Her thoughts, written
Your eyes consistently take my breath away. Several years in their sight and I still stumble in their presence. I never before thought much of hazel, besides a nice addition to the flavor of my coffee. But now hazel is my favorite and each day I long to see it. I love how hazel changes, … Continue reading Your eyes
Some great things about living alone: I can eat whatever I want for dinner, event if that's just popcorn and olives. My medicine cabinet is arranged just how I like--filled entirely of face creams and lip balm and no actual medicine in sight. I never have to worry about someone coming behind me and putting … Continue reading 26
The steep incline has her breathing heavily, the back of her legs ache under the strain. She pushes forward, staring at the tops of her feet as she manuevers over the rocks. Every now and then she glances up at the path ahead, to see how much further she has to go. Everytime she does, … Continue reading 27
Okay, one of my favorite things is bumper stickers. I have three Nalgenes (shut-up, I'm from Colorado so we gotta stay hydrated 7,000 ft above sea-level) and each are decked out in stickers. So much so, I actually have themed Nalgenes. One is strictly travel related, most of which I got while studying abroad in … Continue reading Stickers of Mine

December 1st marks the beginning of the end. An end composed of Christmas wreathes, obligatory family visits, wintery liquors, and lots of lights. It's funny to me, as a kid it felt like Christmas took forever to get here. As an adult, as soon as I hear Mariah Carrey's "All I want for Christmas" or … Continue reading We Think You Don’t Have Enough Shit
I’m going to say a bad word. Dating. Yes, that infamous, dreaded, gnarly word—dating. Any socio-health professional will tell you it’s good to date and meet new people. Developing romantic relationships, being vulnerable, establishing what you like and don’t like, is critical. Especially for young adults. That doesn’t mean it isn’t terrible. Spending time at … Continue reading Romantic Opinion
Last night, Death visited my bedside. He was every bit as disturbing as you would think, yet oddly familiar and comforting. He picked me up and carried me down a corridor with mutliple open doorways, shafts of light from these entrances cutting through the darkness. We passed a few of the doorways and I saw … Continue reading Death and the Fox
She cleans her sword and wipes a smear of blood from her boot. The grotesque body lies still in the hot wind, a pool of blood furthers into the soil. Weapon sheathed, the shield-maiden placidly steps over the monster's decapitated head. Some would keep it as a trophy, but to her, it doens't even deserve … Continue reading Shield-Maiden
Coloradans are well aware of the freak snowstorms that can (and will) bombard our state overnight. It might be 65 during the day, but in that time from March to May, you have to be prepared for any sudden change in the weather--snow, hail, flood, sunshine, or all four. As my sister puts it, this … Continue reading TreeFriend
