On the left side of the sanity bell curve
I’ve come to accept in the last couple of days that I’m a hollerer. I start out quiet [Or, as quiet as I can be; I’m pretty loud all the time.] and then escalate to something around the decibel region of a tornado siren. I don’t mean to go there…to that place. I would much rather be… Continue reading I’m Harpyesque
Last night, I decided to peruse Netflix to see what TV shows were hanging out and what was available for See Now or whatever it’s called. I watched all of the first season of Lie to Me – which I LOVED – and then was stuck with the realization I wasn’t going to be able to… Continue reading 30 Something is WAY More Relevant Now
Every time I go see my counselor, Cara always asks where I’m going. At first we told her I was “going to the doctor”. Being a bit swoofter than your average child of three, she quickly caught on that our explanation might not be exactly true. So, Tucker, with his inspiring way with words, decided to… Continue reading How Do I Explain the Crazy?
Yesterday was the first time I’ve been without my kids and with a girlfriend [Did I mention without kids?] since…well, since I had my kids. Alana and I went to see Sex and the City 2 together on Saturday and left the kids with Tucker and Alana’s husband, Chris. Though I was a bit skeptical… Continue reading Sex and the City 2 and Motherhood
Since Heather has been nagging me, I’ve decided to come out of hiding for a short post since I know you’ve been missing me. You don’t have to admit it – I know these things. This weekend is my mom’s annual family reunion. Mom’s one of seven – now one of six – and we… Continue reading Family Reunion and a Rude Nurse
When I was young – probably up until 18 – I planned on becoming a veterinarian. Once I hit college, I modified my goal to include medical school since the classes were just about the same and I wanted to keep my options open. Life did what it normally does and threw me a couple… Continue reading Goals: Wish I had Some
It’s amazing what there is to write about when I actually get out of the house. On Friday, I met with a psychologist to talk about medication for mah crazy. First off, the guy didn’t shake my hand. Maybe I’m weird, but when I first meet someone, especially in a professional setting, I expect my… Continue reading Steve Carrell and Laughing at Ranch
In the spirit of writing, because I need to write and I haven’t written in a coon’s age – and when I say “written”, I mean really written anythingworthwhile – I’m writing. I have a book – since that’s what it needs to be – that came to me in a dream – I know.… Continue reading That Dream and That Next Sentence
I figure the best way to get back into the swing of things with regards to blogging is just to do it. I have no subject in my head – nothing I really want to talk about – but writing is a habit and when you get out of the habit it’s hard to get… Continue reading It’s Time to Write
I woke up this morning, sat down with my laptop and coffee and started working on Sims 3 Gamer. Since I am not only the Editor-In-Chief [anyone else always thing that was Editor-AND-Chief] but also the web designer on the site, my job has been more on the web design side and less on the… Continue reading Must Push Through
Today was my much waited for new shrink appointment. Actually, she’s a LPC [Licensed Professional Counselor] but “shrink” easier to say so I’m gonna stick with that. The office [though it kind of resembled a really nice prison] was freakin’ huge and the staff was pleasant. A very nice change from some of the shrinks’ offices… Continue reading Better Than Dr. Psuedo Freud
My mom has always said I have a very active imagination. I have always said my brain just doesn’t know when it’s in its best interest to shut down. Because of my active imagination or my brain’s lack of self-preservation, I don’t enjoy dark spaces. Or mirrors in the dark. But I’ve already told you about… Continue reading I Want a Nightlight Because Monsters are Real
