Life Lately…

I know no one has it figured out. “It” being life, but the pressure to seem like you do never stops does it? I push myself to achieve goals that I reach, and then I’m never satisfied. And I’m going to stop that. It’s like there’s an averse reaction to being happy and sitting in it for a minute. I’m incredibly happy. I never thought I would be where I am today, and by no means am I finished, but I’m… joyful. Ecstatic even.

Welcome to this space.

I used to have a blog way back in the days where blogs were trendy called Abby & the Jets. I wrote about being single, about wanting a boyfriend, about baking and books and faith — life in general. All of that is completely different now. For starters, I am figuring out what faith looks like and if it exists for me at all. I have a girlfriend that I love so deeply that it scares me as much as it thrills me. I live on my own with a cat, and that seems exactly what I’m supposed to be doing.

I write. I write, y’all. I’m a writer. That is what I do, and a little bit of who I am.

This space will be filled with random thoughts, updates about life, poems, essays, and copious babbling. Thanks for being here, and letting me share a bit of me with you.
