Tonight’s midnight tea and book club choice is “The Fourth Turning is Here.” Thought-provoking and recommended for all US-based readers (and pretty much anybody else). #books #bookrecs #teatime

Flu is gnarly out there, Colorado.

Stay safe and be careful. #influenza #flu #fluseason #sneeze #handwash

More will be coming in 2026.

This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)

The best and the worst ghosts of all are the ghosts of Christmas past.

Be extra kind to yourself today.

You don’t have to spend Christmas Eve alone. Consider yourself invited.

Any fellow night owls joining me for some late night (non-toxic) tea?

Midnight cup of tea with my fellow night owls.

If you have the watch tonight, stay safe and warm out there.

It’s been good getting back on a 911 rig this week, building that confidence back after the car wreck. It’s even better coming home to recharge.

Y’all stay safe out there. #paramedic #ems #911 #christmas

I love the firehouse late at night, especially during the holidays. Tonight’s between-call reading is “Kings of the Wyld” by Nicholas Eames. #fantasybooks #books

Absolutely. Writing is writing. Start small, stay consistent, and before you know it, you’re flying.

My first 911 shift since, almost two months ago, my friends and I were involved in a terrible car wreck.

The physical injuries are healing.
The psychological ones, less so.

I work with the best, most supportive friends and colleagues I could possibly ask for.

Scary, but it’s good to be back.
