What catches your eye about the architecture of a building? While thinking about this prompt today I really got to wondering about the different styles of architecture and tried to narrow down what sort of things I notice when I look at a building.

June Special: Coping Mechanism
Grief is weird. They say time heals all wounds, and to an extent, they’re not wrong. Bones mend, cuts scar, bruises fade. Even heartache lessens over time. But grief can strike when you least expect it, even decades after the loss. You wake to a brilliant sun in the most cerulean of skies, the emerald … Continue reading June Special: Coping Mechanism
Prompt 275-Mythical Life
What would life be like if unicorns and dragons existed? I think my answer changes based on how long these mythical creatures have existed in this hypothetical. Have they always existed or did they just materialize one day? The world would be two very different places depending on when unicorns and dragons existed in human … Continue reading Prompt 275-Mythical Life
Prompt 273-Recipes
What kind of recipes do you gravitate towards (e.g. desserts, casseroles, drinks)? I like to cook. I prefer simple recipes though.

Prompt 270-Dream
Describe your most recent dream you can remember. Most nights I dream wild things all night long. It’s really a problem because I do not wake up feeling rested at all. Most mornings I remember enough details to recount those dreams. They always stay with me for days at a minimum. Of course, because I … Continue reading Prompt 270-Dream
Prompt 268-Sports
Are you a sports fan? Do you watch or participate? Which sports? As I have mentioned many times on this blog, and as recently as Monday, I was a shy, bookish kid. I liked playing outside and being active but sports weren’t really my thing. In middle school I played soccer because I needed some … Continue reading Prompt 268-Sports
Prompt 267-Twenty-five Things
List 25 things you will never do. I will never understand baseball or golf. I just don’t get it. I would rather watch paint dry. I will never sprout wings and fly with my own power. It’s incredibly unlikely anyway. Would be pretty sweet though. I will never swim across the ocean. It is not … Continue reading Prompt 267-Twenty-five Things
