I’m afraid of being afraid that I have too many fears of—

1) You taking me too seriously and — — 2) I’m afraid of people who act like they know it all because they probably do and I’ll never catch up to their jam-packed wealth of knowledge stuff. 3) I’m afraid of rich people’s neighborhoods where they don’t have trash cans visible from the street because that tells me there…

A Letter to My Unconscious that Refuses to Come Out and Play

A humorous monologue to lighten the apocalyptic load — Why are you sitting there in the corner, refusing to budge? The world is out there. Go play with it, goddammit! The snow is falling. Why are you sitting there sulking? Get out! Go and be free! Get your barbies! Quit being a whiner and complainer! Have fun! Why is…

The Story of the Blanket

A pointless story that maybe has a point if you want it to — This is a story about a blanket. A blanket with a stain on it. The blanket would get smelly because only dogs used it. No humans ever wanted to use it because it had a big ole stain across one end of it and because it smelled, but the smell…

I Can’t Stand Running

a meditation on the art of being unapologetically yourself — I have always hated running. It’s so boring to me. The pounding on the pavement. The inability to think because all I’m thinking about is how much I hate running but recently someone told me how much they love it and how they love marathons and how they told me…

next stuff i’ll say when i have a large mic in my mouth (translation: open mic comedy night)

i really will say this stuff and if you don’t believe me, well, i can’t make you — version one (this is what NOT to do when on a dating app, people) here’s what you should NOT do when starting a convo on a dating app: me: hi, so tell me more about scuba diving. how’d you get into it at first? them: i got into the water. …

these are a few of my most likable things

sing to the tune of ‘raindrops on roses’ things that i like: the word ‘like’ more than the word ‘grateful.’ periods instead of commas. writing sometimes more than talking. my cats. my dogs. the way when i pick up ryan to kiss the side of his head, his body is…
