By Mica Lemiski| Montecristo Magazine Verified People will probably judge me when I tell them my dog was an impulse buy. I’m sorry, but that’s what happened. It was the pandemic’s fault. And also Instagram’s fault. Lying in bed one night, languishing in my sweat clothes, essentially comatose, I found Italian greyhound nirvana. On my phone, I watched puppies dance on a sunny beach. The contrast between their existence and mine was jarring. I wanted a piece of their joy. It seemed absurd that I didn’t have a dog. It was actually stupid, my doglessness.
By Mica Lemiski| vitruvi.ca@ Do you ever look at an item you own—say, a salt shaker shaped like a tomato, or a pair of Sketchers—and think, “Good god, this is ugly. Why did I buy this? Did I think this would improve my life? Or bring me closer to my true authentic self?”I am always looking for my true authentic self in the things that I buy. If I see an object that mirrors a part of me or my experience, if I sense potential kinship with it, I want it in my home.
By Mica Lemiski| Montecristo Magazine Verified I was sitting in the emergency waiting room at a Vancouver hospital, watching an old woman eat a bran muffin, when three unfamiliar doctors approached me, necks wreathed in stethoscopes, charts in hand. I knew it instantly: bad news. Beside me, my mother stiffened, and I began to watch the action unfold from a perspective outside my own.
