Crying in h mart

NOT a big non fiction reader but I will always pick up something that catches my eye (don’t judge a book by its cover, but also like sometimes do). Crying in H Mart - Michelle Zauner (Japanese Breakfast) made me ugly cry at work. honorable mentions: Mean Baby - Selma Blair I’m Glad My Mom Died - Jeanette McCurdy Tuesdays With Morrie - Mitch Albom In the Dream House - Carmen Maria Machado Down the Drain - Julia Fox Cultish - Amanda Montell Maybe You Should Talk to Someone - Lori Gottlieb Flesh & Blood - N West Moss

Physical MEDIA

Finding a recycled appreciation for physical media again as someone who grew up in the early 00’s. I miss blockbuster! redbox (when it was good)! anybody remember GameFly? I still check out movies from the library, but especially with companies owning and having the ability to remove media from their platform at their greedy, corporate will - I’ve started buying my favorite movies, shows, and CDs again :)

Grief is weird

I’ve lost distant family members, patients, friends, etc., but I’ve never lost someone so close to me. I cried over everything and nothing and wished to feel anything but emptiness and loss. I laughed over memories and smiled at the sunset over a lake. I flew to GA just to feel the emptiness in person. Yet…I can’t help but feel happiness for knowing her voice, her love, her joy, her kindness, her unrelenting stubbornness. For seeing where she made her mark and who/where she made it in. Grief is weird and I’ll never not feel that void, but I hope I can grow to live and be comfortable with it.
