Me and Coffee and My Public

Waves of Melancholy
Pin itMelancholy + Jenny = not a match. Right? People expect “peace and sparkles”. Right? What most people don’t know, about me, is my inescapable bent toward being/feeling/seeing the negative. Glass half-empty. Since I was a wee one. The “peace and sparkles” you see here has been a strategy for me to become a positive [...]
My brain… send help.
Pin itI got this text from my friend, Trish recently… I remember before the party I couldn’t find my keys. Normal. They always turn up. Why yes… yes they do. Even sometimes IN the birthday presents our children give at parties. Then there was this one time I almost missed a flight. Which is not abnormal. [...]
Desk of Despair & Discouragement
Pin itIt never fails. I clean my desk. And then… and then… I can’t even write, it is so horrible… There are empty contact boxes to serve as a reminder I need to order new contacts. There are bills… Notes about this event or that event… Fundraiser forms… Computer cords… Earphones and a Shuffle [...]
Goofing-off and/or working

Nothing mind-blowing… Unless one [...]
The last post before IT happens.
Pin itNot to make this post all about me… Let’s start over. Um. How about that aging, ehh? Well, the calendar and historic records say tomorrow marks the first day of the last year of my thirties. PRACTICALLY THE WORST DAY OF MY LIFE. Which causes me great distress and angst. Little background… It was [...]

Spotted: Somewhere between Albuquerque and Dallas
Pin it I just really like this picture. I took it from my window seat when I was flying to DFW on Southwest Airlines… On my iPhone, and filtered it through Instagram. I have no idea what filter. Wanna know something that no one knows about me? I have a bit of a fear of [...]
