Dimanche Fille

  • Work has been stressing me out. But when I feel the tension in my neck and my heart beating hard enough that my Oura ring thinks I’m doing a Power Yoga session (No joke – every day at work this week, it’s logged it as Yoga), I take a deep breath and just remember how…

  • I’m not here to tell you what to do. This (thankfully) isn’t my early 2000s yahoo forum, “Ask Kayla”. I simply want to tell a story that’s my own, although I’m sure many of you can relate. The perfect body. It’s what I’ve always wanted since I had my first Barbie. But it took nearly…

    Strings Attached

    Thank God I started running again. My heart pounded in my ears as I ran down the carless road. Where was everyone? It only made his cackling louder as it echoed off the buildings. I chanced a glance behind me, hoping I wouldn’t trip over myself. The puppet was still chasing me. You’re probably wondering…

  • a eulogy to my TBR pile

    It started with high hopes and unrealistic New Year goals. But things aren’t looking great – and although it’s only mid-year, I think it’s time to accept my to-be-read pile, will not-be-read. I blame it on the cat book. “I am a Cat” by Soseki sounded like such a great idea to start off the…

  • give me more time

    I lost my tooth yesterday, but I don’t want to talk about that. What’s actually bothering me (other than my reflection in the mirror lately), is that I’m not reading as much as I’d like. I was going to say, “as much as I do”, but I actually do want to read more so that…

  • I’m thinking of bringing back some blog posts. Hence, this post. I have things to say, but not enough ears in my actual life to feed. It’s not like it’s anything profound – it’s honestly the most mundane topics that I want to talk about. I journal too, but this feels like a step up…

    Top 5 Reads in 2025

    You guys… I did not reach my reading goal of 30 books last year. And it wasn’t like I was off by 1 or 2 books, I only read 18 books. With that said, it was still 18 books. I shouldn’t shame myself too much. I actually have a good reason why my nose was…

    Judgment

    I was in the airport bathroomWhen I realized my panties were inside out.Did it matter?Probably not.But in that narrow and crowded stall – you know, where you have to squeeze against the toilet to get the door closed, I took off:my shoes,my pants,and my panties.Because I knew,somehow,They would all realize somethingjustwasn’tright. © 2025 November, Kayla Macias

    A Sinner’s Sonnet

    As I sit in flames in the depths of Hell,I burn. But I also ponder, Why me?It was a shock not to rise when I fellIn darkness where I could do naught but scream.And as the blood-drenched gates creaked open wide,A paralytic fear overtook me,When a wrathful fire gripped each my sides,Dragged me in for…
