Sunday is about over, and probably will be by the time I post this. Tomorrow begins another work week and I’m not ready for it. I just don’t have the energy for it. I enjoy my Stefani time. Yesterday (Saturday) I went with a friend to Quartz Mountain Nature Park in Oklahoma and did some … Continue reading

2020 and the New Normal
It’s hard to write when things are going well. It’s when things fall apart that the urge to scribble out my thoughts becomes a necessity, a way to deal with the stress and organize my thoughts. Still, I think it’s helpful to write about the mundane from time to time. The biggest issue that I’ve … Continue reading
Roller coaster ride
I hate roller coasters. Anyone who really knows me also knows that I hate them, passionately. It’s not that I don’t recognize that they are a form of amusement, loved by millions, I get that. It’s just not for me. I hate that feeling in the pit of my stomach, that feeling of freefall that … Continue reading
Short Story: Miracle
Originally posted on Stefani Writes:
It felt as though my heart was being squeezed by a vise. Or maybe it felt as though it was been forced through a shredder. It was a pain I’ve felt before, a pain I think we’re all to familiar with, at least if you’re ever had the misfortune of…
Another year older
Friday is my birthday, and another year has passed me by. I will have gone around the star we call the Sun for the forty-fourth time, and I find myself alone, living in a small apartment, wondering where things went wrong. Perhaps the reality is that everything went right, and this is where I’m supposed … Continue reading
Becoming healthy
The diet’s going well. Pardon, my health plan is going well. I went to the doctor’s this past Monday for a routine physical. I had made this appointment prior to the coronavirus break out, and I had expected the doctor to cancel it outright, but after one postponement, I was in his office getting checked … Continue reading
Rambling Thoughts from Self-Isolation
Welcome to the new normal. A month ago, it would have been unheard of that we would be in this predicament, self-isolating, businesses closing, unemployment rising. The Federal Government is sending out stimulus checks, the first since 2008, to try and prop up the economy. Personally, I bought a television and got hooked up to … Continue reading
New Year, Same Stef?
I know it’s a bit belated, but Happy New Year! It’s finally 2020 and all I can say is where the hell did all the time go? Didn’t Y2K just happen? When did I get this old? Why is my eyesight turning to shit? Why am I always tired? Okay, I may be playing up … Continue reading
Short Story: The Ex — Stefani Writes
“I never want to see you again, Allen,” my wife said over the phone, once we exchanged our greetings. “It’s over. I want a divorce.” This was odd, for several reasons, namely that we have been separated for six years, and our divorce finalized for five. I was in a state of shock, a weird […] … Continue reading
Tedium and embracing me
I’ve been neglecting my writing for a while now. I just haven’t had anything new to write about, nothing exciting to say. I could report of the news, but my news is just a series of daily adventures, of working, breathing, and sleeping. You know, everyday tedium. Pain is such an effective muse, the kind … Continue reading
