Welcome back, my lovelies. Tell me, what does one do when they realize they are no longer shackled to the toxic patterns of the past? Yesterday was my last at a day job that, over the course of nearly two years, utterly destroyed my mental health. Don’t misunderstand, most of the people were great (someContinue reading “Untethered…”

Cleanliness is next to gothliness…
Welcome back to the cemetery, my lovelies! I am writing this from my newly redecorated goth nook. I spent all day yesterday (literally about eleven hours) rearranging furniture, building a new shelf, hanging artwork, reorganizing, and generally just exploding my goth touch all over everything in my little creepy space. I feel so cozy andContinue reading “Cleanliness is next to gothliness…”
The fallacy of normality…
Since my knee surgery last week, I have been dwelling on the concept of “normal.” People keep talking about my return to normal in regards to my mobility. I am healing quite well, but this journey has taught me that everyone has their own internal concept of how things should be. I doubt I willContinue reading “The fallacy of normality…”
On the mend…
Your beloved Twisted Libra has been maimed. Part of me is forever removed. My suffering has been long and painful. Okay, perhaps I am being just a tad dramatic. I had knee surgery. My ortho doc removed damaged cartilage and several bone spurs. Recovery has been painful, yes, but I seem to be progressing nicely.Continue reading “On the mend…”
From darkness to light…
Something has changed for me, my lovelies. Years of introspection, lessons learned, and struggle has brought your beloved Twisted Libra to a healthy and stable place, mentally speaking.

Picture this…

It is no where near complete, but it is now back up and ready to be devoured by your eyes! Since leaving the Meta-verse for more civilized pastures, I have felt the creative sparkContinue reading “Picture this…”
In limbo…
September is here. We’ve made it to the “-ber” months. I don’t feel as though I am coming back to life, yet, though. The summer slump rages on. Melancholy still has me in a cold grip. I am not experiencing any spooky excitation thus far. I do hope that changes soon. I want to doContinue reading “In limbo…”
Thank you, Carl Jung…
Raise your hand if you have ever felt like you just weren’t good enough. Okay, well I am sure that’s most of us. It’s normal to sometimes feel like you don’t measure up. My problem is, I walk around feeling this way constantly. Carl Jung said, “Wherever an inferiority complex exists, there is a goodContinue reading “Thank you, Carl Jung…”
Out with the old…
No, I am not throwing myself away. Not yet. I’m not old, I am more like vintage. Okay, some days I feel as though I am aging like a fine cheese…regardless, I am talking about cleaning up around the old cemetery. Your beloved Twisted Libra has reached a point in her (after)life that yearns forContinue reading “Out with the old…”
Missing: Twisted Libra
That’s it. I am going to put myself on a milk carton and call it a day. (If you are confused by that reference, you are younger than 35 and you should just google it.) Anyway, I feel like I have been lost lately. Like I’m slipping away. First the writer’s block, which thankfully hasContinue reading “Missing: Twisted Libra”
