Category: Not about him

  • Overdue

    Due warning: this is NOT a creative or funny post. Unless you want to be subjected to paragraphs and paragraphs of endless venting and bitching, go ahead and move on to someone else’s blog and come back here soon. I adore you, dear reader; I just have issues that the medication is not smothering at…

  • Time Change

    My friend, Lamar, recently posted about living in the past and the future and trying to find balance in the now. It made me think. I only have brief moments of clarity in which I totally feel the now. For example, I live in the now when I realize this or that sucks. When I…

  • Guilt

    …because at the end of the day, I connected two comments together and realized how horrifying disrespectful it is to one person and how it’s also sadly true for the other.

  • Prescription Dreams

    Another day, another medication. God bless. The good news: My kidneys are working. The other kind of news: they don’t know why I’m spiking. My eating and exercise habits haven’t been good, but it’s unlikely to be that since when those habits were good and I lost weight, it didn’t help much. And in any…
