April Theory

If you aren’t on TikTok, you may not be familiar with two things 1) April Theory and 2) the way “theories” abound on TikTok. I don’t know if they really, technically count as theories.

Two Years in Northwestern Ontario

I still can’t quite believe that I am writing this. When I got the job that moved me up here, I told myself that I would just be here long enough to make enough money to be able to move to a big city and get enough work experience to be able to get a…

Thoughts on Being Bad at Things

Last Friday I was invited to talk to a career Lunch and Learn at a youth healing lodge in the town where I live. They currently have students who are interested in working with animals and I have become something of a local name for formerly working in veterinary medicine and so I went to…
