You know what doesn't spark joy? My fucking period. You'd think I would've managed to get used to shedding the lining of my uterus - it's only happened every month since I was 10. Yes, I was 10 fucking years old the moment I thought I had minutes to live. Convinced I was dying, I…

Vitamin D
After a 13 year drought from the peen, I'm back on the horse - so to speak. People keep asking when I started to find myself attracted to doodles and to be honest, it's a super hard question to answer - haha 'hard'. I've always found men aesthetically attractive; and all the women and nb…
If you wanna be my lover 2.0
Well, who would have thought I'd be here again? I thought I was done with dating, but turns out I still had lessons to learn and the universe wasn’t done so I got caught in a perpetual shit show and a storm of emotions. Now that the sadness has lifted, I’m doing what any self…
Twenty Eight
It's almost my birthday and as usual I've got some shit to unpack so I can avoid taking it with me on my next trip around the sun. Why? Because excess baggage is unhealthy, unnecessary and pretty expensive. Plus, dealing with your shit is apparently all part of this adulting type deal so, there's that.…
#housewifelife
As many of you are probably aware, I have officially packed up my life and moved to the red (almost) centre of Australia with my lady love and our spotty pooch on a search for bulk coins, adventure and a future filled with travel and excitement. After packing all the boxes, the complete Tetris game…

Resolutions.
2016 has been a pretty intensely shitty year. I know I'm not alone because almost every conversation I've been a part of and meme or status I've seen have echoed that exact sentiment. Tales of hatred, humiliation and disaster have filled our Newsfeeds and we've all fallen victim to clickbait media shitstorms created to distract us from…
Where the rainforest meets the sea.
This week I had the pleasure of spending an hour with some babes chatting on Joy 94.9 - Australia's only LGBTQIA radio station - about growing up and coming out in a rural town. We talked about how our childhood may have shaped us and whether we could actually see any positives in the towns we've since left…
Cluck, Cluck, Clucky.
It’s hard to say exactly when my obsession with being a mother (and babies in general) all began but the more I think about it; I blame my Baby Born circa 1996, Leonie. While other little girls were begging their parents for The Beauty and The Beast on VHS and wearing every butterfly clip they could…
