Reflections · Fragments · Miscellany
Writing that wanders: personal reflections, experiments, and pieces that do not need to fit neatly inside a single subject.
The collection
A birthday shopping trip, a child’s collection of Rubik’s Cubes, and a reflection on autistic interests, ownership, childhood deprivation, and learning that joy does not need to be earned.
A confession about thirty-five years of performing, copying, pleasing, and finally trying to discover who I am without asking everyone else for the correct answer.
Four stings, one extremely rude garden interruption, and an unwilling lesson in yellowjacket ecology.
One supposedly simple TikTok video cost far more energy than I expected—and reminded me that the price of a task is not universal.
Unlearning the need to be things.
A personal reflection on blocked energy, survival, and searching for a new path forward during a difficult time.
