Perhaps a few hours of work may still stand between both of us and vacation, but vacation is within striking distance! And come hell or high water we’re on the way!

Morocco here we come!

Also, I would be remiss if I hadn’t taken an #airportwineselfie cheers friends! 🍷

This #airportwineselfie feels extra sweet…Since Sunday, I’ve gone from Fl to Chicago to Denver into the mountains and to Dallas but finally going home for three whole nights

I’m exhausted but can’t wait to sleep in my own bed and snuggle with my wife and dogs❤️

Happy Friday, friends, and cheers! 🍷

Heard 2 men opining whether it was worse to be on a plane with a cat or a democrat. Thoughts:

1.You came from Chicago
2.Did the dems tank the market?
3.Are the dems pissing on the constitution? Defying the Supreme Court? Giving the 🖕 to due process?
4.Screaming child + crying cat > you two douches

The 2025 drunk gardening season has officially commenced!

Cheers to green growth and good times. And kale. Lot and lots of kale.

On a flight home from an amazing weekend with my wife where we were both on work trips in the same state to revisit the city where we met…

Loving watching this UCLA - Richmond game with cheap red wine in a bamboo cup.

The world hard.

Sapphic books are good.

#AirportWineSelfie taking… makes the world easier to cope with.

For me anyway.

Especially when the cacio e pepe is fantastic. For airport food. I might have a new favorite airport food location.

Quick reminder from the City of Boston this morning…

They’re missing a few categories here but the point is still valid.

#TransRightsAreHumanRights
Monument in Boston that says: "THEY CAME FIRST for the Communists, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist. THEN THEY CAME for the Jews, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew. THEN THEY CAME for the trade unionists, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist. THEN THEY CAME for the Catholics, and I didn't speak up because I was a Protestant. THEN THEY CAME for me, and by that time no one was left to speak up." Martin Niemoeller Lutheran Pastor This statement, attributed to Pastor Niemoeller, has become a legendary expression of the lesson of the Holocaust, Ironically, Niemoeller had delivered anti-Semitic sermons early in the Nazi regime. He later opposed Hitler and was sent to a concentration camp. Sunrise behind clouds in Boston’s seaport.

Nothing makes sense anymore… surprisingly enough, this is still on the CDC’s website. Probably not for too much longer though.
Screen shot from the CDC’s website: Historic achievement Measles was declared eliminated from the United States in 2000. This meant the absence of the continuous spread of disease was greater than 12 months. This was thanks to a highly effective vaccination program in the United States, as well as better measles control in the Americas region.

It was a big book weekend for me. My 5th sapphic romance, Too Forward, was released, and I turned in my 6th book to my publisher, which comes out in October.

Whew! Now I can take a breath! Well until I remember the world is imploding.

But for now, read books, love fiercely, drink wine, resist.

That secret smile when you’re just editing a sex scene on the L on the way into work…

It may be 3 degrees outside but I’m keeping myself warm 🔥

Flying back home into a snowstorm? Feels like the right time for an #airportwineselfie

If you’re flying through Love Field in Dallas I highly recommend the Cru Wine Bar. I think they have other locations too but this one is my place. My second favorite part of Dallas.

Although the hiatus from travel was a delight, I’m on the road again but with an afternoon flight…so that obviously means it’s #airportwineselfie time

Cheers friends 🍷

Every day, every new hateful executive order, this glass feels more and more applicable.

I don’t have wisdom on how to get thru this, but I stand with my trans siblings, my immigrant neighbors, and everyone who is afraid of the next whim of a madman. All we have is our community. And 🍷 And 🍰

With that and a kiss I send Too Forward, my WNBA #SapphicRomance, into the world.

The next time I see her will be book box day…conveniently just in time for #MarchMadness.

Back to the grind today after a lovely holiday roadtrip with my wife where we saw both our families and a few friends along the way too (photos forthcoming as I need breaks from reality).

But I’m going to try to embrace my new calendar’s wisdom today and this year.
