i yam who i yam
Let’s start with a spoiler alert, this is not about those “starchy edible tubers” that are kind of like a sweet potato, but not really. I will be talking about food, but again not the focus. Today is more about me just being me in an unapologetic socio kind of way. And of course, encouraging…

my personal oubliette
There are many days in my socio life that I want to be alone. Sometimes it’s all day, sometimes it’s for a few hours or even for a few minutes just to get away from all the noise in the world. I need to be alone in my own thoughts. I think it’s a trait…

the don’t touch me olympics
As a self-proclaimed socio, I don’t need or want a lot of contact. I get to decide who can touch me. Handshakes, hugs, massages are not my thing. When I do meet people, I don’t like to be touched. Covid was tough in so many ways but there were a few things about Covid that…

tummy full of cheese
In my socio mind, I don’t have a lot of happy places. I really don’t have a lot of happy in general. I am ok with that, really I am. Sometimes a person’s “happy place” is not being happy at all. Ironic but kind of funny. Sometimes your happy place is a generic place, like…

put a fork in my ear
How do you make someone stop talking? My socio soul has little voice that sometimes screams inside my head, “shut up, shut up, SHUT UP!” But the outside world cannot hear it. I wish I had the ability to not hear the person talking. I can sing la la la inside my head, but the…

i know i’m broken, don’t try to fix me
We all have our things, our story, our childhood trauma, that situation that makes us damaged humans. If you want, you can deny it but deep down there is something that makes you who are you and it might not be good. You don’t want to talk about it, not really. But if you do…

bad news zoom call
I want to talk about bad news. Well, I don’t really want to talk about bad news, that’s the point. Bad things happen, good things happen, nothing happens. In any situation I am perfectly fine with my socio self, not sharing anything, good or bad with the rest of the world. It’s kind of my…

life’s a bitch…
Life’s a bitch and then you die. Is death harder than life? We all know that life can be hard. But is dying the hardest part of life? I’m inclined to think that the act of dying is the hardest on the person doing the dying. It seems to make sense but upon more reflection,…
