So when I went home for the holidays my friend Kelly asked me to “please take photos of the things that we all remember, but that we’ve forgotten about”.
So here goes.

















Going home makes me nervous sometimes.














What is that about?
Is it about finding your favorite brand of chips next to the sink once you walk in, the kind you don’t buy for yourself but that you secretly love?
















Is it about noticing that you family members have aged since you’ve seen them last? (dont tell anyone I said that.)




























Its about those memories we have that aren’t clear, but are part of us, that we grew up with, and how they’ve changed, they’re not really true anymore.
How uncanny.
















There are some things that never change, right? And that I really really hope never will. things that I want to hold still for awhile.























I still really like those chips.

hi!
its been FOREVER since ive posted. sorry.
i had some back pain. but its pretty much gone now.
















things get busy so fast and time then it turns into water or air or some such ephemeral element...unlike when youre at work and waiting to go home. then time feels like ginger candy, all stuck to your teeth.
hopefully i can change that. i think i can.
peppermints. sorta.
i think i had a hard time getting back from north carolina. (no offense michigan.)
but ive been in one place for almost a month now.
















got to see some old friends.
















meet up with my dawgs.























thinking of the future


















and wishing everyone well.
