Hello Readers I pledged to write more a while ago, which hasn’t happened. It’s not for the lack of words, motivation, or thought. Part is because I’ve let other commitments take over, and I’m failing myself, and part is because, well, is anyone even reading this?

Sleeping Beauty (Pt. 2)
I got even. I took this awful woman's advice and saw a nutritionist. Someone I didn't know so that I could get the most unbiased point of view.
