Today I really want to lay low. I want to avoid social media as much as I can, I want to stay in my house, and don't even want to watch the polling results. Today doesn't give me a great feeling.

I had been feeling like maybe I can’t write anymore, but I have decided that this isn’t the case. I’m going to keep writing … Continue reading Back on My BS
