Status Update: Firstly, I’m still COVID negative and now so is my husband! We are both clear! David never had any symptoms and… I never had COVID so… quarantining in our small little open plan house was kind of surreal. When he FINALLY received his test result (3.5 days after his PCR test), we had […]

COVID and the Saddest Dog in the World
COVID has become a regular part of daily life. We live in a time of plague. Putting on a mask when leaving the house has become commonplace. Not seeing friends and family has become normal. My innate desire to feel repulsion when seeing a large group of people has been allowed to flourish along with […]
“Regular Sick” or Infected 🙀?
I feel terrible. Sore throat, headache, body aches and feeling like I’ve been run over by a truck. So, as I wait for my COVID results, I am trying to heal my body and mind. It’s likely I’m not infected. Mostly because… I’m an introvert and so, as each week in the past few months […]
The World Has Lost Its Mind So Don’t Forget to Hollaback
Last week I read the local news headlines for Madison, Wisconsin (I live in Milwaukee which is like Madison on meth) as I apparently long ago signed up to receive these emails and rarely read them and… I honestly had to sit back on my heels and take a breath. Because it’s like the entire […]
Monday: Electrodes, Needles, Nerves, Static, a Bed and Four Men and an Epileptic Crammed in a Tiny Room
I’m not going to lie. That 👆 sounds like a very messed up porn. Gross. Which is why I don’t feel a lot of people could do an EMG test. Because if you’re not “good with” needles, or have an issue with claustrophobia or with being electrocuted, or being essentially naked on a bed in […]

But then, when it eventually, finally, does manage to OPEN A FILE FOLDER and I verbally exhale an exasperated ‘finally‘, my PC makes a satisfied happy sound which I interpret […]
The World Seems to Have an Attitude Problem
2020 has been shit. We’re all aware of this. It’s the one reality we all share. No matter who you are, you have been affected by coronavirus in some horrible way. And it’s going to continue into 2021 but at least it won’t be 2020. No, it will be something else. The same shit in […]
Well, We Introverts Can’t All Be Normal and Well-Adjusted 😺
I spend most of my time being a recluse and playing Sodoku. I’m an epileptic introvert who is now terrified of her brain degenerating so this is a pragmatic way to spend my time, in my electrified view. At the same time, I can’t play Sodoku all the time so I also spend a lot […]
