Why I Write

As a proud member of the elite group awarded a mood disorder (not that it’s invitation-only), I often find life to be a bit challenging. 

On smooth days, I navigate with all the grace of a kitten riding atop a Roomba. But when life throws a curveball? Well, you can usually find me in a heap on the floor, wondering how I got there and whether it’s socially acceptable to stay there.

If a touch of madness sounds intriguing, I'm sorry, the prerequisites are shrouded in mystery. I suspect it’s managed by one of those shadowy secret societies we hear so much about—likely the same group who spread the rumor that eating kale is a thing.

Mood disorder or not, life has a way of keeping us all on edge. One minute, you’re on top of the world, and the next, you’ve been express-elevatored to the bargain basement of emotions with no time to hit the brakes. It’s an emotional rollercoaster, and let’s be honest, nobody asked for the fast pass.

But fear not, dear reader! Over time, I’ve discovered the key to surviving this chaotic mess we call existence: humor. A good laugh is like a beacon in the fog—guiding you through the chaos and reminding you that, despite it all, life can still be ridiculous and wonderful.

That’s why I started this blog: to share the absurdities and laughter I stumble upon in my daily life. Whether it’s a truly baffling conversation overheard on public transit or a customer service interaction so hilariously bad it deserves its own sitcom, I’m here to document it. 

My hope is that by sharing these moments, I can brighten your day—even if just a little—and remind you that you’re not alone in this bizarre world of ours.

Now, I won’t sugarcoat it: finding humor when you’re up to your neck in the soup of life isn’t always easy. Some days, the best you can do is manage a weak chuckle while clutching your coffee like it’s a life preserver. But trust me, with practice, it gets easier. 

And when you find a way to smile, even in the chaos, you’ll realize it’s like an emotional superpower—a small but mighty victory.

So here’s the deal: I write about my life, but I aim to highlight the lighter side. My hope is that you’ll find something here to make you smile, laugh, or at least nod in sympathetic exasperation. 

Together, you and I will wade through the world’s collective nonsense and emerge just a little more Zen—or at the very least, a little more caffeinated.

But let me offer a friendly warning: once you’ve dipped your toe into my world, there’s no going back. This blog is the literary equivalent of the Hotel California: 

You can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave. Welcome to the ride. I hope you brought snacks.
