I suddenly find myself overburdened with the possibility that nobody wants me back. After being lost for countless days -that number is just the first one that came to my head-, waiting to be rescued while the seasons keep passing by, for the first time ever, I don’t know if any good will come from…

Everyone says it, and nothing could be truer: You are in charge of your own happiness. Yes, external factors may affect you: Financial stability, job security, having a place to sleep safely. Yes, internal factors may affect you: Medical conditions, state of mind, personal decisions. But in the end, once you have them covered or…

– Untitled: hot day –

Absolutely zero motivation to do this today. Between temperatures of 90F since 11am till basically 8pm, and all the shit that I would have to do on a normal weekday, The evening came, and I didn’t want to do nothing at all, just eat and glue my head in front of a screen. Texting, answering…

Summer came about 3 to 4 weeks early

Heat started, and it’s getting hot as hell. We’re officially feeling 90F-degree temperatures every day. It’s gonna be a very long scorching summer. Luckily, I prepared since last year and bought a portable AC unit at a great dirt cheap price. It’s been in my closet covered by a pile of winter jackets, till today.…

Vroom vroom weekend at Indy 500

Went to the Indy 500 today. Another item off the bucket list–> done! Lots of beers and cars going around at 240mph for almost 3 hours. What a jolly good time! But getting there it’s sheer chaos. It’s over 325,000 people at the race. Literally, hundreds of thousands of cars in a 2-mile radius looking…

Late Friday-night munchies

My freezer is filled with food, but there’s nothing to eat, just pounds of frozen meat and vegan protein. My fridge is filled with food, but there’s nothing to eat, just cheeses, apples and coconut water.

“To the reader finding this note, even though it was written by the same person, [me], there is another one present: The one that lived through the story and died,and the one that wrote the words and is now telling it” I live a normal able-bodied life with a great partner and enough financial stability…

A very factual post about shootings and police

I made a promise to myself that this blog wasn’t gonna be my political ranting outlet; that I’ll keep it light and personal. Only talk about things that matter to me. This is done, of course, for the sake of the reader [and also to avoid being flagged or put on a list]. So, instead…

Gearing up for what’s coming in the next couple of weeks

And just like that, with two different text messages while I was waking up this morning at 9am (lmao), I lost 4 weeks of side income. My two clients extended their break period for 2 weeks more till mid June. Damn! Don’t get me wrong, it’s a much needed and well-deserved rest (but I only…

OPINION: The Last of Us 2 (game)

Well, better late than never… I bought The Last of Us 2 for $8 at a Best Buy sale about a week ago. I finished it in a couple of days. It took me 25-odd hours. (Don’t ask). I confess that I partially join the collective indignation against it. Not because of the excessive number…
