11 Months, And Exhausted

i hate that i’ve only been posting once a month lately. i have allowed myself almost no down time in the last few weeks. i have stayed up past 3 AM more times in the last month than i have in the last like 2 years combined, at least.…

Breakthroughs

I'm Slacking

man, i feel like it’s been forever since i wrote anything. i have been completely out of wack lately. between brett moving in, las vegas, work, freelance work… i have not given myself a break. i think traveling and jet lag and the stress of having another human (and…
