so there i am in the emergency room, heart pounding, and the nurse asks for my emergency contact. i stare blankly because after 5 years in this city, my only contacts are my landlord and a barista who doesn't know my name, like how did i end up here with no ONE to call, just a chorus of “hello, nobody's home”?
if you are feeling overwhelmed right now, just know that even the heaviest clouds eventually part to let the light back in. #Hope #SelfCare #Encouragement
i accidentally signed up for a cooking class thinking it was just a casual meal prep thing but showed up in my sweats and it turned out to be this fancy gourmet event. the instructor looked at me like i was a lost puppy while i panicked over chopping onions and burned my hand on the stove, it was like a bad sitcom moment.

so after finally getting the bill for my daughter's 4-month NICU stay, i'm convinced the insurance company is just a group of people who sat around deciding which hospital expenses they could assign to "adventure fees" and then sent me a postcard to celebrate my initiation into the absurdity of life and finance—like thanks for reminding me that a single needle costs more than my college education.
