I have photos of myself turning 30, but I just look sad. I’m not sad to turn 40, as you can see, but I’m a little confused that I managed to live this long AND become ordinary. Midlife crisis? Two things I’m not good at: planning outings and taking selfies. I’m going to try doing … Continue reading The Latter Half of Life: Neptune Square Neptune

I am Pisces Rising: Narrative 2
Today I had a grilled cheese and jam sandwich for lunch and I sat down at a table outside the Daley Center. An older gentleman sat at my table.
