TLDR: shoutout to the time i was running and got my leg ripped off. trash princess photoshoot with my best friend ⚡️🖤 @camilleredderthebetter

march 4th is the anniversary of me going for a run, getting hit by a car, said car ripping my leg off then speeding away, me on the road holding my detached foot, a buncha surgeries to re-attach it, a year not being able to stand, and a hawt $201,097.63 of medical debt 😮‍💨

thoughts i had at accident:
- i wish the car woulda just killed me
- i wish a bentley woulda hit me, not a honda civic
- damn, i wish that hot emt worker woulda given me his number, couldn’t he tell i was tryna flirt even while he was holding my detached foot?? kinda a cinderella story
- fuck
- i just lost everything

the trajectory of going from professional runner to being told by every doctor i’d never even walk again sucked ballllzzz.

i lost my first love (running), identity, my confidence, and any will to live. one day i woke up and realized i HAD to find something, ANYTHING, i liked or else i would hit the game over button for reals.

the next day i packed leo and me into a uhaul, moved, and figured i’d try “comedy.” (i didn’t even kno what that meant, just figured i’d ask someone lol)

today i look back at that version of myself and i feel sad for her but also really proud of her. she kept going and making really fucked jokes about the situation that she found funny.

i look at where i am today…doing comedy, producing shows i love, and running around the city with my best friend at midnight yapping about insane shit, dodging the puke and shit on the sidewalk, and doing “trash princess” side quest photo shoots.

i do love my life (even as a depressive lol). never thought i would and i have my best friend, leo, alberto, and @oldmollsballs to thank. and of course comedy.

life can be really fucked up sometimes, but i believe if u can find a way to keep laughing, u can keep going. even if it means u’re also a little insane ;)

ps- i can run now (a testament to ocd, being an unhinged workaholic, & stubbornness when people doubt i can do something)

pss- still holding out hope one day that hot emt worker finds me and gives me his number lol TLDR: shoutout to the time i was running and got my leg ripped off. trash princess photoshoot with my best friend ⚡️🖤 @camilleredderthebetter

Days twenty-seven, twenty-eight, and twenty-nine of Sexy Grinch Month.

1) Halfway through pet sitting with this Muppet.

2) Finished the Zenon trilogy! Iconic for the double recasting of Nebula, aliens who love boy bands, and this extremely Xanadu moment from the final film.

3) Closed out 2025 with an incredible weekend of comedy, including a jam-packed edition of @defiantjoyshow.

4) Reached the annoying part of Daria where she starts dating Tom, and thankfully, they provide some comic relief after that first episode where they kiss behind Jane’s back.

5) I love affirmations that feel like a threat!

6) Cadet Kelly is ultimately military propaganda, but we cannot ignore the obvious queer undertones. Christy Carlson Romano might as well be saying “maggot” with a hard F.

7) While it’s unclear whether I did standup or unpacked all of my childhood trauma at @itgetsdarkcomedy, I’m pretty sure that the audience had a good time.

8) For better or worse, I watched Deadpool & Wolverine.

9) Felt pretty good about my set at @heliumcomedypdx’s latest edition of Track Stars! At the very least, I remembered to stay on theme and mention that I have siblings.

10) Wendy Wu: Homecoming Warrior was thoroughly entertaining, especially the part where she calls her relationship with her (obviously) gay boyfriend an “illusion of the heart”.

11) Obsessed with this cat.

12) My television when I finally watch Heated Rivalry.

13) If you haven’t heard, comedy is officially FUN again.

14) I still have no clue what happened in Get A Clue.

15) In conclusion.

Dear Diary —

Accepting applications for chaos. Background checks optional, blood oaths preferred. Must enjoy emotional arson, moral ambiguity, and post-apocalyptic small talk. I’m not collecting partners; I’m curating accomplices. If you flinch easily or believe in “closure,” keep walking.

I don’t want love. I want someone who looks at me like a car crash they can’t stop watching. Someone who understands that tenderness is just violence with better lighting. My ideal date ends with flashing lights, burnt fingerprints, and a promise we both forget by sunrise.

I don’t ghost — I disappear from the records. I don’t text back — I send smoke signals from undisclosed coordinates. I’m not emotionally unavailable; my heart’s just on a restricted access list. You want honesty? Here it is: I’d rather burn a bridge than cross it twice.

I’m not toxic — I’m contagious. I infect playlists, haunt inboxes, and linger like radiation. I don’t enter your life; I hijack it. I’ll make you believe chaos is romantic and that insomnia is foreplay. By the time you realize what I am, it’s too late — I’ve already taken your peace and renamed it “nostalgia.”

Love with me isn’t a relationship; it’s a containment breach. I’ll wreck your schedule, short-circuit your sanity, and leave you laughing in the ashes. You’ll swear you hate me, but you’ll still taste my name like static when you can’t sleep.

And when it ends — because it always ends — I’ll vanish. No goodbye. Just a lingering scent of smoke and the sound of your better judgment coughing in the distance. You’ll tell people I was a mistake, but you’ll check every shadow twice just in case I came back.

So yeah, Dear Diary — I’m not looking for “the one.” I am the one your mother warned you about. Don’t fix me. Don’t save me. Just hand me the matchbook and whisper, “let’s see how far it burns.”
