So I was recently Friend Dumped. (I know! WHAT THE H-E-DOUBLE-HOCKEY-STICKS?) It was a subtle dumping and I did not see it coming. I think I am working through the seven stages of grief about it, if the seven stages include obsessing about it, being mystified, and then worried and then — [...]

Dear Mole That I Had Removed Last Friday,

This is a quick post because I have a babysitter and I should be working, as in writing the actual book, but I need to write something that is not the book first because my writing muscle is rusty and sore and weak from taking a week off, if by a “week”, I mean “two [...]

You know what sucks? I will tell you: Pain. Pain sucks. It does! I know, who’d have thunk it? I’m just here to help spread the news.
