Confession Time:
I’m struggling. Hard.
I used to never tell friends when I had a crush on someone. Growing up I saw that sexuality was for people who didn’t look like me; I felt like it was embarrassing and presumptuous to think of myself as having any kind of sexuality.

I’m on a day off and taking this opportunity to apologize yet again for my negligent blogging.
