Musings on drinking, not drinking and my undying devotion to Julie Friend…even when I delight in her misery

Or, how I learned to relax and not worry when I feel out of place

How my “laid-back” brother helps me shift my mood

The shamanic practice of dreaming the world into being—and attempting to find a dream that’s good enough.

Feel stuck and need help getting unstuck? Try listening to my favorite song.

Toughing out burnout isn’t noble. It’s hurting you and the people you love.

Premature aging ain’t got nothing on my nauseatingly optimistic outlook.
