It's exhausting. The uncertainty, consistently elevated heart rate, feeling like you're drowning. The anxiety that's fully justified, but there's no fix for the root of the problem; it feels like it's never going to end. I'm a very anxious person. I have over a decade's worth of knots in my back and a catalog of … Continue reading The One About Fear

2020 Vision
Oh look, it's almost 20 days into 2020 and I'm finally writing my first blog of the year! So much for regular blogging... Whatever. It's my website. I do what I want.

Poetry and Madness
I am a writer of many notebooks. I have 2 1/2 books filled with memories of the past 7 years; countless more pages hold a haphazard collection of short stories, songs, and scenes of plays that will never be seen. One book in particular often sits forgotten among many others. Unlike the others, this one … Continue reading Poetry and Madness

I hate my birthday. I'm not sure why, but sometime in my early teens, my childish excitement for leveling up in age turned into a somber remembrance for the years of life I've wasted. Maybe it's depression; maybe it's cynicism. Either way, it's a stupid way to look at it. You see, I have this … Continue reading On Getting Older
