last night carolyn and i went to signature theatre to watch the show titanic. it was amazing. the intensity of the characters in their moments knowing death was coming… speechless. the only negative i have about the show was this one lady whose voice was just over the top compared to the other cast. her […]
i struggle with depression. there. i said it. out loud and shit. i mean i’m not all the time, but my high and lows tend to flow like a microwave instead of a radio wave. i’m not in the minority. i’m sure there are plenty of others in the world that have the same, if […]
