I type this as I casually dissect a large avocado at my desk for what would be my second lunch of this workday.


hello there and welcome to the wix revival of w_iredblind@livejournal.


Before the days of instagram, twitter and work, I once wrote extensively about things that came to mind and memories I wanted somewhat-eternal records of. This came to a halt with the onset of contract and submissions drafting that overwhelmed my life for a good 4 years before I decided to bail, spend time with the dogs, get married and settle into a normal corporate life - which I've proven to be terrible at.


After much thought as to what was missing and the cause of increasingly lengthy instagram captions - the conclusion was that I missed writing and if it wasn't going to be paid-submissions, it would be my stream of consciousness/ about the ongoing commentary that runs through my mind 24/7.


So after being forced to watch many a wix-ad - the only way I was allowed to continue watching the youtube video I had streamed- and some discussions with my newly-minted husband + some poor souls who kindly call themselves my friends, it was concluded that a new blog was the way to go. Consequently, here we are at wix.


As my desk-sliced avocado slowly but surely turns an unappetizing shade of brown and employee-guilt sets in, I feel compelled to return to the contract I'm paid a regular salary to review.


In the words of the terminator, I'll be back.

About Me

Hi, I'm Val.

I have a terrible sense of humour, a running commentary in my head I need to be rid of and a love for all things I have been undeservedly blessed with.

if you've ever driven past me on the road, I'm probably that crazy driver head banging and who looked like she was screaming/ singing at the top of her lungs to her spotify playlist - or if I'm not driving, I am that girl decked out in activewear carrying a cloth bag and walking a white mini labradoodle who's on the hunt for the next mud spot he can roll himself in.

I share as @valalelor, once wrote at w_iredblind@livejournal and slice avocados and fruits at my work desk. Its nice to meet you too.
