Wise Madness
Yesterday I had my infusion. The car showed up early, but I was ready. It fit in my plan as after I was dropped off I went across the street from the infusion center to get bagels. I can’t get it after because they close at 3:30. I still checked in way early. I don’t […]
I put what I was planning on writing on the back burner. It was a deep philosophical dive into politics, economics, and pop culture. Instead I’m going to write about something I actually know, myself. That’s not being honest, or virtuous, it’s being lazy. It’s much easier to write about me. I went on adventures […]
I hate when I fall behind in blogging. I didn’t blog yesterday but today I’m busy watching the Philadelphia Folk Festival. I was fortunate enough to have a friend gift me a ticket for today. This is where Gordon Privilege come in. I’m uncomfortable with most uses of “privilege.” Being treated the way everyone should […]
I’ll try a nighttime edition of Wise Madness. Weird day: I didn’t get much done but I had lots of things good for my mental health since I last wrote. In the space of 24 hours I spoke to Carolann, New York Carey, River, and Katrina. River and Katrina are about the same age and […]
This is better, my third day in a row writing. I’m getting back in the groove. Now I just have to get back to writing in the morning. I’ll give myself a pass today as I was on the phone until 2:44 AM. No, I’m not totally anal. I just looked at my phone’s call […]
Good morning My Gentle Readers. I know that technically it’s not morning, it’s 7:35 PM but I woke up from a nap, so it feels like morning. Maybe the problem is that I made breakfast and had my coffee too early. I guess that’s what I should write about. I went for my infusion today. […]
I knew exactly what I was going to write about today. Now I don’t remember. Something with the election? I think it was something about a common cognitive error people make while discussing the elections. The technical name for my cognitive error is being an idiot. I can write about something idiotic I did that […]
Yesterday started with very little sleep. I got home late on Friday and then had an 8 AM appointment for my infusion. I am supposed to get them every 8 weeks and missed a few. This was due to and reinforced a vicious anxiety cycle. The longer I waited the more anxiety I had about […]
Facebook exposes me to things that I wouldn’t otherwise experience. Like everyone else in the world I live in a bubble, I interact with a limited number of people and they are far from a random sampling. On Facebook I see posts from people I wouldn’t talk to and see otherwise hidden sides of people […]
I’m writing this far earlier than usual. I have an appointment with the ophthalmologist this morning and slept well enough to get an early start. My sleep is not back to normal, I still woke up in the night, but it’s improved. I’m slowly recovering from the surgery. My discomfort level is the lowest it’s […]
