I blinked and it is January 31st. Another mindfuck. I've had a lot to say, a lot to think about, and a lot I didn't write this month. I'd start to say something and it would irk me, so I'd draft it and move on. In the meantime, I did manage to read over sixty … Continue reading Where Did This Month Go?

My vibe for this year is so different. I think part of it has to do with already knowing the direction I'm heading in, and knowing I can rock it. I only left a little, "up in the air". The rest is falling into place, as it's supposed to, because I did a lot of … Continue reading Day One

Hello, everyone. It's been a minute, and the reality is, I've been sick for over a month. 😦 I haven't had any real energy, and I've struggled with not getting enough sleep and then getting too much sleep, if too much sleep is actually a real thing. <Sigh> According to my body, it isn't. Fighting … Continue reading Pre-Thanksgiving Jitters

I'm not overly superstitious, but today was a bit much for me. I woke up with an arm injury (I am typing with my left hand. Perhaps it's a good thing I trained myself to use it in all situations, in case I ever had a stroke.) that is painful. I'm not sure how it … Continue reading Friday the 13th

I keep asking myself when a day won't feel, "rough", "tough", "heartbreaking", "emotionally taxing", "lonely", or "deeply upsetting". The fact of the matter is, as someone who rarely cries, I've been an emotional tornado. I've cried so much over the past few days, and that only angers me. In the past week I've nearly hyperventilated … Continue reading Current Mood > Assumptions

I'm still not doing too great post-treatment. I'm either sleeping too little or too much, and the amount of pain I am in may last another 7-10 days. The plus side of this is that I was approved to start taking Nurtec. I'll figure this out as I go, but thus far, I haven't heard … Continue reading Not Quite

When I decided to take "Poison In Lethal Doses" from a printed, exclusive, personally publicized format to an online, public, still personally publicized, but zero profit format, I opened it up in a way I wasn't quite expecting.

A few days ago, a Facebook group claiming to aid in eradicating anti-Semitism decided to start harassing me to an intolerable degree. For the past two years, which is how long they've run their page, they would immediately attack anything I said that interfered with their hateful "message". They are trying to mask hatred under … Continue reading Objects In The Rearview Mirror Are A Mindfuck
