Woman...Scien(TES)t...Poet

I have suncatchers everywhere.  Every room that I love.  When I take away the suncatchers, you know you’re in trouble.

I bought a 3D printed Spock in a lotus position.  That’s new.  He will be spray painted soon.

I’ve come to a place in my life that I no longer want drama.  I also, don’t want randoms hanging around.  I don’t have any time for those that do not bring me joy.

I’ve also come to realize that I will be a famous poet.  Likely, after I’m dead. Isn’t that how it normally happens? 

My rosy disposition has vacated. I’m still a rainbow shooter, just like my Daddy.

I miss my Dad.

That’s all for now.
