THE TRIP OF HER LIFE Only one more stop and they were off. Again. Yay. Not the kind of yay that a person of any age thinks when they hear that one word either. Or the kind of yay, that a person of any age blurts out when they enter an area that is going to be amazing and fun.Or the kind of yay that a person of any age feels because they cannot wait to go someplace, they have never been to before. Or a place you never would have thought of going to until three months prior. Nope. Not that kind of yay, at all. Complete opposite, as a matter o...
The Trip It took Amy forever, to be ready for this trip. It’s been two years, and she still feels empty inside. She needs to come up with a plan. A plan for when she has nothing more to do. Amy has been living in a world that she has wanted to escape from, since the very, beginning. They quickly left the hotel somewhere in North Carolina. Quite quickly as a matter of fact. With traveling to different places, comes different foods. And those different foods from different places gave Amy a different problem. Every window that could open was...

TWIMC-5 Amy needs to clean under the feeders. She also needs to clean the porch. Get rid of a rug or two. And move the grill to the other side of the porch. Hi. I need to talk to you. I wish you were here, so much. I need you here. I’m glad that I’m here. I don’t have to go back. I don’t want to go back. I could easily say that I don’t care. But I do. I don’t understand. I wish he would be honest. He’s, too close to home. But not. Right now as of this moment, I really have no desire for a relationship. Why?? Because Amy has always been...

CIRCLE33 Hello. Amy made some spaghetti sauce when they got home. Good way to get rid of the habanero pineapple sausages we had left over from last night. Jason had to break up the sauce because he couldn’t handle the heat. (pussy) Just kidding. He wouldn’t have been able to handle the heat. They were even hotter second time around. But they were good in the spaghetti. A good dinner. A nice dinner. We all three, sat at the table and played Rummicube while we ate. Together Amy is trying to change up her sleeping schedule. It’s either still, ...
TWIMC-3 Boxes of memories. A chaotic mind riding on the edge. It doesn’t matter anymore. Hello? Say it! Say it! It is the pure consciousness of society. An epiphany of sorts. The new normal. Say it!! You’re slipping. Say it! You’re slipping. Only because I love you. Re-writing a history full of prophecies. Suffocating in her little brown jar. She remembers so clearly. Staring out over the ocean. Clang, clang, clang. Ching- ching. Bang-bang. Her muffled screams before she lost her mind. Focus. Focus. Focus. Bam, bam, bam. Bang, bang, ...

To whom it may concern: Every day of the week has a beginning, a middle, and a future. Who knows about tomorrow. She doesn’t remember yesterday. Kind of. But not, really. She sure doesn’t remember it the way that anybody that was with her yesterday remembers it. This is a story about Amy. A story only Amy, can tell. Right off the bat she’ll tell you that she has issues. Yes. I said it. And I know it. Issues. I-S-S U-E-SIssues…Fuck.That word. Lol. The, issues. The, reasons. The be-causes. Be-cause…Of Amy.
