I had a dream. It was nothing like Martin Luther King’s visions. It was more trippy and confusing than that. The theme right through every dream I’ve ever had, is confusion. I never seem to know why I am wherever I am – and not in an existential crisis kind of way either. I literally

I’m a serial reader. The worst kind. I don’t even hide the evidence. In fact, I take great pleasure in displaying my collection of victims on shelves all over my house. I love being surrounded by them and my addiction is so powerful, that I can be found with my nose in a book for

Guilty pleasures. Those things you enjoy in private and don’t like to admit in public. We all have them and they’re mostly completely acceptable. Unless it’s Justin Bieber’s music. I will cut you off for that kind of reckless shit. One of my guilty pleasures – reality TV. That’s not the scandalous part. It becomes

The 11th of October was National Coming Out day. When I say National, I refer to the United States of America, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom. How kind of the human species to allow gay people two days of freedom per year: Pride and National Coming Out day. If you’re in South Africa you will

My first memory of you is of a very independent little girl. You looked like the very young actress featured in Poltergeist with your long white hair. I would say pony tail but I distinctly remember you hating pony tails. You were about five years old and I found you sitting in front of your

I’m having a garage sale. It is going to be epic. There will be so much to choose from. It won’t be your average everyday garage sale though – all of my opinions are up for grabs! Now, don’t grab your wallet and rush off. The only currency I’ll accept is ignorance. So, yes, on

If you’re reading this you’ve survived Christmas and its good friend New Years. You’ve had too much of just about everything: meat, sugar, booze, tinsel, sparkly lights and that uncle your mother invites only because she feels obligated to. It’s day three of 2016 and you’ve already failed at every New Year’s resolution you’ve made.

I hate clichés. I personally try not to use them at all. My personal favourite : Everything happens for a reason. I hate that one liner – simply because it almost implies that you’re not in control of what happens to you. Now, I’ll admit that certain things will be out of your control, but

Straight women have a very special gift. Some of them have many. They all have one in common – they can carry on a twenty-minute discussion about shoes. Just shoes. Any shoes. That should have been my first clue. Not the fact that I wanted to undress Barbie more often than I wanted to dress
