Hey Zofties

I’m going to start this post by stating the obvious…. There’s a lot going on in the world right now. With that being said, I understand that some problems seems small to others.

Lucky

I’ve been writing a lot lately! After a certain issue I had a few months ago, I felt that I have opened up and I have been writing about so much. “Lucky” was originally written in October, then edited a week ago. My intention was to publish this next week, with something else, but here…

Finally….. *James (storytime)

“What time will you be here?” He texted. I looked at the ETA on my Uber app.   “The app says 8:35pm.” I replied. I got the notification that my Uber was outside. I grabbed my jacket and ran downstairs. I was kind of nervous. I’m not used to hook ups and I wasn’t ready…
