Burritos can't bring the dead back to life, cure systemic autoimmune disease, or erase decades of trauma.
What burritos can do is feed and comfort you between bouts. 🥊
Highly recommend El Monterey frozen burritos. I sliced up an apple on the side, and now it's a meal. ♥️🌯🍎

All healthcare providers need trauma-informed training, period. It's one of the main reasons I've struggled for so long.
Yesterday I saw a therapist who kept interrupting me, demanding "But what are you DOING?" as if I'm not already doing everything I can for my conditions. I fired her on the spot.

I used to keep all my medications in a shoebox-sized storage bin that I pulled out every Sunday to fill my pillbox. Well, after many years of Tetris-ing as many bottles as I can into it, it’s happened!
I now take so many meds, I may need a storage unit.

It was so cold yesterday, the flowers from my best friend’s funeral died between the hall and everyone’s cars. I guess some part of me went to bed thinking mine would perk back up by morning, because when I woke up and they were still dead, it hit me.
She’s not coming back.
15 days gone.

In this year of 2026, can we all agree to stop with the endless engagement-bait posts?
"Audiobooks aren't reading..."
"Men writing romance are rapists..."
"No one releases Valentine's Day romances..."
It's exhausting, divisive, not creative, and doesn't foster community or reading.

Writing my best friend's obituary was hard, but it required me to focus on facts and stats, so I knew it'd be a little easier than writing her eulogy.
Just a little.
I wrote her eulogy this morning. Another writing project I never wanted to take on, yet at the same time wanted to.
11 days gone.

I’m pacing myself reading the Epstein files because everything I read is horrific—and that’s just the stuff we know about. As a SA survivor, I bear witness to these ugly truths, and keep measures to protect my own mental wellbeing.

I was wrong thinking I could do a show one week after losing my best friend, Sandy. I really wanted to escape into books with you all for a bit and catch up since it’s been a minute. Right now I need to pause and take care of me. There won’t be a show today, but I hope you’ll join me for the next. 🖤

Upped my modafinil and I still feel like I need a team of puppeteers to hold me up. Coffee is a thing I once loved that now dries me out and gives me zero boost. So I guess it's puppeteers!

The most insane thing about loss is you get like three bereavement days (if you're lucky) and still have to figure out what's for dinner.

From the moment I met Sandy, we were ride or die. I am so lucky to have known the purest of love.
