Hot chocolate to soothe my sore throat and the annoyance I feel at my favorite book genre constantly getting dumped on.

I love being sick enough that I feel crappy, but not so crappy that I feel justified in going home.

Got a "thinking of you" text and burst into tears, so naturally it's time for my new favorite game: am I feeling a genuine emotion, or is it the perimenopause? 🤪

I had a first date today, and I need to quickly harness these butterflies and get some writing done before I pedulum swing back to "romance is dead."

Dating is the woooooorst. I know I complain about this a lot, and if there were literally any other way to meet a man, trust me, I would be doing it. My voice note was me saying I woke up unusally early that morning and took a nap on my couch, btw. Sexy stuff.

I had a friend take a picture of me for my dating profile (c'mon, guys, I was never making it to Oct. 1st) so it's not all selfies, and I can't decide if it's worth using or not. I am at the point of overthinking all of it.

So, I used to be/am sometimes a poet, and this is my most recent free-verse collection. It's rare that I promote my (non-haiku) poetry. I should probably do so more, but it all feels too old. I should write new stuff, but to do that, I think I'd need more new experiences. (Cover by VividCovers)

She'd be impressed with my amazing girls, that I'm a good mom, and that I've picked myself up off the floor so many times when life felt too difficult to manage. She wouldn't be disappointed, but saddened by the divorce and the fact that I'm alone. Mostly, she'd be extatic that I'm not a virgin.
