I have another Hungarian word for y'all today because I literally cannot think of anything else for today's letter. This is one of the first two words I ever learned in this language - nem. It's pronounced just as it's spelled, which makes it easy. Unfortunately this isn't the case for the rest of the … Continue reading Nem means No

Macska
Macska (much-ka) is a very common word in our house now, at least since October last year. When we were trying to figure out a name for our black kitten, little Miss Luna (whom we thought was a boy at the time) we almost considered just naming her Macska, because it's Hungarian for 'cat'. I … Continue reading Macska
Kill ’em with Kindness
The best way to 'get back' at someone who mistreats you is by showing them kindness. First of all, it frustrates them more if you don't react the way they expect you to. They might be confused and try again in another way, but if you either don't react or show them even more kindness … Continue reading Kill ’em with Kindness
Invisibility

Not for anything illegal, mind you, but to avoid certain circumstances or to not be bothered if I'm … Continue reading Invisibility

I'll be honest, football is really the only sport I watch because I think it's the most exciting. I used to watch baseball, but now it seems to … Continue reading Football
Easter (a poem)
Seeings as April is National Poetry Month, and there is in fact a poetry writing workshop going on at work tonight, I feel it's only fitting to write at least one poem as I'm doing this A to Z Challenge. Keep in mind that I'm not much of a poet, but I try my best. … Continue reading Easter (a poem)
Decisions, Decisions
Anyone who truly knows me knows that I can be very indecisive - a terrible trait to have. I have a hard time deciding even the simplest of things sometimes - like what to eat for breakfast. If I'm not craving something or have it planned out in my head, it's torture. Or if I'm … Continue reading Decisions, Decisions
Cousins
Boy, do I have a lot of cousins. I'm just talking about on my mom's side of the family. I've only ever met three of my cousins from my dad's side. To be fair, most of my mom's family still lives in our hometown and she had more siblings than my dad. Thus, more cousins. … Continue reading Cousins
