Mmm Sweet Garlic

It’s 9:08 AM and I’m writing, how did that happen? I actually started before 9:00 but the insert time keyboard shortcut alt+shift+T wasn’t working. Instead that was opening the snipping tool. It wasn’t just in word but in all apps. I couldn’t figure out what happened until I googles alt+shift+T and discovered that happens in […]

Health and Dreams; Who Leads Whom?

I have a busy day today so this will have to be short. Yesterday I went to in-person therapy. Unfortunately, I didn’t realize it till I got there but it was only a 30-minute session. The trip takes an hour and a half each way. On the bright side it’s good for my physical health, […]

Blogia est divisa in partes tres

I started to write an hour ago. I was going to say how I am finally getting through a day without feeling sleepy, then I fell asleep. You have to appreciate the irony. Is this not a coincidence? Was it thinking about that brought on the drowsiness? I suspect it was. I’ve been asking artists […]

I used to have things to write about

I’m not dead! Sorry I haven’t posted. I’m apologize the most to myself. This has not been good selfcare. I have spent so much of the last few days sleeping. I’m going to have to discuss this with my psychiatrist. Is it my meds? It doesn’t feel like it. I had med related sleepiness and […]

Pavlov’s Diarist

I spent the summer of 1973 at Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo, intensively studying psychology from a behaviorist perspective. It was an NSF program for high school students. I didn’t get the spot I wanted, studying physics at the Colorado School of Mines, then WMU offered me this spot. While I suspect I’d have preferred […]

Nirvana and Voting

Yesterday’s excitement was making blackened chicken breast for dinner. I know that’s not exactly exciting but at least it’s spicy. I used to buy Cajun seasoning, now I just throw on a mixture of cayenne, paprika, black pepper, and garlic salt, in no fixed quantities. It ends up being cheaper and just as good. No […]

Premeditated Meditation

I guess I’m going to have to accept that I’m going to skip days blogging now. I have more time to write but less to write about. Turns out that material is the limiting factor. Maybe I should start news in review posts discussing the day’s major stories. I’ll think about that. If I could […]

Hypnopompic (look it up)

I’m being reminded how much I like some people. Just having a tiny interaction with them on Facebook gives me a shot of endorphins. I don’t have a clue as to what decided who has that effect. There are some from people that I suspect aren’t very fond of me. I’m not saying they dislike […]

Violence is the Last Refuge of the Incompetent

I’m still tired, maybe what I need is a caffeine IV drip. Maybe what I need is to make breakfast and drink coffee before I write. That’s an idea. I’m going to try it. Maybe I’ll think of something to write about as I eat and watch TV. I always watch TV when I eat. […]

Between the Drive and the Caroling

The three day WFUV member drive is over, so my life is back to normal. The plan yesterday was to volunteer for seven hours, 6 AM – 1 PM and then go to therapy. Then my therapist had to cancel. I figured I’d stay until 1 and then go shopping. But the supervisor that was […]
