I have been job searching for three months and here’s a look at the experience in today’s economy and with the current methods of applying for positions.
(I’m not at an executive or above level, I’m not at the minimum wage level, I’m near the middle somewhere, so I am only speaking to my spot on [...]
I have been Vegan for over ten years but some stereotypes/misconceptions still get under my skin. For me, choosing not to consume animals or animal products (such as meat, dairy, eggs, leather, etc.) was an easy choice. Once I became aware of the cruelty inflicted upon animals in factory farms, the devastating environmental impact of [...]
There is a Hustler porn store on Sunset Ave here in LA. This is not a surprise as Los Angeles is universally accepted as the porn capitol of the United States. Its not surprising considering that Larry Flynt’s, Flynt Publications is located in LA. Its not surprising even though its in the [...]
As I officially reach two months of sobriety a sense of accomplishment and bedwilderment wash over me.
Although I knew I would reach two months of sobriety it is still somewhat shocking to me. I think back to what life was like two or even six months ago. It seems like ages ago but most of [...]

I forgot about this little story and I wanted to share it.

And I had this memory of another time I was cleansed by nature, in an [...]
Yesterday I competed in my first 5k race; it was the culmination of more than seven months of hard work and one more goal I’ve managed to meet along my list of happiness. Leading up to the race I managed to lose 75lbs, way more than I originally mapped out two years ago for [...]
I admit right here in front of thousands (possibly billions) of people that I am in fact crazy. There, I said it. My mom has told me. My friends have told me. Hell, I’ve had exes tell me.
Growing up I was primed for a degree. I was taught how to make pleats in my plaid [...]
As I cuddled up with my blankets for about the sixth movie of the weekend, I let out a sigh of relief. One because I was eating Slow Churned Cookie Dough ice cream. Two and most importantly, because I didn’t have to share it with anyone. While I was still getting used to the idea [...]
I wrote an article here on Randomn3ss on how to drive 1,000 miles in one day a while back. Since that writing, I’ve made the 2,000 mile round trip to the Midwest about fifteen times. I’ve driven through every kind of weather, every season, and maybe every emotional state possible, along with five [...]
