Alarm Clock

Tomorrow morning I have to wake up at 6am, in order to leave my accommodation by 7am, in order to make my flight home. I hate waking up, especially when I’ve only slept a little. It’s 1am now. Whoops. If I sleep a lot and wake up naturally, then waking up is fine. It’s welcome. … Continue reading Alarm Clock

Slip Up

Whoops. I'm doing it again. Saying no. But no, it's no slip up. It's not a mistake. It's vacation and laughter and good times. It's friendship. Goodnight.

Insult

"You're going to hell," my brother said. "I'll see you there," I thought in my head. "No I'm not," I said instead. We were standing in a grocery store parking lot. Now a pagan and an agnostic, the premise doesn't matter, yet I haven't forgotten.

Just Say No

Fear, Pt. 2

There are few men in the world I’ve ever felt truly comfortable in the presence of. There are few people in the world I’ve ever really loved. There are few times in my life I’ve ever really tried. Men, love, failure due to incompetency. There are only a few things I truly fear. One day … Continue reading Fear, Pt. 2

Smoke, Fog, and Haze

I don’t know if I want to get married. I’ve questioned it for a while now, and I really don’t know. I don’t know if I want a partner like that, a person to share my life with. Does that make me a monster? I can see myself in one, five, ten years from now. … Continue reading Smoke, Fog, and Haze
