Blink an eye, say goodbye There’ll be time later Walk in the cold, sleep till I’m old The dishes need me again Rinse and repeat My morning routine What a life I live I guess one day things will change And I’ll love the life I live – Pack my things, grab my keys Work…

Dear Reader Vol. 2
I did it. I got a new job and I’m sticking with it. I’m still annoyed at how difficult growing up has been, but I think I’m starting to get the hang of things. I have a routine I’ve started, but it has its flaws. For instance, I haven’t worked out in a week. I’m…
Turning Twenty
Who knew it would be such a drag? You spend your whole life excited for what comes after school: freedom, money, relationships, travel, and whatever else we thought growing up would be.

He’s the worst
‘You’re psychotic’ ‘Is that a fact or opinion?’ ‘Opinion.’ she said ‘But if you want a fact’, she looked me in the eyes and stared hard before adding, ‘I hate you.’ I can’t say I’m surprised or even hurt by her words. It’s all true. I’ve been expecting this conversation for weeks now. If anything,…
Monsters Inside
Part 7: They Come From Inside. Roll the credits. Seriously, how many times do I need to say “monsters inside” in a story I wrote called “Monsters Inside?” I’m sure you get my point by now. You can’t see me right now, but I’m sighing as I sit in my favorite gaming chair that I’ve…
