All kinds of updates

Posted by: Becca on: November 17, 2009

So, I have been minimally participating in the two challenges I posted about prior to this post. This month has not been as conducive to writing time as I’d hoped it would be. I have written some poems and started a novel. Barely started, but started. This is actually a pretty big deal for me, [...]

Everybody has a love story. Most of us have several. Not just a love with a person. But a story about love. What we love, why we love it, how we’ve been loved, what it does for us- this love. How it saves us, how it changes us. All our love stories take us places, [...]

Adventures in Ministry (Are you freakin kidding me?)

Posted by: Becca on: July 31, 2009

Through various first hand sources, I have gathered entertaining information regarding the latest ministry efforts of two sister churches. Well, to be honest, they aren’t sister churches, they are a split off of one church, but they should be (could be!) sister churches, so I, because I can, will refer to them as such. I [...]

Racing Fuel

Posted by: Becca on: July 13, 2009

Clay always apologized for the Monte Carlo. And for Saturday nights at the dirt bike track. I didn’t mind either one. But Clay played by the rules, and as a rule, I suppose teenage girls don’t want to ride in old beat up cars and go to dirt bike races. I don’t really know, I’ve [...]

Handwritten Letters

Posted by: Becca on: June 2, 2009

Why does it always feel like starting is the hard part? I guess that’s true for a lot of things. Anyways, what is it I’m wanting to say right now? Something about this music and wine and blackberry incense. I think, if we really look close enough at the things we surround ourselves with, we [...]

There’s this guy. His name is John. Or maybe he spells it Jon. I don’t really know. I also don’t know his last name. I met him at the coffee shop. We happened to be sitting at the same table one day, because we happened to have the same friend sitting at the same table. [...]

How to build a safety net

Posted by: Becca on: April 17, 2009

At any given time, our lives are subject to change drastically. For the good, or the bad. At this point in the relatively young lives of my friends and I (as twentysomethings), we may have already had moments like this, but the truth of the matter is, we will have many more. Some of us [...]

Sex, friends, and how to hit on me

Posted by: Becca on: March 4, 2009

If you don’t know me and want to hit on me, I much prefer the method that goes something like this:
-Eye contact. Small talk. Are you married? (or similar question). Small talk. Alright, see you around. – Should we see one another again, we can wave, nod, chat, etc. It’s cool. Nothing weird. You weren’t [...]

Session 2 (we find what we seek)

Posted by: Becca on: January 30, 2009

I am making myself write and not go to sleep yet. I have paperwork to do too.  *sigh* Always. I’m feeling better about the job, but it’s the kind of job that permeates your life. I don’t know why I thought working in mental health would be the kind of job that didn’t.  It’s not [...]
