You don’t have to smoke the plant. You don’t even have to get high. You just have to learn how to purposefully engage and stimulate your endocannabinoid system.

A Year End Thank You
Starting a blog is something that I’ve thought about doing for years. Wanting isn’t the right word- I approached in my head with a combination of curiosity and unease. Starting a blog would give me total and complete control over my writing, published what I wanted, when I wanted to. But starting a blog alsoContinue reading “A Year End Thank You”
On A UFO Encounter
My fiancé and I enjoy hiking, which means we spend a good amount of time out in the woods. Since we live in Upstate New York, one of our favorite places to go is into the Finger Lakes. With hundreds of miles of rolling hills, trails, and campsites, we’re constantly exploring the area. Some hikingContinue reading “On A UFO Encounter”
Rhonda Rousey, Edibles, & Me
The only thing I remember about the first time I ate edibles is that Rhonda Rousey lost her fight. The fight was a big deal. One of those mega-MMA fights where promotions make it off of cable TV and certain twitter feeds and into the mainstream social channels of the rest of the world. SoContinue reading “Rhonda Rousey, Edibles, & Me”
On Hiking: An Aubade
To breathe in the fresh forest air. To soak in the early morning sunlight. To feel the dew trace across my socked feet as I wander through the woods. To hear the birds sing and the frogs chirp and the insects hum. To know that there is more outside my body than in my headContinue reading “On Hiking: An Aubade”
Your Dog is Bored
Your dog is bored. Sorry. I got to thinking about this the other day. My fiancé and I have been watching Canine Rescue on Netflix, a dog training show featuring the owner of Cali K9. And then I saw a TikTok video on productivity hacks for your brain. This guy explained the concept of aContinue reading “Your Dog is Bored”

I Hate Foundation
Last week I walked into Target and did something I haven’t done in almost two years. I bought makeup. I used to love makeup. It started in high school as my skin changed and breakout ensued. Magazines and peers told me I was better off when I didn’t look like myself, discolorations and imperfections neutralized,Continue reading “I Hate Foundation”
Exploring a Genre: Dystopian Novels
What makes a dystopian novel? What are the defining characteristics of the genre? Dystopian novels are the inverse of Utopian novels, a term first used in 1516 by author Sir Thomas More. Whereas utopian novels describe a world free of pain or suffering, dystopian novels describe a world where human suffering reigns, knowingly or unknowingly.Continue reading “Exploring a Genre: Dystopian Novels”
Creating an Office Space
I am not a minimalist. Sorry, enviornment and oddly shame-y guys from that Netflix documentary. Part of it is practicality. It would be extremely challenging for two people to be minimalists in a 600 sq foot apartment. We have things and a small space, so minimalism is out of the questions. And frankly, I amContinue reading “Creating an Office Space”
