The Adventures of a 40-something-year-old With No Clue Or Direction
Me trying to get over the dreaded fatigue, and Aria just being cute. A few weeks ago, I told you about my Mounjaro journey. Well, today I took my 52nd shot. I've been on this medicine for one year! It's been quite the roller coaster. On the downside, I've lost SOOOOO much hair. Then I've... Continue Reading →
In need of a haircut. I like how my little grey hair decided to come out front and center. So my Summer II course ended yesterday with me turning in my final at 7pm. When I came back to work from lunch today, I noticed my instructor had graded it. It's always a scary feeling... Continue Reading →
It’s 1:26am, July 4, 2025. I’m sitting here 4 beers in, watching Elizabethtown. I’ve always loved this movie. It’s a sweet story. The soundtrack is badass. I’ve seen this movie a good 20 times, if not more. I just realized something. The part where Dora takes Drew upstairs to show him pictures of his family,... Continue Reading →
Last week right about this time I was in a state of numbness. I had just wrapped up another semester of grad school. One of my cousins had just passed away. My work has been in a constant shift of uncertainty lately. But through it all, I was still looking forward to seeing another of... Continue Reading →
Sorry! I've been absent for 2 months from around here! Totally not intentional. The Alexanders have way too much going on lately. Lots of things are not going well at our house. It seems like when one thing finally goes right, ten other things go wrong. We're not backing down, but it just sucks. Taking... Continue Reading →
Soooo, last week was my 45th birthday. I'm 45, ya'll!!! I used to swear up and down that if I Iived to see this age, I would throw myself a quinceañera x 3. But of course that didn't happen. With all the stuff I have going on right now, there's no way I could've done... Continue Reading →
The last couple of months of 2024 were a challenge for me on the personal front. I was hit hard. So much that it forced me to take some extreme action - I took my tail back to counseling. Anyways, throughout those two months, I had time to find some things that have been suppressed... Continue Reading →
Once upon a time, this one dude I happened to cross paths with in life told me, “Vas a terminar sola porque eres muy rebelde.” Of course there’s more context to the story, but in that moment I just answered, “I don’t care.” And I meant it. You see, somewhere along the line I reached... Continue Reading →
Everyone always asks, “Why does the villain have to be so evil?” No one asks, “What happened to the villain to make her be this way?” Most times, the villain was once a good person who was wronged, mistreated, and hurt. The villain was so broken she had no choice but to take all her... Continue Reading →
My poor baby. Miss Aria has been struggling a bit these past few weeks. She's been learning the hard truths about humans. She's had to deal with friends not being very friendly. She's learned the hard truth that she may be loyal, but that loyalty might not always be reciprocated. She wouldn't intentionally hurt anyone,... Continue Reading →
