I suck at "about me" summaries. I have an MFA in Creative Writing and I love to write. I used to sling coffee for a living, but now I am an administrative assistant. I am the friend who wanders around the world with little to no filters and blurts out every funny story idea that comes to me, but if I don't write them down immediately I forget. I can make almost anything sexual. I love reading Scorpio stereotypes.

Night vs Day
The train at night is different. The exhaustion is different. In the morning it’s a cranky uncaffeinated bone deep tiredness.

Let’s talk about the fact that, without trying, I can list five people on one hand who I personally know and care about who have been sexually assaulted,…

Badass
My first thought upon seeing her is: badass. Her hair is buzzed short and bleached blond, one shade below white blond. Her headphones curl around the backs of her ears like secret service ear wigs and her makeup is simple and artistic. She does not look like a flawless doll, but her eyebrows are dark…
Average Every Day Adventure Time
It really is easy to forget that I live in New York City. That might seem hard to believe, but even when I was living in the Financial District for an academic year, it was not difficult to get completely caught up in life and the rush and forget about location. I can remember coming…

Christening The Boyfriend
Hi All! A quick little note here. I told The Boyfriend that I wanted to have a cool, fun nickname for him to use on the blog and he agreed to help me come up with one. I had a few suggestions, they mostly revolved around goats, an ongoing joke in our relationship, but as…
