she’ll know the way and then say she got the map from me (44)
Hi, Stacey– Trying something new, again, today. I opened up this lil blog and started writing to you because I’m at the cafe and may or may not be experiencing a sign from you right now! The sign in question: the song “Nothing New” by Taylor Swift, featuring Phoebe Bridgers is playing at the cafe.…

art into the wind (33)
Hi, Stacey– I did something I’ve been thinking about for a while. I wrote a short story and distributed it anonymously in my neighborhood. I have a particular relationship with anonymity and my writing. I think my generation (millennials) have straddled such a bizarre line of invisible and/or visible our whole lives. We came of…

Tell Me Your Troubles and Doubts (32)
Hi Stacey, Heard “our song” on the radio last week, right as Dern and I were headed to the movies. I’m only just realizing I’m not totally sure what the lyrics mean. Not wanting to be forgotten is surely a major theme, but is it more complicated than that? And if this is our song,…

BUY YOURSELF SOMETHING SWEET AND STICKY (31)
Hi Stacey! Well, I did what “you” asked. On Sunday my horoscope couldn’t have been clearer. The main message, scrawled across the top of my app was “buy yourself something sweet and sticky.” Listen, Stace, you don’t have to tell me twice to get a sweet treat! The obvious move would be a pastry in…

not planning what to write (30)
Hi Stacey, I’m trying to use a new voice. As an experiment. I use so many exclamation points. I bring a not not bubbly energy. But deep inside of that pink Glinda bubble is a little witch. For years she cackled, but now she is tired. Maybe when she was very young she screamed a…

THINGS YOU MAY HAVE SAID TO ME (14)
Hi, Stacey! Are you communicating to me through my horoscope app? I forget why I got the app. Someone encouraged me. Back in 2019, I bet. It sat dormant on my phone for years until last spring I started occasionally opening it on a lark. And then sometime last summer I started opening it daily.…

SECRET GARDENS IN MY MIND (13)
Hi, Stacey! I’m trying to be as direct and authentic with you as possible, but that’s easier vowed than done, isn’t it? In my head, I think of things to say to you, but there are barriers to writing them. The first barrier is I have multiple freelance writing jobs I’m constantly juggling. I am…

PURPLE PIG (12)
Hi, Stacey! Last spring I took a vacation to Japan and simply loved loved loved it. But I could not not not sleep well. I woke up at 3 AM basically every night. One night, I was desperately beckoning sleep with a meditation podcast. The speaker instructed me to ask to see something, something as…

HOW DID THIS START? (2)
Hi, Stacey! So how did this start? I think it was around the time ChatGPT launched (autumn 2022) when I began considering you in earnest. Specifically, I was lightly arguing with my Google Home. For me, the Google Home is basically a fancy thermometer/radio. The poor little guy is so underused that it (they?) sometimes…
