Well hello, strangers! I am TERRIBLY sorry for not keeping everyone updated on my life. I guess I don’t feel like much of a paramedic these days… being that I haven’t touched a stretcher since the end of November!!!! There are several things that I want to say about my future. I haven’t abandoned all [...]
The face behind the pen…
Breaking Silence…
So… it is with gerat joy that I re-enter the social realm. I now have internet again. The last few weeks have been hectic! Mav and I have been organizing and getting settled into our new environments both at home and at work. I’m going through a process that The Borg calls “CCP”- meaning Conditionally [...]
Ghost limb
Despite 8 months of hurt and rage filled posts, tweets, e-mails, texts, thoughts etc etc… I still need you to grasp that I do miss you. Not in the needy way anymore, of course. My life has moved forward greatly the last few months, even with you gone. I’ve met the man that, in truth, [...]
Boxes
I’m sitting here amongst boxes and various articles of my life here on the farm for the last 24 years. Well, roughly. I’ve lived other places for small amounts of time but this is the place that I grew up and will always call “home.” I pack a box and sigh over it’s contents. I [...]

I’m moving 3 hours SouthEast to the loveliest place in the South. Mav and I are moving to New Orleans together. [...]
The Waiting Game
Last night, my dispatcher called me on my way home from New Orleans. I was still on my little “I now lease a home in New Orleans” high… and it came crashing down with the realization that her call stirred in me. “The boss wants you to know that every one is on call for [...]
Warning… contents may have shifted during last usage.
For the first time in… well… ever, actually, I’ve gone public with a relationship. I’ve always avoided this because first off, I’m a commitment phobe and secondly, I’ve never liked to live my private life in the spotlight. That was until everything happened this summer and I started sharing my very private life with you [...]

Happy Birthday…
Today would have been such a busy day for me. I would have been frantically packing a bag, I’m always packing at the last minute. There would be things to put in order, phone calls to make, and a drive to take. Jer and I would have been crazy scared- but I think we would [...]
