  • Dear Mom

    Dear Mom

    It is my Mom’s birthday today, and I forgot. Usually I would send her flowers, write her a poem, or make her something cheesy that only she would like. One year I made her felt flowers, each pedal listing a reason why I loved her. More popular gifts involved trips to the dollar store down…

  • What is your Mission?

    What is your Mission?

    Mission (as defined in the 1937 Webster English Dictionary):  (5.) The business of an agent, messenger or ambassador. (7.) Extra religious services for stimulating faith and zeal.

  • You already know I love you, but Merry Christmas

    Costco, gingerbread houses, and Justin Bieber were all a part of my Christmas this year. I loved every second of it. My family has always had a nontraditional way of celebrating the holidays.

    Forced

    Forced Out in the shadows, In the depths of the night, My feet pound down the path Of the misty moonlight. Although the night lives on, With creatures who fear the day, I run deep into their shadows, Let come what may. The pounding of my feet, Evolves into cadence, And drowns out the thoughts…

    Iz Ze End of Ze World

    The French have declared war on us. The French have declared war on us.  Us? You mean the Americans?  No. The French have declared war on the world.  We live in an unfortunate world where Donald Trump is President of the United States (which actually may be our reality this year) and is deporting all…

  • Trying to Catch Up Over Here

    Everyone seems to have their own website now, so I’m jumping on that train. The hardest part of creating a website is deciding your content. You want to be creative and fun, but that is a lot of work and I don’t have time for that. I know at first it will be a bit…
