What got me to where I am today… 1/3

It is very early… Freakin’ dang early when you finished working at midnight the night before, but I had to do this before going back to sleep. I offered, a while ago, to publish any unspoken pain you Lovelies might have carried on your shoulders, not ready or comfortable publishing on your own blog. I…… Continue reading What got me to where I am today… 1/3

I knew it.

I am not a yay-let’s-go-shopping girl, but sometimes, I just need to. So I put my walking shoes on, filled my bottle of water, and I…… Continue reading A good year…

What did your father do?

For a living, that is. I froze… What job was my dad doing when I was a child? He could have been a doctor, a singer… He could have driven big trucks, leaving for weeks at a time, being a truck driver. He could have been a taxi driver, or played in “Taxi driver”, then…… Continue reading What did your father do?

Something’s wrong…

At the office. Alone. It is time for supper, and tonight I am feasting on a not that exciting bowl of Hamburger Helper. To make it more… To make it less…  Hmmm. I decided to go get some ketchup from the building’s cafeteria. The two maintenance employees were lunching together. It is a little special…… Continue reading Something’s wrong…
