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.

Staring straight ahead, the subway rider is completely disengaged from the conversation happening next to her. Her companion to her left is completely animated, gesticulating when she talks, while their male companion nods along with a small smile. Her hair is up in a ponytail that is half pulled through its black hair tie into…
Adventure Time VA
Hey Y’all! I am fresh back from the wilds of Virginia and by the “wilds” of Virginia I mean I am back from four days of lazing on a Chesapeake Bay beach and drinking way too many frozen refreshments. But such an idyllic time is not complete without a horror story to accompany it, so…
Hey Numbnuts

Coffee and Knees
She put her empty deli coffee cup into her bag, a few napkins stuffed into the opening to prevent the one or two drops of precious caffeine that even the most experienced and addicted of coffee drinkers cannot shake from the cup. The bag is a monster of a leather purse that takes up almost…

Interlocking
Fitbit on one wrist, a black hair tie around the other, she is ready for the day. She scratches her scalp with two painted nails before tightly interlocking them on her lap, but only for a few moments. She separates them and rests the right hand on top of the left. Then rubs at her…

It is unprofessional, annoying, and disappointing. My only explanation is that it has been very hectic at work and I am at the tail end…
