Summer has some pretty good weird and unusual days, but it’s not the season with the most. Is it any surprise autumn is, though? Summer invites us to slow down, relax, and unwind. Fall beckons our souls to stir. We harvest what we sowed in the previous seasons as weContinue Reading

Scary-looking Leopard

Let’s face it. Us humans like to think we’re top of the food chain…until we find ourselves out in the wild and we’re reminded that we’re not. The trailer for Beast starring Idris Elba reminded me of that recently. It also made me think of a couple of posts I’veContinue Reading

Skeptical woman with raised eyebrow

A few months ago I tweeted about a couple of my paranormal pet peeves and asked which ones others had. Responses varied, but surprisingly there was one that many expressed the same peeve about.
