Greetings and salutations! Thought I would give y'all a bit of a progress report as to what's going on. I still have NOT heard back from the NYTimes. Honestly, it's like I'm a student checking to see if I've been admitted into the Ivy League school of my choice. I really, REALLY want this.Now, don't... Continue Reading →
Shooting My Shot
Greetings and salutations! I'm trying to write more regularly since during the pandemic, I apparently have all the time in the world. Anyway...getting right to it. I saw this guy on Star Trek: Discovery, and he looked familiar. I'm very good with faces, so it looked like a guy who went to the same gym... Continue Reading →
It’s been a minute
Greetings and salutations! Alas, we're still in the middle of a roaring pandemic, BUT there are vaccines on the way. Plural! Hopefully 2021 will bring us to a semblance of a normal life when all is said and done. Being single has been incredibly tough during this time. It's totally disrupted my routines and caused...

The Prodigal’s Father and Hope for Dinner
Greetings and salutations!!! I'm writing this a couple of weeks, (give or take) from my birthday. I think birthdays are a good time to take stock and reevaluate your life. Just as New Year's is a good time to take stock of where you want to go for the calendar year, a birthday is a... Continue Reading →
“If We Shadows Have Offended…”
Greetings and salutations!!! 2020 and all the confusion continues, and I'll definitely talk more about Pride and Black Power in a subsequent entry. Moving on is a momentous step--no matter how it's done. Ending relationships, taking leaps forward without a safety net, but having the training necessary to do what is required in order to...

USE YOUR WORDS!!!
This is going to be a very short, very direct, and very punchy entry (well, short is a relative term for me). During this time of quarantine and pandemics, we all realize that life is short. It can change at the drop of a dime. Everything that we've known can be upended. Now is not... Continue Reading →
A Year Later…
Greetings and salutations!!! I hope everyone is coping as well! It's been about a year, give or take a couple of weeks since I started writing this blog. It's been about a year since I've been seeing a mental health professional. And it's been about a year since I've had the rupture with my former... Continue Reading →
Falling in Love
Hey, greetings and salutations! There's so much going on in the world today, and I wanted this post to be a place where we could ignore that for the time being. Granted, it's going to be there for a while, but I think that the bombardment of news from social and news media has the... Continue Reading →
Remnants and Shadows
I wake up, and I feel tired, with just pieces of my dream that I can barely remember. But I think...it's about him. The frustrating thing is that I can't be sure. I can't be sure because everything that is happening in my dream state is cloudy and blurry. It's a haze of darkness and pallid hues; somewhere between the fine line of transluscence and and clarity. It's like the moment while the sun is shining but the fog is still out. It's incredibly frustrating.
