Pretty sure darts were involved here One really awesome thing I've embarked upon recently is a rewatch of Star Trek: DS9, aka my favorite Star Trek series, one that is incredibly close to my heart. I first watched it about ten years ago, but have wanted to watch it again in its entirety ever
"Gemini" Shot March 22nd, 2008 // Canon Rebel XT I've decided to move my Throwback Thursday posts over to the blog. It will encourage blog traffic and help me from feeling quite so self-indulgent when I post old self-portraits on Facebook. It's funny, what's happened with
I've talked on this blog before about how difficult breakfast is for people pursuing a plant-based lifestyle or people who don't like/consume meat or dairy. Especially if, like me, you don't understand why people eat a) cereal and b) copious amounts of fruit. I really don't like e
caution; mood swings ahead Not really having the best week so far. I keep looking at the image above, which I took in Golden Gate Park on Easter Sunday, and try to let it calm me back to my happy place. It's not working. I feel like the grumpiest of Grumpy Cats. I feel useless, worthless, a
I've never really been one of those people who volunteers for stuff. One might say I'm fundamentally selfish, or at the very least, I'm "looking out for #1" aka myself. And that's true -- I won't deny it. I am not an altruist, and I accepted this about myself long ago.

cherry blossoms in Japantown Isn't it funny how getting back into the blogging groove can be so hard after an extensive break or extensive life changes? I've thought to myself "I have nothing to write about today" -- but thinking back, that never used to stop me. Why am I lett
Last weekend, on a sunny Saturday morning, I rolled out of bed fairly early, went to the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market, loaded up on spring veggies, and headed to the loft to make a proper spring brunch. And it.was.amazing. How could it not be? There's nothing like the first veggies of spring. I am
Springtime is the land awakening. The March winds are the morning yawn. —Lewis Grizzard Let me just get this much out of the way: It's been a long time, and much has changed. I stopped blogging largely because I am not ready -- and will likely never be willing -- to discuss it. I may
