230. How to… come back from the dead.

Okay, y'all, so I wasn't dead, but I've been gone for a hot minute, haven't I? The year got off to a bit of a rough start for me. Covid finally got me, and I've been exhausted dealing with that and stuff in real life, so I had to disappear for a little bit and… Continue reading 230. How to… come back from the dead.

213. How to… balance it all without risking a fall.

If my lack of blog posts as of late weren't an indication, I've kind of had real life kicking me in the face a little more than I'd usually like to admit. I got the flu - not Covid, the other one - and my leg has been swollen something fierce for... weeks now? I… Continue reading 213. How to… balance it all without risking a fall.

199. How to… look for the positives.

As someone who has 'It's been a rough week' as a staple in the vocabulary, I like to think I've become somewhat of an expert in the not-so-subtle art of not giving a f*ck when the world hands me lemons.

191. How to… make a proper entrance.

Today, my mom goes in for the first of what will likely be several procedures for an aneurysm at the base of her brain. But... she's in good spirits about it, or at least she says she is to our faces. She's been one of the driving forces in my life... even more so with… Continue reading 191.

186. Pro-tip: (Wind)light up your life…

So, a couple of years ago, back before I started taking photos, I hadn't really explored any of the World menus or developer menus in my viewer outside of occasionally playing with my RLV functionality and maybe turning the sun from midday to midnight if I was working on something.

179. How to… start a new conversation.

Sometimes, we get so utterly stuck in the way that things are that we find it hard to even fathom that we have the power to mitigate our own circumstances. Sometimes, we get so wrapped up in the things that hurt us or the things that could go wrong if we take that chance or… Continue reading 179. How to… start a new conversation.

132. How to… save yourself.

So, me and my brothers are close. Not like, see each other every weekend close, but we've always got each others' backs, and always have. We play video games together, we talk on occasion... not much, though. Neither one of my younger brothers are much for picking up the phone. Last night, I went to… Continue reading 132.

127. How to… keep the music going.

I... still feel like crap. It's a combination of stress from the move, fear over some stuff going on in real life, and just general exhaustion. People are so ugly sometimes, and some of them just take and take and take and take... and there are people like me who will give and give and… Continue reading 127. How to… keep the music going.
