I hang out occasionally on CounterSocial (CoraxCelticus, of course). A few days ago, someone in the community firehose posted a video of MIT students squaredancing. It instantly took me back to when I was six or so, to a high school gym in the Houston, Texas area. My little sister and I with coloring [...]

In my quest to write more in this thing, I've sought out journal prompts. A fun one that caught my eye was "Five odd things you like" so after some thought, here are five odd things I like.• The Number 19

The why of this one is easy. It's the day of the month [...]

Because I do want to write in here more, I looked up some writing prompts. One suggested was along the lines of would you want to be famous or not.For me, it's absolutely not. The short answer as to why is that I'm an introvert. The longer answer is that though I'm more of [...]

Life is More Of The Same. This is not a bad thing, at least not usually. I admit, the days can blend together, but at least I get up, walk around, and am not doing so through a grey goop. Not at the moment, anyway.

I've gotten back to interacting with some of the [...]

ADD is fun. Sometimes. Today is what most people with ADD would call a "good executive function" day. I re-washed the sheets that had sat for a couple days in the washer, dried them, folded them, and put them away on a shelf in the closet. Then I washed, dried, folded, and put away [...]

(This will be just a bit of creative writing with no particular goal or plot or anything in mind.)

Blue-grey shadows stretch arms across an open, meandering line that might be a path in more hospitable weather. More shadows lay in pools near humps that presumably hid bushes or rocks. An indistinct figure wrapped [...]

I'm not sure what to feel, or if I really feel much of anything at all. John (the HusBrat) got a call from his sister last week that his mother had died. It wasn't precisely sudden. She'd been on oxygen for years because she was a chronic smoker most of her life, and she'd [...]

It's not too bad at the moment. I get little bits of indications that a depressive episode might be coming, but for the most part, I can get past them. Raven is a huge help in that department. The day I don't feel like cuddling her or am not at least a little excited [...]

A lovely thing: my crack is back. HEB's Creamy Creations Candy Cane ice cream. Peppermint ice cream with little candy cane pieces mixed in. If I'm not careful, I can eat an entire half-gallon in one sitting without even blinking. It's just so very good.I'm a bit more restless than usual lately. I'm not [...]

I'm still futzing around with things, hopefully getting my act together.
