    Good Vibes Only? Why This Popular Phrase is a Problem

    August 16, 2020 /

    “Good Vibes Only!” has inserted itself on shirts, hats, bumper stickers. It’s become so popular, it’s difficult to not encounter it in some form daily. It was once one of my favorite personal mantras. Now? Not so much. I have no quibbles with the phrase, “Good vibes only!” itself. Being hopeful and knowing that there are things to be…

    Do They See You?

    January 12, 2020 /

    It’s no secret that I am a bibliophile, for which my husband has always been supportive, but he isn’t the type to buy books as gifts. That changed this past Christmas. He picked out the book pictured above: it details various Tarot card meanings, and ties those meanings into tips to increase creativity. Mike isn’t a reader. He isn’t…

    Good Vibrations: Raise Yourself (Pt. 1)

    September 18, 2019 /

    Even if you haven’t seen the vast number of posts circulating the Web that mention “low” versus “high” vibrations, you are undoubtedly familiar with them, even subconsciously: they’re feelings you get from people, places, or situations. That one person who, despite not actually doing anything to you, stresses you out when you’re around them? That’s low vibration.That job which…

    This is something I have been putting off. I should really know better. Haven’t I always known I wouldn’t be able to truly move on by pretending I wasn’t still hurting? That my upturned nose and indignant sniffs of, “I don’t care at all!” were just more bandages on the cracks in the foundation? I’ve been seeing so many…

    No one could accuse me of lacking a work ethic, but I also greatly enjoy my down time. Recently, events in my life have, as they say, “lit a fire” under my butt, and I have moved into action in a way similar to a bull barreling down a hill. This happens to me occasionally, when I have decided…

    Thoughts on a Tuesday: Ego

    March 26, 2019 /

    “Not everything is about you.” I tell myself, cursing the person in front of me, who is keeping their car a firm ten miles below the speed limit, at least. They seem to be overly cautious, I want to get home quickly, and our conflict of interest has left me feeling like they’re doing it on purpose.  Ego is,…

I am a fan of all the classic Christmas movies——both Home Alones, The Grinch, White Christmas, A Muppet Christmas Carol.....but Krampus has become a yearly tradition, too. It’s so much fun, yet has eerie moments (the snowmen....yikes). Somehow, even though the mail is seriously delayed right now, I was able to get a replacement copy in the mail within a week.

Because posting selfies is A Thing We Do Here, and Because posting selfies is A Thing We Do Here, and because I was tagged for a #gettoknowme, here are some random facts. (I feel weird doing these. I never know what to put.)
1. I majored in English/Lit but wish I had studied to become a librarian or museum curator.
2. I’m 5ft 9inches tall, or 175.26cm, and a lefty. Okay, that’s two things under one number. 😂
3. The first “adult” horror book I read was a collection of Poe stories. 
4. I love spiders, bugs in general, and reptiles. (But all animals are pretty cool in my book.) I don’t like it when people kill animals simply for existing. Most animals we think of as “scary” go out of their way to avoid humans.
5. I’m not fond of my voice, so I prefer to listen, instead of talk.

I’m a simple woman. I want my purses to be durab I’m a simple woman. I want my purses to be durable, unique, comfortable to carry, and large enough to fit a book or two.
Of course, I would never just shove a vintage paperback in there, but isn’t Ramsey Campbell’s Dark Companions perfect with the fabric pattern and red lining? 😍 Incidentally, this book MADE ME EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE. 
I’ve read so much horror that it’s rare for me to be truly creeped out; I was so happy that Dark Companions delivered. Thanks to @lanecrioteca for selling it!

What’s the last book you’ve read that’s truly unnerved you?
