Caressing the marble and stone. Love that was special for one. The waste in the fever and heat. How I wish you were here with me now.


The lockdown anniversary is coming up in a few weeks.

The damage that has been done so far makes me despondent. 

It seems like we are in the finger-pointing-vaccine envy-zoom fatigue-circle decisions phase, which leads to failure feelings.

Currently I am failing at being a parent, spouse and friend.

Anyone else?

Sometimes I just catch myself getting lost looking out at one of my many bird feeders. I almost feel normal and then...it passes. I cherish those few moments. 

I am not sure if listening to Joy Divison, Jeff Buckley, and Nick Drake are the best choices either. 

My hope that this is the beginning of the end of the pandemic. I want to hug friends and wear lipstick again.  

On a hopeful note we are gearing up for a soft opening of the library I work at for summer semester. I will be writing about it on my library blog- https://runkpocklibrarian.blogspot.com/

I haven't contributed to it much because y'know, pandemic. 

Meanwhile here is a puppet video I made with my kid. Ego Sensation did the music. I post them on Instagram too. @ericaannawesome

Stay safe everyone.

Hard times spreading just like the flu
Watch out homeboy, don't let it catch you
P-p-prices go up, don't let your pocket go down
When you got short money you're stuck on the ground
Turn around, get ready, keep your eye on the prize
And be on point for the future shock
Hard times [Repeat x2]
Hard times are coming to your town
So stay alert, don't let them get you down
They tell you times are tough, you hear that times are hard
But when you work for that ace you know you pulled the right card
Hard times got our pockets all in chains
I'll tell you what, homeboy, it don't have my brain
All day I have to work at my peak
Because I need that dollar every day of the weak
Hard times
Hard times can take you on a natural trip
So keep your balance, and don't you slip
Hard times is nothing new on me
I'm gonna use my strong mentality
Like the cream of the crop, like the crop of the cream
Be-be-beating hard times, that is my theme
Hard times in life, hard times in death
I'm gonna keep on fighting to my very last breath!

Thank you Run DMC!

You are a great parent despite what M throws at you! And we know B-Man has your back no matter what! And as a friend, well, the memories tell all!

Joy Division and Jeff Buckley designed their material for these moments they just didn’t know!

Who’s Nick Drake...hahahahaha

I need you in my life! I will carry you to the end!

You’re important!

Thank you so much for all you share and have shared over 30+ years!

Keep on trucking’ lol ugh
