Now that Black Friday and Cyber Monday are over I think we've reached critical mass when it comes to holiday releases. While I did make a few purchases during the sales (mostly gifts for other people, I swear!), there's a metric fuckton of things I won't be purchasing because I couldn't possibly care less. This...

Natural deodorant: the good, the bad and the smelly
I mentioned last month that I was trying a natural deodorant, and despite my struggles, I’m still on the natural train. At this point, I’ve tried several different brands and formulas, and I think I’ve learned some things that may (or may not, who knows?) be helpful to you, my internet friends. I’ve already talked...

Home again, home again
Happy Saturday internet friends! I'm sitting in my childhood room with Dan snoring next to me. We've been here all weekend for Thanksgiving, and as much as I've enjoyed being home and seeing the family, I'm ready to go home to Albany. Which we're supposed to do at the crack of dawn tomorrow. I've been... Continue Reading →
Review: It’s Skin Hyaluronic Acid Moisture Cream
Wow, I can't believe I'm writing an actual review. It's been a minute. So, I've been using this moisturizer for a few weeks, and I have some thoughts.

Their show is a “fantasy”, they have... Continue Reading →

I think by now you’ve picked up on the fact that I like fantasy novels. Also history, and sometimes legends. So it’s no surprise that when I walked by this book at my local library I was immediately intrigued. The Arthurian legends have fascinated me since I was a kid, and the more I learn...

All aboard the struggle bus! Or boat. Or train. It’s your choice.
It's been brought to my attention that it's November 12, and I've only posted twice in this entire month. Not that I necessarily needed the reminder because, as any writer/blogger/creative type knows, when we aren't creating, we're thinking about creating. Stressing about it. Allowing it to hang over our heads like big grey storm clouds.... Continue Reading →
Election Day 2018 and a MAC wishlist
I don't really get political in my blog posts. Despite what day today is, that's not going to change. Sorry, not sorry. As much as I like debating policy and having engaging, interesting discussions with people about our views, that kind of thing has become really difficult over the past few years. I know what...
