About the money

Usually, when pressed, I tell people that I’m lousy with money. This isn’t exactly true.  I understand  a budget and prioritizing expenses and all of that stuff.  I just don’t do it. Like many people in my generation, I have a real hard time with the concept that I should have to wait to get [...]

Yoga and the Jeckles

Sometimes I get this feeling that I should blog daily.  I suppose this would be easier if my posts didn’t tend to run to 1000  word manifestos. Also, I fear that I probably just say the same things again and again.  Just using different words each time.  I really shouldn’t give it that much thought.  [...]

Identity Crisis.

I’ve had a lot on my mind lately.  Enough so that those around me have commented on how distracted I am.  They probably believe I am being rude or ignoring them… but that’s not the case.  I just have these thoughts swirling in my head and they distract me. If you’ve read this space for [...]

Life is good… but the crossroads remain.

April?  It’s really been since April?  Wow.  I’m not very disciplined with this whole blogging thing, but that comes as no shock to the few of you who have stuck with this on and off again blog. It’s not that I don’t have anything to write about. And I’d be kidding myself if I said [...]

Luck

Did I tell you what happened to me when I moved into this place? I can’t remember… I guess I could look back and see… or I could just tell you now. When I came to sign the lease, I parked right on the main street here.  There was a fair amount of traffic behind [...]

What a difference a month makes…

It would be easy to attribute it to one thing or another, but I suspect the reality is more complex than that. January and February are hard on me every year.  The long nights.  The overcast days.  It fills me with despair.  A cloud that hangs over me till spring.  I’ve often wondered how early [...]

This counts as a good thing…

I guess if you didn’t know me… or at least didn’t know me well… these last several posts would make me look like a whiny little bitch. But, I hope, those who know me well will understand what’s going on here. I’ve found over the years, that sometimes committing a thought to paper helps to [...]

Shades

I take my sunglasses with me everyday when I leave the house. People don’t get me. This never fails to surprise me.  I don’t think I am very complicated.  I tend to say what I mean.  I’m just me.  But people get it wrong. I say that I want to be around people, but people [...]

Breathe

This past week was hellish. I could blame on it work.  Or the insomnia.  Or perhaps the low grade fever I was running part of the week.  And none of that shit helped… But none of that was the problem either.  The problem exists in my head.  That isn’t to say that the problem isn’t [...]

What now…

That is the question that is in my mind, I think.  Day and night, just below consciousness the question is there. What I am going to do now? It’s more that just a question of finding something to occupy my time.  I realize that the very way I’ve defined myself for the last several years [...]
