Happy Thursday!

Hello to my readers, How are you all this afternoon? I hope you all are doing okay. I am doing the best I have been all week. I have been truly exhausted this week. Seriously, I never knew a human could be so tired and sleep so much. Before anyone asks (and I know it's out of concern) but no, I am not depressed and yes, I am sure I am not. I think it's just my body is so worn down that I have to sleep several times a day. Also, yesterday was a very weird day. My laptop keyboard starting not working. None of the keys were working. As a writer, I was freaking out a bit because I am so dependent on this little machine to work for me so that I can get my work done. I looked up all of the tricks and hacks, and none of them worked. I was resorting to using the on-screen keyboard. I was beyond frustrated because I knew there would be no way I could write a blog using the on-screen keyboard. I went to start up my computer this morning to check on the keyboard, and like magic, it started working again! As you can imagine, I am beyond thrilled, but that was so odd. I am talking twilight zone odd. I am certainly glad to now be sitting at my desk with my cup of coffee and typing this blog. I will not be posting a blog tomorrow because the college gymnastics national championship is on. If you know me in any sort of sense, you will know that I am an absolute gymnastics nerd. I love every little detail about the sport and know it inside and out. I will definitely be taking tomorrow to fully soak in that experience on TV and cheering on my tigers! I can't wait. It's basically the super bowl of gymnastics, and this year, it has been made even more difficult because they have weeded down the competition down to just four teams. It starts out with 8 teams tomorrow, and then it is cut down to 4 and the top 4 teams battle it out on Saturday! I am so excited! This is definitely the time of year when I am so thankful that I have cable! Truthfully, also, I am such a tv watcher and on days when I am forced to rest, all of those channels are a lifesaver! That might make me sound like a spoiled brat, but to be honest, I really don't care :) I hope everyone has an excellent good Friday tomorrow and an even better Easter weekend this weekend!!

Gymnastics... The sport that lives in my heart...

I remember the Atlanta Olympics in 1996 like they happened yesterday. I remember being a young naive little 12 year old glued to the TV as the women's USA gymnastics team went on to become the first team in history to win a gold medal in gymnastics. I remember the feeling I felt when watching these women (who at the time were teenagers), flip through the air so seamlessly. I was AMAZED and since then, I have never looked back and have never once denied my profound love for the sport. In the months following the Olympic games, I 'pretended' to be a gymnast like the magnificent seven. I would do a head roll from my sister's bed using the my trundle bed down below hers as support and 'flip off' the bed landing on my butt of course because I couldn't stand. I also pretended to do leaps and jumps on my sister's bed like it was the beam. In short, I was totally and completely head over heels. Soon, there was a collection of magnificent seven books, Dominique M

Speaking from the Belly of The Beast: A depression letter.

    Dear Depression,   I wake up in the morning feeling overtired and stiff as a board, and the day has barely begun. I touch my face, and I feel the wetness of the tears that have blurred my once perfect vision. There were so many thoughts swimming through my mind. So many in fact, that it is almost impossible to differentiate between fact and fiction. You have been making deals with the devil so often that I begin to believe exactly what he has fed into my already disease-ridden mind.   Every step I take towards normalcy and betterment is a hit to your heart. I know you do not want to see me even begin to become slightly better. You cannot survive without sucking every inch of air from my lungs. You cannot survive without the berating thoughts teeming through every pour and leaking from every vein. Your end goal is sick and twisted, yet I understand it with a perfect and keen eye.   You have ravaged me so completely and so deeply that I now can see your motive with clear eyes and
