The suffering of fools…

Sara

Heeey. We’re halfway into March. I’m so fucking tired. We’re hurtling headfirst into a global pandemic, it’s an election year. I won’t even bother asking what else could make shit terrible, because the world will let me know in the next five minutes anyway. Ech. In other news… I was reading something that referenced a song by The Killers and it got me thinking about the handful of songs they have on the Drive List… Keep reading…The suffering of fools…

Ten…

Sara

Ten. Years. I always have so many things I want to say on this date, but when I start to write it out, it never quite comes out the way I want it to. Some things are just best left short and sweet. There have been a lot of ups and downs and a whole lot in between. This has been the greatest decade of my life because I’ve spent it with him.    … Keep reading…Ten…

Sara

Summer lasted an eternity and my mental state took a brutal beating. September arrived, bringing hoodie weather and other good things, but the news cycle somehow felt even more dire than it has been these last two years and I am not processing it well at all, no matter how much I try to limit and filter things down. I have exactly zero faith that the “Blue Wave” will happen, or solve anything if it… Keep reading…Away from this place…

Lack of oxygen…

Sara

Ever have a house guest that overstays their welcome and just WILL. NOT. LEAVE. Insomnia is an unwelcome house guest that WILL. NOT. LEAVE. I know at least part of it is stress related (OMFG THE NEWS FFS), but I know that’s not the entire cause. I just don’t quite know what the other specific contributing factors might be at this point. FNEH. It’s approaching two in the morning, my room temperature tea is almost… Keep reading…Lack of oxygen…
