Songs for the burnt of Heart
Life is full of heartbreak, frustrated desires, unrequited love. Along comes a holiday dedicated to love, passion, romance; quickly appropriated by the card,flower, candy, and now the beef jerky industry. Because who doesn't love a beef jerky rose, amirite?

The Eyes have it
Fashion Trend... if there is ever a phrase that is the polar opposite of me, it would be 'Fashion Trend'. Sweat pants, stained T shirts, jeans, yoga pants with cowboy or rubber boots, zero makeup..that's the face I present to the world when not at work. Fashion implies style, popularity, and glamour.. things I with which I have nothing in common. Some fashion trends such as 80s big hair with the accompanying gallons of lacquer required to keep it in place have mercifully gone away. Other trends, such as wasp waisted corset wearing, we look back on with shock and a sense of distaste. A so called fashion trend that no one saw coming in 2020 was.... masks. Fashion trend? or necessity? Why not both, some would say.
