Don’t you hate it when everything you try to do turns out wrong? Waking up with a headache is never a good start. I am not repeat, not, in a good mood today. My sleep-deprived self made a special trip to the post office on my bike this afternoon and the bitches were closed. Can […]

Humbug I Say
What the world needs now is love sweet love and possibly something to smile about, but please, enough with the Gangnam Style. I have seen various takes on it, one even including the unfunny Heidi Klum. Now some fool has synchronized his Christmas lights to go with the song. Here’s a peek. Lucky neighbors. Not […]
Gimme a Break
Why, oh why, doesn’t grief take a holiday? It needs to take a long, extended vacation. I will pay the costs. I’m generous. Unfortunately it’s not that easy. We all have our burdens to bear but it’s only for a short time. As Ms. Celie says, heaven last always. Parental duties have worn me […]
Signs, Signs
This morning as I attempted to sleep in, I had a strange vision. Not a dream but a vision, you know the kind that comes to you relatively quickly after closing your eyes. I had already been woken up. I was just trying to salvage the last bit of sleep that I could get so […]
Enjoy the Ride
When we are born, we all are given a certain amount of time on this earth maybe not the same amount, but each of us is given a certain amount. My best friend’s aunt always refused to exercise, stating that we were all allotted a certain amount of breaths, so why would she wanna do […]
It’s a Sick World
The sickness in this world never ceases to amaze me. I just came across the most disturbing thing while I was laying in my bed chillin’ and surfing on the web. You never can be prepared for something like this. In the course of the evening, I am usually drawn to Britain’s Daily Mail. I […]
The Ghost of Thanksgivings Past
As I was running around last night in the cold, wintery mist, running errands and getting sick, I noticed all the Christmas decorations being put up in the stores. The trees on the outside were lit up with their simple string of little white lights which my daughter loved. I can’t wait to bring home […]
My Friends, the End?
Today was one of those cold, overcast days where every negative thought I ever had in the back of my mind has come to the forefront. The winter is creeping in and my body instinctively knows and does not like it. It gives me a bad case of seasonal depression but there’s also been something […]
Melanie’s House
As I get older, my mind shifts to the past a lot, thinking about how lucky I was to have had a nice childhood, a world that is long gone now. My thoughts often to shift to my old friend Melanie with an Irish last name. Our moms met when they were teaching together in […]
Nowhere Girl
If I told you I didn’t like weekends you would probably think I had a serious problem and indeed I do. It’s not really serious, it just feels that way. It’s just part of my panic disorder which I have lived with most of my life. It’s been a thorn in my side since I […]
