it’s one of those days when I come home and soon hit the couch not waking up until 10 PM when I have a nightmare that C. gives away our smallest cat Kalika to a friend in our building without saying anything “she was annoying,” she tells me afterwards I start smashing my fists into…… Continue reading bad dreams

mind off of work
letting the world know I have a life outside of work… a coffee poem chopped in half by hunger and a grumble grumble for Thai food the new opening a spot where you enter and have to pinch yourself thinking maybe you’re not in Roanoke anymore sun that comes in heavy shifts across to the…… Continue reading mind off of work
pressures
what an utter disaster today is turning out to be. hoping for stability in this line of work is to invite devastating disappointment. c. doesn’t even have to ask any more; it’s only, “what did they do this time?” I swear, I’m baffled that these people can even tie their damn shoes in the morning.…… Continue reading pressures
