I looked this one up, just to be sure I knew precisely what it is to be vengeful. The internet says: “seeking to harm someone in return for a perceived injury.” I don’t know that I’ve really felt vengeful in my life. If someone hurts me, I don’t suddenly wish their house would burn down…
When I printed out my June prompts and saw this one, I was like, “Oh man, do I even have an enemy? What in the world will I write about for this one?” I suppose you have to figure out how you define an enemy. I wasn’t sure, so I did what any sensible person…
My strongest childhood summer memories involve visits to Iowa and South Dakota to visit my grandparents. My dad, a touring musician with a military band, basically got the whole month of July off every year. So, we generally spent that time traveling, and we always made a stop in Iowa and South Dakota.

I have never considered owning an actual store, so I had to think about this for a bit. I don’t know how financially sustainable it would be, but I think I’d enjoy owning a store that sold long-lasting and/or reusable products.

Nope. That’s a very short blog post, so I’ll elaborate a little. I do think attraction at first sight is a real thing. And attraction at first sight could lead to a relationship, which could in turn lead to love. If someone says, “It was love at first sight! And here we are, 50 years…
Boy, I really don’t know. There aren’t a whole lot of things I feel like I want. I suppose I could answer this with, “A different house”. I have never loved the design of our house (split foyer); we bought it because it was what we could afford at the time. But at this point…
I’m 42, and I’ve been cooking for a really long time. When I was in my early-mid teens, I voluntarily took over a lot of the cooking in my family home. I got married when I was 19, and have been doing the majority of the cooking in my own home since then. So, I’ve…
