ERRA: Album Review
It may only be June, but I’m already declaring Erra’s new self-titled album as the album of the year. Released on March 19th, this is their 5th full-length studio album, and their first album under their new label, UNFD. And it’s arguably their best one yet. This album is powerful, and it hits hard in the best possible way. Everything about it, from the vocals, to the guitar work, to the songwriting, is next level. It’s clear that everyone involved gave it their all, because the authenticity is strong with this one.

Sleep Therapy, Hard Things, And The Wrath Of Hell
As a singer, most, if not all, of my life revolves around music. So I could never choose just one song that has changed my life, because there have been so many pieces of music over many different genres and periods of my life that have affected me in one way or another. But there are a few that have stood out a little extra over the years.

Bringing Wanderlust Home
It might sound crazy, but one of my dreams is to win the lottery, and I have big plans for when (not if, when!) I win big! Ironically, one thing that’s pretty low on my list of priorities is one of the things almost every lottery winner seems to do: buy a huge fancy house. If I’m being perfectly honest, I’ve never pictured myself owning a house.

Jackson: The Unofficial Therapy Dog
I think it goes without saying that we’re always happier and having more fun when we have pets. They give us all the love, companionship, and therapy in the world. And my family and I have had no shortage of it the last 9 years, thanks to our beloved dog, Jackson.

Have The Best Night Of Your Life
I feel centered when I listen to any kind of music, from classical to pop to metal, but I’d be nothing without my zen music. Calm, soothing music is the perfect escape from reality; it always blocks out the noise of the world and relaxes me, no matter where I am or what I’m doing.

True Crime Shows For The True Crime Fan
I’ve been watching all kinds of true crime shows for years. I feel like I’ve seen it all, or at least close to it. And if you’re a true crime junkie like me, you know there are lots of different types of true crime shows.

Dramatic Origins
Everyone’s heard of the Can-Can. We all know it as the upbeat tune that a group of women in long skirts dance to and do lots of high kicks. To us, it’s fun, sexy, and even comical. But back when it first rose to fame, it was called salacious, scandalous, and raunchy.

The Promise
Another day, another trip to the same old run-down convenience store for scratch-offs and hoping for a big win. I sit in my car for a bit, and give myself the usual pep talk before going in. Again, I tell myself that today’s the day I finally win big, like I do every time. Just trying to get in the mindset of winning.

A Slice Of Humble (Pizza) Pie
Anyone who’s ever worked in any type of customer service job knows that some customers are just the worst. I’ve had several different customer service jobs (I’ve done waitressing, fast food, and retail), and I’ve had my fair share of encounters with some major Kens and Karens.

Breaking The Glass Wall, part 8: Taking Back The Stage
At the start of 2020, I decided I was going to dedicate myself to building my creative career, and break out of the same aimless pattern I repeated too many times before. I was never again going to repeat the same cycle of:
