Tuesday Tirade: Valentine’s Day

Did you think I was going to go on an Valentine’s rant? Well … Maybe, as a poet, I should pen an anti-Valentine’s poem. Well … Is there too much pressure on Valentine’s day?

Thursday Thoughts: Either Or (Or, what I’ve learned after watching a World Cup game . . . oops, match)

Either football players are either very, very good … actors? Or, Football players are very, very …fragile? Here’s a [clears throat] true story [rolls eyes]. I was at the store the other day when another customer passed me in the aisle, their long coat brushing against my leg. I immediately dropped to the floor clutchingContinue reading “Thursday Thoughts: Either Or (Or, what I’ve learned after watching a World Cup game . . . oops, match)”
