“Never let anyone live rent-free in your brain.”
~Fmr. Captain Luis Carlos...”
– My friend said this to me after I was talking to him about an upsetting situation about someone who wanted to date me but didn’t understand my need for my PTSD service dog. I was getting very upset with the guy and asked Luis for advice, and this is what he said to me.

That figures...
Yeah okay so I met you, and I liked you. You had an accent, and that accent meant that you just so happen to be from Germany…not just from Germany, but you live there.
Well, I took a deep breath and if it’s one thing I’m good at it’s good at surviving impossible situations. I would rather live the disappointment of trying and things not working out, than the...

Thoughts
Sometimes
I find myself
Beginning to wander aimlessly
Within my mind
Slowly like a trickle of water
Continuous
Yet full of its own grace and virtues
It goes and goes…
Until the plumber
Comes along and shuts it off
With a violent twist of the wrench
Gone but not forgotten.
All I am left with
Is a fond memory
Of my own thoughts, words, and actions
The beauty, glory
The...

Ugh.
…Great. As is my life couldn’t get anymore complicated, I think I’m falling in love with a man, who lives in GERMANY!
Oh the frustration!

To Germany...
…For my dear friend Florian
Sometime I wonder if I’ll always be alone
Physically I’m not lonely for long
But emotionally I find I’ve been forgotten…
People are here, they’re there, they’re everywhere
My friend though is far away and long gone
Connections are a great thing
But will they last forever?
Or do they just wear on
Like some half-assed...

South Michigan Ave.
So upset that I’m shaking; Covered in failure, Some say full of deceit… But deception is nothing, Just a branch of the self conscious Being unwrapped slowly, Like a priceless Christmas ornament Or an exquisite work of art Similar to a Rembrandt, Da Vinci, or Monet Just looked upon with sorrowed eyes And pupils dark as coals. I am unthinkable. I am the impossible. Yet beautiful and...

Favorite Luis Carlos Montalvan quote of the day: “Never let anyone live rent-free in your brain.” In other words people need to work to be a part of you. You can’t just allow them to cause hurt and pain when they are not worth it. It causes psychological harm to let a...

Ode to My Arctic Cat
Oh what you do to me
With as little or as much effort as I wish
You have the power to make my day as happy
As a new birth, a wedding ceremony, a bright sunny perfect day
After many trials and tribulations of life
Or as bad as a funeral, a break up, or as I imagine Seattle might be
When enduring months and months of rain and cloudy overcasts.
I can kiss you, hug you, make love to you

“A dog that saved one battered woman’s life may go on to save many more...”
– This article made me cry because it reminds me of what my dog Tracer (who recently passed), once did for me to save my life in an abuse and deadly situation. Thanks to my Drahthaar I survived a severe assault, and while I am permanently damaged by the trauma, I am proud to say I’m alive....

If I were a blanket...
(First thing I’ve written for a year or so)
If I were a blanket
I’d be there when you woke up
To refresh you with a rush of crisp cool air
To jump start your day off right
I’d be there when you go to sleep
To envelope you in comfort in your sleep
As well as offer warmth and protection.
If I were a blanket
I’d be there in your youth
To soften and quiet your...
