the city has been ripped out of me like a gnarly tooth

Yeah. So I traded in my speechless swoon over the weekend for the speechless hell I am in now. I am not one of those people who likes to be fueled by drama and discord. No, seriously. I lose my ability to express when I am all gummed up and stressed out. So I have…

I’m leaving on a jet plane…

Oh New York, how I miss thee in concept, but reality is a bit more tumultuous than that. I was doing my little daily jaunt to the coffee shop this morning and thought about how it was still 9 am, and my flight doesn’t actually leave until closer to 8 pm. If this was me…

cruella con neighbor

Oh, I know you think that’s probably about someone else. Nuh-uh. No way. Sometimes I can just level you with my honesty. So my neighbors, who I affectionately refer to as the boys like to make noise for most parts of the day, dispersed into patches of screeching guitar-like sounds, and tantrums on drums with…

theatrics and the knife of common sense

Oh man, I need to ease right up, sister. I have this thing with running away. I need to stop doing that and looking at what’s laid out in front of me. Lisa and I were speaking about running off to Europe for most of September. How would I manage that? Oh, no, I’d find…

heaven is a ride on the back of a motorcycle, actually

(1:44 pm) I think I had a span of time yesterday which was probably about as close to heaven as I have been in several years…and I can give credit to one of what is now 16 dudes I have met (clearly sure to increase as the days go by and my social circle enlarges)…but…

dating in denver when you’re deanna

Clearly I need to be banned from online dating. I don’t even know what to say about it, except to say…one day you might read about it. I mean, I am telling you–my experiences literally run the gamut…and I have met 14 different men with 14 different stories, 14 different temperaments, 14 different ideas of…

zen and the art of transportation

As I was walking back from my morning jaunt to get get coffee this morning, it occurred to me I really really love public transportation. I like the whole communal thing, the convenience, the romance of it all. Perhaps it is a remnant of my time in the big city, but dare I say I…

deep thoughts by deanna

One thing is for sure, when you spend as much time alone as I do, you tend to recognize things through the processes of over-thinking. Over-thinking to the point of decimation, over-stressing to the point of frustration. Here are a few random thoughts that have been running through my head lately, however, for those of…
