I figured out how to fix our country! It’s simple, really. Twenty-foot Skeletons! It’s genius. Yes, you read that correct. 20ft skeletons in the front yard of every American household. And I’m not talking about a Halloween prop. This is a year-round magical experience for everyone in the neighborhood to …
Twelve months ago, to the day, we were allowed to have a shot and a beer at the bar. Now, we wear Halloween masks on a daily basis. We buy hand sanitizer by the gallon. Is that just me? Many of us who work with the public, strip our clothes …
I wrote a series of books a few years ago that no one wanted to read. Don’t fret. My internal therapist told me to get over it. It’s on ongoing process; though an occasional tear still falls. Apparently, that’s what happens when you put all your effort into something with …
In case you’ve been living on Uranus for the past year, you are well aware of this pandemic virus breakout thinga-ma-doogie (it’s a technical term); and how a bunch of drunk parents are teaching their kids the old way of solving math problems. Genius! Are you aware of the old …

We were moving out of state. All the signs were in place. The machine started its engine and cogs gained momentum. Dragonflies emerged from watery depths and followed us as though they were tethered to our shoulders. (Many cultures consider the presence of a dragonfly to represent change or transformation.) …
Over the weekend, I attended a social distancing graduation party. And by social distancing, I mean that I sat behind a six-foot folding table that separated me from everyone else. People are dirty. Seriously. While sitting like a social hermit on the other side of the garage, I attempted to …
