In other words, 2025. But you've probably heard it or seen it on social media (or agree personally with the assessment, unfortunately): 2025 was the worst. And as someone who spent more time trapped in the downs of 2025 rather than the ups, yeah. Facts. Appreciate 'cha. First first, hi. It's been a while. Welcome …
Re-Shaping the Narrative: Random Memory #5
I was watching a TikTok last night where the creator was commenting on the characteristics of people who are gifted and talented, and that sparked a very random but important memory. I'm stunned I haven't yet shared this story with you, my dear reader. (And if I have, let's play pretend that you're hearing it …

Glass Skin Girlie.
Oh. Hi. Yes, it's 2025. Has it been a while since we chatted? Mm hmm. Nevertheless... Thanks for joining me in this odd year. I'm an even number kind of gal but whatevs, right? We're here. Life is the same as it was in 2024: one day at a time. My pup and I are …
Adulting According to This Square Peg.
Let me tell you what adulting looks like to TSP these days. Spa memberships. When masseuses that had the pleasure of trying to smooth over these decades-long stressed out bones would inform me that I needed to have monthly massages, I would think: uh, where is that money coming from?

Fabu Fashion: Summer on 100. (Literally.)
Oh, hi. Are you good? It's been forever and a day. But here we are. Summer has been summering and me and my pup are just plugging along, trying not to spontaneously combust from the Texas heat.

The Repeat of it All.
Y'all know music is my end all and be all. I love it more than bread, and I love bread. Here are a few songs I simply cannot get enough of lately. Saturn, SZA I heard this song, of all places, during a Mastercard commercial during this past weekend's Grammy Awards. Basically SZA hard launching …
shall we?
It's been ages since we last chatted. But this is nothing new over here. We're knee deep into 2024 after the 365 days of January. Did the first month of the year feel like a giant eternity to you, too? How has life been for me so far? It's been interesting. But we will focus …
30 Tings.
Happy Monday, y’all. I’m going to list 30 things that make This Square Peg happy. You ready? 1. My pup, Hugo. (Yes, dear reader, I have a dog now. We need to catch up. He’s a maltese poodle mix and he’s the best and cutest thing ever.) Hugo Harper Gâteau 2. When I walk into …
promises and vows.
The complimented style in question. Two lovely older friends of mine complimented my hair this week, mentioning how my natural curls and how I styled them made me look more "becoming". I thanked them graciously, because: I agree. I love my natural curls, I love when they're a-flowing, love love love it all. And then …
