OVER-BEARING PRESENCE
I give up. When did Seattle start allowing bears into the city? I have twice been assaulted while shopping for rain boots and bath salts and both times I bear-ly escaped. I mean, I’ve even seen them in Bellevue Maul pretending to be in a taxidermy display before...THIS, TOO, SHALL PASS
Seattle skies are wearing their familiar gray cloak today. As the fecund clouds tire of the their tears, they release to the spring. The solar deities join the dance, waking the verdant soil from its pitiless darkness and beckoning the flora to escape its loamy...I’M BAAAACKBigger, better and darker than ever! I’ve missed you dear Tumblr and I’m ready to ride on your tracks once again. Buckle your seat belts, we’re in for a bumpy ride!

Deirdre Timmons
An accomplished writer and filmmaker, Deirdre Timmons is a native Northwesterner who leads a busy life between working and spending time with her family. In the spring of 2013, Deirdre was caring for her mother with Alzheimer’s in addition to her normal routine. So when she began feeling tired and forgetful, she chalked it up to her busy schedule, age, and possible early symptoms of Alzheimer’s. It wasn’t long after that she began experiencing regular dizziness, lack of concentration, unexplained weight loss, and extensive bruising. This combination of symptoms seemed odd, so Deirdre sought the advice of her doctor and subsequently began physical therapy for dizziness. When the symptoms worsened, she pursued further investigation.
After MRIs, x-rays, blood tests, a CAT scan, and a brain biopsy, her brain surgeon diagnosed Deirdre with a malignant medulloblastoma brain tumor. Her prognosis: one month to live. That was five years ago.
