The Fella & I Dicuss Politics
I recently took an online quiz to see which candidate I best align with on the issues. I’m a Bernie Sanders girl, as it turns out. Not that it matters at the moment (if at all; I live in Utah), the GOP show is the only game in town.
I was texting the fella a bit about the latest debate. I thought it was a funny conversation but I wasn’t going to share it because I think it makes us sound homophobic, which we are not. I just re-read it and decided it really just makes us sound like jerks, which we are. So here it is.

Welcome! I’m a middle-aged former Mormon (aka the “other FOMO”), essayist, and playwright living in Salt Lake City. I work in pharmaceuticals professionally and write recreationally—though I’m open to reversing that someday. On Life and Lemons is where I share humorous snippets about writing, addiction, recovery, relationships, mental health, and whatever else life tosses in the blender. If you enjoy dark humor with a twist of lemon-tart snark—or just need proof that your own life isn’t the only one held together by twist ties and good intentions—you’re in the right place.
