I break at the bend…

I would like to go ahead and call myself a fool.
A big lying fool.
A) I’m a liar, because for all my talk about not wanting a relationship, I’m jumping at the chance to maybe possibly date this guy.
B) I’m a fool because I know it won’t workout. Why? Because I’m crazy. I really think I [...]

We never are what we intend, or invent

It’s 2:30 am. Again. Seems like all I do is stare the clock down during these dark hours. I never blink, and neither does he.
I’d like a break from me. A little vacation. Where I have no past. A vacation where I don’t have to remember every embarrassing moment of my life in vivid detail. [...]

She said everybody wants to be here

here where there’s no one else around…

I laid in bed last night and I stared at Mr. Bear. I’ve had him ever since I can remember. I have a picture of me when I’m 3. I’m sitting on the fireplace holding Mr. Bear. He’s bigger than I am. I named him Mr. Bear because that’s [...]

2005

I follow a few blogs pretty faithfully. In the past few weeks they’ve written letters to their 1989 and high school selves. Granted I only graduated high school a few years, but I certainly have a few things to say to myself.

OBAMACARE AND ME
By Zane F Pollard, MD

So you keep the hope you get your day, yeah

so my mom has lung cancer. Probably. They found a mass today. We go to a pulmonologist sometime this week.
I keep thinking it’s a mistake, and it’ll be fine.
I wanted to ask her if she had a good life insurance policy. I think that means i’m a terrible person. Really I was thinking about the [...]

Impossible means nothing to me

She sat in the chair on the screened in porch. Stared out into the landscape. But she didn’t see a thing that was there. She lost herself in thoughts of long ago. Somehow one thought lead to another that lead to another, and she was full circle.
But you’ll never know her. You won’t know what [...]

I think I give him too much credit

I thought he would have called or texted. Maybe  I give him too much credit and I’m putting all my eggs in his basket. Maybe I should move home….
