About Me & the ‘Cafe’
Hi 👋 I’m Rainy Daze, welcome to my little Internet Cafe.
Not too long ago, I traded a 6ft x 6ft cubicle at a big, big fancy engineering firm for an espresso machine and its the best thing I’ve ever done for myself.
Corporate life never quite fit. I always felt like the oddball in the office, and after a few years of 12+ hour days, clocking back in for late-night catch-up sessions, working weekends, and a lingering feeling of is this really it? I decided that it, in fact, was not it.
So, I chose to “reverse retire” at 43 instead of waiting for my someday; I stepped away from the illusion of security and into something slower and a little more magical.
Whats on the ‘menu’!
☕ coffee talk
📚 my favorite book yaps
🖊 my creative writing
🎨 bts of my sketchbook stuff
🪲 bts of my bug-inspired tarot deck
🛍 maybe even some thrifting content
This space is kind of like a junk journal, where I document my life for the living of it, not the aesthetic. It’s a place to capture my creative reawakening at 40+, it’s a reminder that it’s never too late to start again.
If you’re here, maybe you’re looking for that too.
