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

  • Checking in

    Well… hi. I hope everyone’s doing okay. I’m all right. Believe it or not, I actually voted last Wednesday.   I hang around downtown an embarrassingly amount of time, so I walked myself right into the courthouse and did it….  setting off the metal detector of course. Which, I find amusing.  I set off metal detectors… Read more

  • Hi Cupecakecache

    Hi Cupcake! I’ve been meaning to formally introduce myself for weeks, but I haven’t been in the mindset to write or to really do much of anything.  I apologize. Since you’re the only one who has responded to my rabble,  I wanted to reach out. Um…  I’m forty-something years old, unmarried,  and no children.  I… Read more

  • Walking Dead Observations

    While I’ve been in my semi-catatonic stage, I have spent many hours curled on the bed around the Samsung watching the Walking Dead on Netflix. Yeah, I know it’s a wildly popular show, yadda.. yadda.. yadda…. but this is my first time watching it.  I’m sure I have a backlog of things to watch from… Read more

  • Lazy Saturday

    I chose not to go anywhere today. When I woke at 4:30, I had it in my mind to go to the gym, just a I’ve done all week.   The gym doesn’t open till 7am on weekends, so I went back to sleep. I woke at 6. My legs felt achy.  I really don’t know… Read more

  • Today..

    Today, I went to see Doc S. She’s the one that prescribes me my mind-altering anti-depressants and sleeping pills. The tall, thin, short-haired blonde and I usually get long.  We certainly don’t agree, but she’s pretty blunt and to the point.   Ever minute of my half an hour session matters. So much so, I tend… Read more

  • Mouse Quiet

    I think there’s something going on with me. Well, there always seems to be something going on, but I mean really going on. I haven’t wanted to write, play games, go outside… despite this being my second favorite time of the year. I don’t want to go to the doctor, take my meds, or watch… Read more

  • Binging: Untold history of America

    Binging –  What a funny word for an anorexic to be using. For the last week, I’ve been binging on the Oliver Stone’s Untold History of America. I’m definitely — not — a history buff in the least, but I was trying to expand my horizons. Besides, the current political climate tends are fairly confusing… Read more

  • September 12th

    Unlike my sister,  I don’t tend to get massive migraines. –  When she gets them, my little sis actually calls in sick and hides under the covers for about eight to ten hours.     I know it sounds silly, but she does. And, just as a reminder of what she goes through, I got one today.… Read more

  • It’s quiet

    It’s really kind of a sleepy Saturday. Brother and sister are at work.   Mom and Bill are gone for some reason that I don’t really care about. The term has started and everyone is passing, oddly enough.   I think it took me about ten minutes to catch up grading. There’s nothing really going on outside… Read more

  • Grilled Cheese Rambling

    I used to really like grilled cheese – back in the day before saturated fat and carbohydrates existed.  I liked it with just a little butter on both sides, toast the bread in the skillet until the full fat Kraft cheese became really melty, and maybe a little scorched.  I think a little burning gave… Read more
