I have so much to say about so many things but now that I’m sat down and able to take the time to type them, I don’t know where to begin. I’ve been furloughed from work, which I expected to happen but not quite as soon as it has. While it isn’t the worst thing … More “Nobody wants to be here and nobody wants to leave.” – Cormac McCarthy
I was on the bus this morning, thinking about this blog and how I haven’t updated it in a while. I’ve had a lot of stuff going on but have been too overwhelmed to write about it. But that reflection got me thinking — what will happen to our digital identities when we (as a … More The Binary Code We Leave Behind
I love bones and anatomy. No, really; I love bones and anatomy (hence where the name of my blog comes from). I love bones and anatomy so much I wrote a poem about it once. Enjoy. Gothic Architecture Tarsals, metatarsals and phalanges grip lush turf, sustaining weight of skyscraping cathedrals. Standing at attention, the … More Bones & Anatomy
Things have been hard. By “things” I mean generally being overtaxed by the strain of trying to live up to all work, friends, family, life-in-general demands that are not in sync with my needs. It’s been just under two years since I received my autism diagnosis. I was not offered follow-up therapy. Instead, I was … More Comfortable Being Uncomfortable
I had a moving experience recently at a concert by an artist whose music is one of my “special interests.” I was on such a cloud of bliss during their show that kinda hit me between the eyes spiritually and politically. It dawned on me that I am afraid of all the things that matter, that … More Get Back Up And Do It Again
This is one of the most generic things to say but life has been very busy. Work. House. Work. House. Some sleep. Work. House. Some sleep. Redundantly busy. I feel like I haven’t accomplished much in this whirlwind but maybe I have and it’s just hard to see in the midst of the redundant blur … More Sometimes ‘busy’ just falls off your plate
I haven’t been sleeping very well. The burning sun rays that split the darkness of the room around 4am have been pretty invasive. And so have my thoughts. I was on vacation last week in a place geographically south of here. The sun rose around 7am. I would wake up around 6:30am, sit on the … More Earth Is the Most Beautiful Thing About Earth
I’ve mutually volunteered/been asked to do a presentation at work about autism in the workplace. I feel kind of excited about it but also a bit unsure of where to start. There are so many things to say but don’t want to say everything as to not overload people. A million questions swirling and consuming … More Speaking in Public
I’ve started and stopped about 5 different posts so far. I’ve had wretched writer’s block for around the last two months. I guess it’s because a lot has been going on since January and I haven’t really had the headspace or time to sit, think, reflect, feel with a keyboard in front of me. I … More “Writing about a writer’s block is better than not writing at all.” ― Charles Bukowski
Conscious I haven’t written about my autistic journey for some time, I sat down to write about my most recent misadventure involving my special interest in music, and how I may or may not have gotten myself into a little bit of a pickle around concert tickets out of fear I would miss out, spending … More The Moon, My Love
