  • Buy My Brooches!

Me and My Therapist

The truth will set you free (sort of).

Buy My Brooches!

Please check out my Instagram shop–Brooches for Bros–where I sell mounted and framed wearable brooches. (Click here, search for @broochesforbros, or catch a glimpse below.) Vogue UK says men who wear brooches are confident and sexy!

And yes, women can wear brooches and be confident and sexy too.

Duh.

I should* be more social

  • Here’s to You (Blog #1095)
    March 29, 2020
    Tonight’s blog is #1095 in a row and is my next to last. I’m smiling in tonight’s photo, but I’m not happy. Or at least if I am I’m a lot of other things too–sad,...
  • These Hundreds of Thousands of Words (Blog #1094)
    March 28, 2020
    Phew. All day I’ve been tired, sad. And whereas I could blame lack of sleep and a number of other things, the fact is I’ve already begun to grieve the loss of this blog. Including...
  • On Having Nothing to Hide (Blog #1093)
    March 27, 2020
    Well shit. The end of this blog is getting real. After tonight, I only have three more posts. Granted, something could happen. I could get sick or die first. But it looks like I’m going...
  • On Slowing Down, Changing Worlds, and Seasons (Blog #1092)
    March 26, 2020
    In an interview I listened to yesterday, former head hostage negotiator for the FBI Chris Voss said, “You have to go slow to go fast.” Meaning that in high-stakes or even low-stakes negotiations it pays...
  • True (Blog #1091)
    March 25, 2020
    Today has been go, go, go. This morning, from a very safe distance, I saw my therapist. Then this afternoon I went for a walk while listening to an interview with Chris Voss, the former...
  • The Giving (Blog #1090)
    March 24, 2020
    Last night after I posted the blog and as I crawled into bed, I was dead tired. My neck, back, and shoulders ached. I am so over this shit, I thought. Ready to pass out....
  • We March Forward (Blog #1089)
    March 23, 2020
    This morning I woke up a full two hours before my alarm went off. Feeling crappy. And whereas I thought it was probably due to the fact that I was fasting and hadn’t eaten in...
  • What If? (Blog #1088)
    March 22, 2020
    So, I don’t know, last summer or sometime I ended up with psoriasis on my right elbow. And whereas it wasn’t awful, it was irritating. So I did all the creams and potions, traditional and...
  • Leave the Raft Behind (Blog #1087)
    March 21, 2020
    It’s 11:50 at night, and this is the beginning of the end. No, not of the world, although I guess that’s possible. Anything is possible these days. Rather, it’s the beginning of the end of...
  • Free (Blog #1086)
    March 20, 2020
    Ugh. I’ve spent all day reading, first a book about energy medicine (weird even for me), then a book about quantum physics and healing (fascinating), then a book I’m editing for a client (lacking commas,...
  • Sacred (Blog #1085)
    March 19, 2020
    This afternoon I finished reading What’s in Your Web: Stories of Fascial Freedom by Phil Tavolacci and started and finished Tapping In: A Step-by-Step Guide to Activating Your Healing Resources by Laurel Parnell. And whereas...
  • On Pause (Blog #1084)
    March 18, 2020
    Today I’ve mostly stayed at home. This afternoon I went to my aunt’s house to help her with a computer problem and borrow a card table, and this evening I went for a walk (exercise...
  • Good and Beautiful and True (Blog #1083)
    March 17, 2020
    This afternoon I saw my myofascial release wizard, and, phew, what a trip that was. By this I mean I cried. A lot. I don’t know. If you haven’t experience myofascial release or anything like...
  • A New Way of Living (Blog #1082)
    March 16, 2020
    Today I taught two dance lessons. I know, touching people. But we all washed out hands first, and Daddy’s gotta make a living. Groceries and toilet paper, after all, don’t pay for themselves. Anyway, after...
  • Responsible (Blog #1081)
    March 15, 2020
    When you stay home all day (#flattenthecurve), you can get a lot done. This afternoon I watched two videos about the esoteric history of Egypt with my dad and finished two custom-order brooch projects. Then...
  • Together (Blog #1080)
    March 14, 2020
    Doing my small part to #flattenthecurve and slow the spread of COVID-19, I stayed home today, as I plan to do tomorrow and for the foreseeable future, with a few exceptions (therapy appointments, etc.). This...

*An Important Correction

When I said, "I SHOULD be more social," what I meant to say was, "I COULD be more social." (Anyone who's been to a decent therapist knows it's not healthy to "should" on yourself.)
