Ennui?

I think I'm suffering from ennui. I can't stand being home; I still haven't made myself get a job, and so by evening, I'm so sick of being in the apartment that I could climb the walls. But it's not good to always go out either. ugh. and I miss my old friend whom I haven't seen in FOREVER. I hope he's doing well.

Merry Christmas! Happy Hanukkah!

This is my niece Zoe and me. Can you believe she's already 12?! And I love her dress!

What to do???

Since the election, politically, it is nothing but bad news about the upcoming four years. The question is: What do we do with all this information? What do we do about it? Isn't there something that can be done to stop all this nonsense??

It's the End of the World as We Know It...

I am rendered speechless. I am so ashamed of this country, and I feel like I've been hit by a truck today. I wish I could say something intelligent about it or be optimistic or even strong, but that's not how I feel. I feel dismal: depressed, scared, etc. It's so bad...I mean, healthcare: gone. Fighting climate change: gone. Inspirational speeches: gone. Improving America's standing in the world: gone. The list goes on and on. What are we going to do to fight against this idiot asshole??
