I’ve taken the past four months to learn a lot about myself. For starters, there are so many things I could have done differently, and so many things that were just going to turn out the way they have, no matter what. I’ve learned that I have an Anxious Attachment style, and that doesn’t bodeContinue reading “Four Months of Learning”

There’s No Place Like Home, But Where is Home?
I’m back in my hometown of El Paso, Texas and it just doesn’t feel the same. I live in Tucson, Arizona now and that inevitably doesn’t feel like home either. What’s the saying? Oh yeah, a rolling stone gathers no moss. I’m starting to get it now. I think. Coming back to my hometown feelsContinue reading “There’s No Place Like Home, But Where is Home?”
How Did I Get Through That?
I’ve been sick as a dog since Wednesday. I stayed home from my teaching job that day, to recover. I had to drive 300 miles to my next gig the following day and I didn’t want to have to cancel it. I had chills, congestion, and a fever on Tuesday night. I was determined toContinue reading “How Did I Get Through That?”
I Have Been Up Since 3:30am
When I have trouble sleeping, I can never determine if it’s because I have too much on my mind or nothing at all. There’s no reason why I should be waking up at 3:30am for nothing!

I have had approximately twenty-two jobs over my lifetime. Not to pat myself on the back, but IContinue reading “I’m Doing It”

Storytelling; A Fading Art Form?
Earlier this month, another substitute teacher I work with, invited me to a storytelling event that was to take place on the next Saturday morning. I told him I’d be there to check it out, and at the cost of $Free.99, why not? On Saturday morning, I woke up to and jumped online to gatherContinue reading “Storytelling; A Fading Art Form?”
I’m Happy!
Here’s an update for the 1 reader of this blog; I’m no longer heartbroken! The love of my life and I made up and talked things through. We hit a bump in the road but were honest enough with each other to sort through it and address some issues that needed attention. I won’t dragContinue reading “I’m Happy!”
No One Will Read This
I come here to air my grievances. Things aren’t well. Financially, I’ve reached the point where I’ll have to get a job to support my standup comedy career. I’ve run out of cash flow. I have a few bookings left for the end of the year, but nothing that’s gonna really pay the bills. OhContinue reading “No One Will Read This”
