Some days are physically exhausting, while other days are mentally exhausting. This doesn’t even include days that are emotionally exhausting. If you get all three days in a row, you are just plain fucked. I haven’t had all three in about a week. Today was mentally and emotionally exhausting. I love puzzles, and I love…

Is it possible for two people to be linked in a way they could not have imagined? Everyone remembers quantum entanglement from their grade-school quantum physics class, right? This isn’t Star Trek where they actually have shit like that; it’s a joke. It could very well be possible though. Being three-dimensional creatures in a three-dimensional…

How many times can a person fuck up in their life before they run out of second chances? I know, you technically only get one second chance. The next one is the third, but quit being a dick. There’s a point here. People go through phases in life. Some people get lucky enough to marry…

Some people wear their emotions on their sleeves. You would have to be blind to not see the emotions these people are feeling. It doesn’t matter if they are happy, sad, angry, or any emotion on the spectrum, you’ll know what it is. I’m not one of those people. In fact, I do not emote…

There is this philosophical view that there cannot be light without darkness, or darkness without light. Maybe it’s true, but when we measure our life in dark moments and light moments, we do not need to experience darkness to know it exists.

There was a saying when I was a kid: “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but whips and chains excite me!” Wait, that’s not quite how it went. Ah! “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never harm me.” Granted, words did hurt. It was a bit of a nursery rhyme…

We all have a certain amount of bullshit that we put up with on a daily basis. This world is full of stupid, arrogant, and otherwise useless people that seem to have nothing better to do than try and ruin our day. What happens, though, when these people live with you. How much of that…

Every single person on the planet goes through multiple life-changing events throughout their lives. They are born. They die. Those are two of the most extreme life-changing events, but there are many others in between. The lost of parents, children, siblings, spouses, etc. are some of the most painful slaps in the face the universe…

How many rollercoasters can a person ride in a day? A week? A year? Sure, if you’re talking about amusement parks, it depends on the constitution of their stomach. What about emotional rollercoasters? How many of those can a person handle? Are they quick rollercoasters that are done in short order, or do these rollercoasters…

How can someone that I’ve never met seem more concerned with my wellbeing than people who live with me every day? I use the word “seem” to give the people living with me the benefit of the doubt. (To be fair, my boys were at their mother’s the week of my surgery.) After surgery, I…
