Where The Painful Things Go

The things that you find when ya ain’t AT ALL looking for them, geesh. My closet door wouldn’t close, and kept creaking and coming open. So I had to take these boxes out, and re-arrange them. In one of the boxes is Tim’s records, notes, receipts etal from that year and some – ephemera from a life of pain and sadness. So I had to … Continue reading Where The Painful Things Go

More On Organizing A Mess

If there is one important lesson in life I’ve learned, is how to organize mess. I can never say that Library Tech course I took @ Fanshawe College all those years ago was entirely wasted. Two years (almost) at the local library, then POOF!!! All the jobs disappear, casual pool cut, me gonzo… and I almost, barely just got my foot in that door permanent…but … Continue reading More On Organizing A Mess

  • Of Superpower, Wealthy White Boys, Botox’d Stepford Poodles and Hope
    I think each of us has our own superpower. A thing we do with uncommon skill. It often, I’ve discovered, takes a good while to find, or accept, or understand, or feel. It’s different in everyone, how it manifests, and when. Often, or just as often, we are tricked into believing that our superpower is the thing we are maybe most known for. However, over …
  • Lessons on Resilience from Canadian Solidarity
    I’m an American citizen who grew up in Canada—because why settle for a normal childhood when you can have a frosty mix of hockey, maple syrup, and universal healthcare?
