Just another day at the office...

I have an ultra cool job, at least in the eyes of an 8 year old. I write for the entertainment industry. To the world outside of this bubble, it sounds glamorous. Although it has it's perks, it's a lot more average than people think. (and at my level, being freelance, the pay is equal to any other... Sign in to see full entry.

Forever doesn't seem so long...

I've asked you a million times to come to me. I've begged you. I've pretended to close my eyes and wait, while secretly moving closer to you... I placed every ounce of hope in how beautiful life could be, on the other side of you making an effort. Surely, if you stepped towards me, it would mean... Sign in to see full entry.

Gray...

Grey clouds hang in the sky. They hold within them, somewhere, rain. The rest of us go about life, grasping for thin air to inhale while the thick moist air, drawn in instead, instantly seems to suck the life right out of you. I stood outside, just off of the sidewalk, with my dog. She circled... Sign in to see full entry.

Spoon fed ...

There were parts of today which felt ripped right out of a slow-motion advertisement... After a major disappointment (for both my daughter & I) in not being able to swim in our pool, we came back inside to an even worse extension of the afore mentioned family drama. (aunt/evilness/china/texas/spite)... Sign in to see full entry.

Say cheese...

I am a photographer. It began as an artistic passion, but it seems I had a knack. While I prefer photographing places, or things, people seem to like for me to take snapshots of their a parties, weddings and children. I have made some money... Mostly I have had a lot of fun and taken a lot of... Sign in to see full entry.

Late night ramblings...

2 a.m. Can't sleep. It was one of those days where so much emotion, because of this ridiculous family drama, is just boiling forth. I miss my laptop. I want to write. I am a writer, it's what I do. I need to write. All of my projects are on there and so, as I muddle around in this boggy trench,... Sign in to see full entry.

When the bough breaks...

I have spent the day researching adoption. Our daughter is adopted. She is 8. We have had her since she was 4. We desperately want to raise a baby. We are pretty flexible. We don't care what the baby's ethnicity is, we aren't opposed to bringing home a child born addicted. We really are flexible.... Sign in to see full entry.

What else am I missing, here?

We live in a townhouse that I love. We live in a housing market that is depreciating by the second, (which I don't love.) I would move in a heartbeat, but it would be to flee the state, not my home. There are only two major problems with my house. 1) the woman adjacent to our home, on the left, is... Sign in to see full entry.

pissy...

It has just been that kind of day. As suspected, my family is just being really degrading about this trip to Texas. We are putting no one out, but I am just an easy target. That typically dampens my spirits, but it seems like there is a lot of that right now. I had a fight, last night, with a friend... Sign in to see full entry.

Raw

The road from you is paved with thistles and torturous " I told you so's " I swear it becomes longer and more overgrown each time my feet pad barefoot along this path. With each pass I remind myself "never walk this road again." My broken and bloody feet are already scarred, altered, from the times... Sign in to see full entry.
