15 Albums
There’s a thing on Facebook called “15 Albums” and you’re supposed to list 15 albums that have stuck with you. My brother did it and tagged me, so I did it, and then I tagged 15 other people, and they started doing it and tagged me, etc. etc. The cycle continues. I didn’t want to limit it to Facebook, and I wanted to edit/fix my list (because I think too much). Here...

Fancy Shampoo
Periodically in my high school years, I used the fancy shampoo you buy in a hair salon.. I vaguely remember it making my hair extra shiny and bouncy. In college, I stuck to drugstore brands, and was told my hair smelled “amazing” when I started using the then brand new Dove products. I’ve been pretty loyal to them ever since. I just got new headshot photos taken, and they turned...

Breakfast Conundrum
Two weeks ago, our cafeteria lost a grill man. His name was Ira, and he was the best. I’m not sure where he went, but he is sorely missed by his loyal customers. Every morning, I would order an egg white sandwich, with spinach and one other veggie, on wheat toast, with a slice of American cheese. Ira knew this as my regular. He knew everyone else’s regular too. Things were golden in...

Yes, Still Sick
It’s been nine days since I noticed my throat was sore. Fortunately, my throat is no longer sore, but now I can’t breathe through my nose. I never noticed how wonderful being able to breathe through my nose was until I wasn’t able to do it anymore. Sad, weary face. Being sick is really unpleasant, but now, it is also an economic hazard—at least it is for me! I’ve...
