I figured I needed to put together a light-hearted blog. So you consider a fictional serial killer “light”? Yes. Have you seen Dexter? In any case, I just got done reading twenty years of neurologists’ reports on me because I dumbly logged into my medical records database to find this lovely summary and… to read […]

So This Week Happened…
It’s been a rough week. Earlier, I found out a dear friend died in a motorcycle accident. A utility van crossed the center line and, by doing so, ended her life. It was sudden and still feels unreal and… irritating. Like, I am super irritated about this. Not fair. Not cool and I don’t want […]
Happy Halloween, Everyone! The 12th and 13th Monster(s)!
I grew up in the Lutheran church and so today for me is also Reformation Day. Personally, I enjoy church holidays which celebrate some good old-fashioned breaking from the empire and its church. I was going to insert some Star Wars characters here but people tend to get testy about religion so I’ll just let […]
Stigma: Epilepsy, Mental Illness and the Same Old Treatment
Reality is a fickle thing. If you don’t share the reality most others share, life is more difficult. Some people run with their “outsider” status and others fight to change and expand how their reality is seen and experienced. And still others do what they can to hide their different reality and quietly assimilate with […]
My Eyes Are Open: Another Spooky Post
Staring at inanimate objects, looking for messages and signs, is one of my many hobbies. I’m not basing my existence on whatever I imagine I see (or really see) but, rather, it’s an imaginative and pleasant way to spend my free time. For example, a couple months ago I was tromping all over our apartment’s […]
MENTAL HEALTH Requires … Listening to Bauhaus in My Creepy Basement with My Friend Chair
I AM FINALLY GETTING A CHEST X-RAY AND ALSO BLOODWORK! 🙌 Wooooohooooooo!!! I am so old and decrepit I regard this as a major accomplishment. I remember when winning an award or finishing my degree gave me the same sense of accomplishment. It’s a bit sad but… how does it go? Life is what happens […]
Monday Morning Blues and Brights
I remember when it would be Sunday night and I was short and I’d be watching TV and I’d resent seeing Jessica Fletcher’s dumb face on Murder She Wrote because it meant that the next morning it would be Monday and school would start once again. I didn’t have any significant problems at school beyond […]
Hell Today
I’m not sure if anyone else thinks “Have I gone too far?” as much as I do in regard to really insignificantly small actions. But I do enjoy the thought of my former keyboard’s space bar being in the ninth circle of hell. I never let my inability to draw hold me back either. Yeah, […]
Some Americans Suddenly Realize Coronavirus Is Not Fake News
My husband and I went to get tested for coronavirus a few weeks ago at a south side National Guard testing site located in the parking lot of a Milwaukee community job center. The attraction was how this site was free, a drive-thru and also did not require an appointment. And it was a remarkably […]
