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 …
Chapter 2023.
Did we hang out a lot in 2022? Well, no, we didn't. But you're not that surprised, are you? Because life happens and I stop by here and there when life is not lifing and I want to chat. You still love me. I know you do. TSP will always be my 'lil home, even …
Autumnal.
Hey, y’all. Thought I’d pop in—because that’s what we’re doing these days, apparently, based on the last time I visited you here on TSP, but you love me anyway—and give you the official greeting of all fall lovers. And this, too. But, yes, we reached the official start of autumn in September and despite the …
Products from Heaven: Body Condish, Skincare, & Other Lovely Tings.
First off, how's the summer going for y'all? Melted yet? (Well, hopefully not or you wouldn't be reading this post, would you? I'm here all night, folks.) As you know, I live in the Lone Star State and I'm here to report that the heat has thoroughly gone ham, Defcon 12, all of it. So …

Hello, It’s Me.
How are you? May is Mental Health Awareness month and by now, I hope you know that mental and emotional health and sustainment are big priorities for your Square Peg. It surpasses the month of May, yes, but always worth mentioning when we have dedicated days, too. I want all of us to be okay, …
The Actor: Random Memory #3
Hi, there. It’s been forever. We’re in a whole new year. Happy to be back with y’all. No excuses regarding my absence, dear reader. Life. But we’re back… So, I haven’t shared a random memory with you in a while. (See past memories here and here.) The purpose was to share them during my morning …
GIF It Up, GIF It Up.
I figured I'd write a ton of paragraphs to describe how life has been so far, but I type all day. And though I'm not complaining about typing all day, I love GIFs, so let's tell the story a different way, shall we? And hi! Are you good? 1. But I did, Katy Perry. Again. …
Living Single.
I've been a singleton for many years now, and have lived alone for many years, as well. So let's chat about a few of the awesome and not so awesome stuff about living single, shall we? We're limiting this to the actual living part of living single. Let's start with the not so great things …
Straightening Up and Flying Right, Part Deux.
Read Part Un here. That previous post mentioned how, in part, my posture certainly changed when puberty reared her head and pronounced me worthy of her, uh, magnanimous gifts. You get my drift. Things grew, and fast. As I got older, those “gifts” not only added to my terrible posture—honestly, they were the main reason …

Life…So Far…
Hey, y'all. Been a while since I updated you, dear readers, about life and what's going on with your Square Peg. Image credit: Giphy Autumn 2020. Lest we refer back to the year that shall remain nameless, we'll start there. After months of quarantine living and having way too many conversations with myself, I decided …
