“Hey! Do you know about Duffy?” “What’s a Duffy?” Louise came to visit me a few years ago while I was stationed in Hawaii. If you know Louise, you know she’s a pretty huge Disney fan so we obviously had to make a trip to Disney Aulani while she was there. She explained that Duffy …

So it just occurred to me that most of the reason I even started this blog was that it was supposed to be therapeutic. This blog has become just another thing on my Anxiety Avoidance list and I’d like to change that. Back in the days of Xanga and old tumblr (apparently tumblr is still …
My friends pretty often tell me that I have too many ideas and that I’m bouncing all over the place. This isn’t anything new to me. About this time last year I went on terminal leave. This is me at NEST CoWork. I spent a lot of time here after work trying to figure out …
I have a knack for remembering really obscure random things. For the past month or so I’ve (tried to) take a break from Facebook.
