I think the last time I enjoyed summer was back when I was a kid. Back then, it was all waterparks and swimming pools and fireworks and staying over at friends’ houses and running around in the dark of our neighborhoods playing Ghosts in the Graveyard, Witches Come Out Tonight and other shocking children’s games.

Epilepsy, 3 Hospitals, 7 Vials of Blood and a Key Lime Martini
So… how was your Monday? 😺 Mine turned out to be a Big Day. Now in this odd little blog, I tell a lot of random stories. But lately I’ve strayed away from my health issues (epilepsy etal.) because I’ve been enjoying a blissful break from hospitals. Yet, this all changed Monday and now you’re […]
To Be (Allergic) or Not To Be: The Small Saga Continues
This entry provides an update of my theory that my epilepsy medication is causing my body to physically fall apart. As an update, it’s now been a week of me being off Briviact, the epilepsy medication I’m theoretically allergic to, and also a week of being back on the only other medication (Levetiracetam) which prevents […]
When Life Gives You Lemons You Smile and Say “Thanks I Hate You Sometimes You’re a Jerk”
Right. With everything that has happened and which is actively happening, it seems my weak body is simply giving up. And my mind is absolutely disgusted with it. Watching “The Greatest Events of World War II in Color” on Netflix not only gives me the chills because we can explicitly see history repeating itself in […]
Joining the Dark Side
Well, the Bank Doesn’t Care if Your House Is Haunted is available as a lovely little DIY storybook which is printed and assembled here at home and bought through my Etsy shop… and now it’s also available on motherflipping Amazon as an e-book. That’s right, I’m continuing to join the 1990s. One day I may […]
Dog or Gremlin
Tuesday marked the 13th year my husband and I have been legally married. Through thick and thin, we have remained married. And now we are older. I should be a writer for Hallmark, I know. And, once we thought about it, since we dated for 5-6 years, we have been together FORFUCKINGEVER. Love him. But […]
Dirty Winged Creatures
I was diagnosed with chronic asthma yesterday. Good timing, eh? What with the shifty global pandemic continuing to wreak havoc on the entire world, whether people want to believe it or not, it’s not an excellent time to have asthma. And, not only that, but I may be on my way to acute bronchitis once […]
Weakness, Witches and Signs of the Time
I’m not able to leave the house much because I have bad lungs. I am still in the revolution, as my friend refers to it, but I’m also living in a time of coronavirus like most other humans on earth and, since I’m more susceptible to the virus because of my bad lungs, I’m staying […]
“Want a beer?” and Other Life-Saving Techniques
“Want a beer?” is what I’d hear if I walked into a Wisconsin friend’s house because it’s what is first said when terrible (and good) things are actively happening. I’m so demoralized and not surprised by all the news reports about American violence of late I’m going to talk about drinking alcohol. However, I’m not […]
