Don't live the American dream. Live your dream.

    Sometimes I wonder if my Prozac dosage didn’t change since I’ve been here. Certainly, there’s quite a bit of difference between here and Indiana.  Both good and bad.   But, I guess in Florida I’m adulting more than in Indiana.     It’s easier to be wise and beneficial when I don’t feel that I have as… Read more

  • Brief observations of the Thanksgiving get-together.

    I like to observe people and I had plenty of time to do so while being ignored sitting on the couch. Although I was in the living room and the majority of the people were hiding in the kitchen, it was a perfect opportunity to discreetly listen. Impressions: –   A good chunk of the conversation… Read more

    Survived Thanksgiving. The day was pretty rough mentally, but I think I survived it fairly well. I kept chanting ‘no whammies’ and I guess it worked for once. First, of course, there was the whole food thing. I don’t think anyone really appreciates the dread us anorexics go through outside of another anorexic.  Especially one… Read more

  • Cut hair, smashed hands

    From my post a couple of days ago about Charlie’s Angels, I keep thinking about equality in stories.    Any story. I’m not referencing equality gained or equality lost.  Anything with some sort of downtrodden princess is right out. Some poor soul who rises through the ranks to save the world.  Nope.   That’s not what… Read more

    Yesterday was a lot harder than it had to be. When I left the house, I was feeling pretty good.   All of my homework was caught up.   I met the neighbor, which is odd cause I never meet the neighbors.   It was a gorgeous 80-degree day.  The road was beneath my feet.  I felt pretty… Read more

  • Angels V. Ferrari

    Disclaimer: I haven’t watched Ford V Ferrari or Charlies Angles (2019) at this juncture. However, I’m going to give this analysis thing a stab.   Since I really know what’s on the surface, I’ll be able to just sally forth without, hopefully, getting too much off track.  Besides, second and third-hand knowledge seems to be perfect… Read more

  • The Roofers Three

    Much like Scrooge, I’ve been visited by three spirits. – I refer to the roof salesmen as spirits because I’m not sure how I’m going to conjure the money, but whatevers, right?   It needs to be done. The first guy was named Jared from Company A. – Out of the three, he was the best… Read more

    I’m going a little crazy today. Because of the rain, I didn’t leave the property yesterday.   Today, the cold front is passing by.   There’s still a chance of rain, but I’m going to head out here in a little bit.  I just can’t help it. I need a project to work on. Writing, what I… Read more

  • News and other things

    Just some random thoughts. A lot of people are pushing for electric cars or, at least hybrid cars. Okay.   That’s fine.  Cool, but the main gist is to buy a new car and get into debt. I’m not sure how that helps the average person. The last I checked, cars are expensive.   And, while the… Read more

    Hard start this morning. There’s stuff I want to do this morning, but I can’t seem to get the body to move.    Lack of self-discipline, I guess.  I need to get better. Yesterday evening, our time together was spoiled by the roof thing.  Or, my precisely, the money thing.   I can really understand how… Read more
