Tales From The Cookie Jar

You know, I tried to write a blog about just one top­ic (writ­ing), and it real­ly did­n’t work. Some days I need­ed to talk about how hav­ing can­cer sucked. Some days I need­ed to talk about how the part­ner I lived with was hav­ing a men­tal break­down because her boss and friend had been killed in a rob­bery and that try­ing to hold the fam­i­ly togeth­er with both hands was just… hard. Some days I want to tell you a sto­ry or how my life is going or that I had a real­ly good Dun­geons and Drag­ons game with my friends and not have to twist myself into a pret­zel to explain what it’s doing on a blog that’s not about “that.”

Life Updates- Per­son­al updates. I’ve saved the major ones (the rest will be in the archives if you real­ly want to go dig­ging).

Ran­dom Assort­ed Cook­ies- You get a box of what­ev­er fla­vors we have left. Maybe you get choco­late chip, snick­er­doo­dles, and sug­ar cook­ies. Maybe you get raisin creme pies and bis­cot­ti.

Uncat­e­go­rized Mail­box- A place for all the ques­tions that don’t quite go any­where else. Write me ques­tions through our CONTACT PAGE and pick the option “Uncat­e­go­rized Mail­box” from the drop down menu, but please check first to see if your ques­tion has already been answered.
