• What’s in a nickname? Nothing really.

    What’s the story behind your nickname? I don’t really have any nicknames. I had one when I was a kid…my dad called me a weird one and still did well into my adulthood. If I was still in contact with him now, I’m sure he would still call me that. There was a teacher in… →

  • I Do What I Want

    What strategies do you use to maintain your health and well-being? Health and well-being today, huh? Well, I can tell you what I don’t do, and that is simply this: I don’t do what I don’t want to do. And I try to drink enough water. Plus I take a multivitamin every day now. After… →

  • Who is this person?

    “I am that person now…” When I get an idea for a post, I create a new post and type my ideas and then save the draft for later. The phrase up above is something I typed recently. The thought came to my mind as I’ve spent time reflecting on who I am. If you’ve… →

  • Hangover Cure

    What’s your go-to comfort food? All the questions about food! Sheesh! Can we move on from this tomorrow please? If not, I’m going to really stretch it so I have an answer not about food. Just sayin’… With that said, I have to really think about this one. What is a comfort food to begin… →

  • Not a Bother

    What bothers you and why? What bothers me is vague prompts like this. There are a lot of circumstances surrounding what bothers me. For example, what time of day is it? Better yet, what day of the week is it? Because if it’s Monday at 6:50 am when my alarm goes off for me to… →

  • Something to Look Forward To

    What are you most excited about for the future? I don’t have big plans for the future anymore. Well, I mean one day I’d like to be a published author (that gets paid). And I am pretty excited about that possibility. But in the short term, I’m most excited about this Friday. True, it’s my… →

  • Coca-Cola Was Onto Something

    What could you let go of, for the sake of harmony? This question is asking about me personally and what I could let go of. But honestly, I think all of us could let go of a few things. Gesturing around at the state of the world (my country especially included), I think we could… →
