My Epic Birthday Weekend Fiasco
So Friday afternoon when I was supposed to be cleaning up and getting ready for the weekend, I decided I wanted to paint my nails. The top of the bottle of the color I chose was sealed shut.

The feedback I got was completely unexpected. I half hoped it would get buried in the feeds never to beContinue reading “Coming Out”
Open Letter to My Family

I have left the door open for when you choose to treat me differently and do theContinue reading “Open Letter to My Family”
