Hello internet, I’m still here, alive and… well I’m alive. Life is as complicated as ever but I’m starting to feel a tad more control over myself. The Leafs are doing great, and I am too. I have some really amazing people in my corner who are helping me to move past the damage and pain that have defined my existence for the bulk of the last three decades. It’s pretty cool, feeling valued for who I am. I’m far from perfect, but I’m working on.

Speaking of work, my boss is helping to complete an education degree. I’m going to become a teacher! It’s hard to believe still but it’s all happening. There is a lot of work and time in between now and earning that degree but I’m here for it.

Fuck Covid. Life is beautiful and the struggle is real. These can both be true.
