Those of you who know me probably clicked on this expecting to read an ode to all things jelly. Because I love it. Specifically, preserves. Jam is too, just, weird in my mouth, and jelly is a bit unpredictable, but give me a nice preserve, a spoon, and maybe a warm, soft bread, and in …

And that’s ALL I need.
I was at Walmart today, because it was 4:30 on a Friday and I hate myself. This isn’t immediately about my self-loathing, though. Plenty of time for that later. Rather, it was about what I overheard an employee say as I was exiting: I just need validation! If I hadn’t felt so dead inside (because …
