  • I don’t want to hear it

  • Clean

    I have a friend who would be so proud of me today for letting someone really clean my apartment. It isn’t because my house was a disgusting mess. (Although it got a lot dirtier the longer I’ve been sick, much… Continue reading

  • The Post-Punky World

    My apartment seems so empty. I keep expecting to see one of my cats out of the corner of my eye. I miss Punky a lot, and it feels like I lost PJ all over again. My cats pulled my… Continue reading
