After taking a couple of days to rest from overdoing it, I am back on my grind today. While going through a box that I never unpacked from my original move (because nothing inside it was overly important), I found a ton of missing CD's. I reorganized that box for its intended purpose, took the … Continue reading I Refuse To Change

Another night of barely present sleep has me sitting here stressed. I should be boxing things up in my bathroom or going through my closet, but it's cold, even with the heat on, the wind is insane, and I think I have to give myself a break today. From the neck down, everything hurts. If … Continue reading It’s Normal And It’s Okay

Another Sleepless Night

No, I haven't been to bed yet. Yes, I'm aware it's nearly 8:00 a.m. EDT. No, I don't normally sleep during the day, but the Full Moon leading into the time change screws with me badly. On the plus side, I was pretty productive overnight and this needs to continue until next month. I can … Continue reading Another Sleepless Night

It's not a secret: Fall is my favorite time of year, and October and November are two of my favorite months. October is a birth-pride kind of thing. I don't care if it's sunny year-round in California, because to me, that's hell. Peace is watching the leaves change color. It's not having one or two … Continue reading October, You Glorious Friend

Of late, I've noticed people feel incredibly safe behind their computer-based bubbles, but I often wonder how real people are being. Sometimes, stories don't add up (You can't bullshit me, I have common sense.), and other times, it takes about two seconds for someone to get offended by the simplest thing. What is that you … Continue reading There’s A Difference

All I want to do is SLEEP. For God's sake, it's Saturday night and I am BEAT. It's meant to be a 'day of rest'. But really, why should my body obey unwritten laws?!

I'm starting this the night before (Friday @ 8:30 PM EDT) because I don't know how much writing I'll be able to do tomorrow, mostly because migraines and lack of sleep have plagued my existence the majority of this week. Tomorrow is Case Study #2's birthday. I gave him three potential options for a really … Continue reading Misery Wants Company; But Misery Can Kiss My Ass

I didn't get to celebrate the first anniversary of 'Poison In Lethal Doses' being here because, for some unknown reason, WordPress did not see fit to notify me as they normally do. In light of that, I thought a good way to celebrate would be an AMA (Ask Me Anything) next month. So, from now … Continue reading Let’s Give This A Try

I love Cat and Kitten, but sometimes, I have no energy for their antics. Okay, most days I don't have the energy, but I digress. This morning, the antics began early, and I had about as much patience for it as I do for a KKK rally. I decided to put a little food in … Continue reading Critters
