic to a country ruled by people who celebrate hate.
Coming out of my hermitage and spending time with my best friend reminds me of how absolutely blessed I am. Friendship is something I will never take for granted.
@iamkatmann @havehadhavehad I am so terribly sorry for such a tremendous loss. You captured the WTF of grief so beautifully here! I adore this for its complexity simply disguised.
Went on a late-night insomnia-inspired deep-dive into the published works of my grad-siblings. It reminded me that I haven't written anything in a While (capitalized for emphasis). Imposter syndrome is real; I just know that nothing I write will ever be as delicious as theirs.
