Part Two
I am sorry it has taken so long to get around to part two of the insanity adventure. I needed some time to get an angle on it. How to tell the story without telling too much. What can I, should I share and what not. I am motivated to finish it now after just…

30 hours in a fishbowl
“There are enough red flags on your chart for me to want to put a hold on you”. This came after a two-minute interview with a mental health professional tasked with triaging ER psych admits. What to do with the afflicted. Two minutes. I watched her walk around for another hour. I asked sever times…

Getting it out
I used to use this space to hurl up and out all the crap that was eating me alive from the inside out. I used to use it to purge an unshakeable thought, like a funky 80’s hook song that just won’t get out of your head. I used to use this place to share…

Excuses
I heard an interesting comment recently that has rustled around in my head like a few fallen leaves, caught up in a corner, the wind spinning them ’round-n-round in a seemingly endless yet, pointless dance.

Love to be hated
I once again find myself the object of hatred. Hated by people that have not met me. Not talked to me. Have no idea of who I am. They simply know what I am not. I am not the right age. I am not monied. I am not educated. I am not successful. I am…

Be Here -and- Be There?
Plan ahead! Prepare for the future! Know where you are going! Be in the moment! Be present! Do not project! Hmm. Which is it? Live for the moment or do things that will make the future better? Sure, I might get hit by a bus or speeding piece of space junk. Maybe I will choke…

If it ain’t one thing …
Normally if I have my pants down and an attractive blond woman says, ‘Wow, that’s huge”! I feel pretty good about things. Shoulders back, head up, pirate smile and a gleam in my eye. Of course, if this woman happens to be a medical professional with a latex glove and only four of five fingers…

The man cold
There is a phenomena in the world that had been kept secret far too long. It is time to address this and make it known to the masses. It is simple yet, misunderstood. Prevalent, yet ignored as insignificant. It is real. Very real. And it is world-wide. It is, the man cold. On the surface,…

Expectations
That ‘thing’: the result of expectations is who is most let down when they are not met? If you are the one not living up or if you are the one being let down, both sides suffer some what. I suppose the level of expectation by both the expector and expectee are the key to…
