Blogtober #2: October.
Late entry this Saturday eve. It was a long work day and then this lady fell into a hard nap after work. I’m sure you’ll agree that naps hit different when you’re not 12 anymore. I basically slept. 🤷🏾♀️ Yesterday, I mentioned that October is my favorite month. Here are four reasons why: 1. My …
Blogtober #26: The Home Stretch. Somewhat.
Readers, we've been together for 26 straight autumn days. Blogtober has T-5 days left. I don't know what to do with myself. Or...do I? Ha! We're not even done yet. But I wanted to do that. And you get one, too, for sticking with me and reading and liking and commenting and following. The real …

Blogtober #19: do your Fall Friday dance.
Even with endless rainy days (it's been raining here for a full two weeks, reader) and minor disappointments in life (I'll spare the details and provide them for another post, but let's give you one clue: men), you'll find This Square Peg moving in some fashion during the day.

Blogvember #11: Friyay.
My bestie is coming to town this evening, you guys. The bestie! Needless to say, I basically want to tap dance out of here so we can start our fun. And yet morning just began, so...Anyway, she's my first visitor since I moved to Texas. Wonder how she'll react to the absence of furniture. Bon …
Geneviève.
That's the name I've given my wig. SN: wigs are like sliced bread when it comes to my eternal love and devotion. I can slap a wig cap over my two-strand twists that I didn't feel like taking out--which is exactly what's going on as we e-speak--and transform my entire look for the day. Pretty …
20 (Maybe) Weird Things.
I've said it before: we're all weirdos. See the following. I read over people's shoulders on the train, especially when they have hefty, voluminous books in their hands. I mean, how can I be a legitimate bookworm if I don't hoard what you're reading? If you stand too close to me anywhere, this is clear …
