The Divide
A sense of guilt washes over me, again. I watch as you sleep, restlessly. Your ears and whiskers twitch as you dream, someplace beyond this cruel reality I’m trapped within. I feel foolish. I’ve secretly held my hopes high, but the truth of things comes ever more steadily into focus, crushing the dream I’ve managed…

An offering
I’m scared. I sit here swallowing my own heart. I’ve tried to tread every step with a planned and careful thoughtfulness, to base every agonizing decision out of love, and attempt to anticipate the outcome. The possibilities and uncertainty are tearing me to pieces. Nico is my heart. He isn’t a pet, he is my…

Bad Luck

Windows Server 2025 Diagnostic Data
Trash. This kind of shit boils my blood. Why would any company pay, quite handsomely might I add, to use software that can not be controlled once installed?

Cameron’s American Bistro: Credit Card Required for Restaurant Reservations – NO THANK YOU!
I wanted to book a reservation at one of my favorite restaurants (well, it USED TO BE a favorite, not anymore!) until I saw this nonsense: I don’t know if this is some new thing from OpenTable or if Cameron‘s is just having issues with people not showing, I don’t care. Regardless, I will never…
