Most of my life I had sleeping problems. If I was depressed I was too worried to get to sleep. If I was manic I was …well, too manic. I did lots of things throughout the night to pass the time. I would draw, write, etc. Then there were the odd things that I did. […]

Another Big Duh
I’m manic today and as usual I love it. The bad part, however, is Maurice wants to chill on his day off. As a result I want to bounce, bounce, bounce all around the house and he wants to watch the tube. In our tiny apartment that is not a good combination. I always love […]
It’s Official….I’m Old
I’ve never been one bothered by age much. When I was 25 I was a little depressed because hearing I’m a quarter century old was a bit disheartening. I got over that and haven’t been bothered by any birthday since. Yesterday, however, that all changed. The change is worse than crows feet, stiffer joints, birthdays […]
Monkeys and Prarie Dogs
ScienceDaily is one of my favorite medical news sources on the internet. Yes, believe it or not, I do read important news items. Yesterday they reported on a study conducted by the HealthEmotions Institute and The University of Wisconsin that I found important. If you are like me, I’m deeply sorry in many ways. Among […]
Xtreme Blogging
Here and there some nosy so and so will ask how much time I spend online. It’s question that you’ll occassionally hear about television, but never seems to carry as much disdain. This is completely understandable since having intelligent conversation with people all over the world is much less important than some hack lounge singer […]
I Am NOT Okay

Ch-Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes
A dollop of this, a smidgen of that, add a little of this, and then a pinch of this and a pinch of that and what do you get? Finally something to control your mania. But wait, something just isn’t tasting right. So we now have to add a spoon of this and a sprinkle […]
A Quest In The Night
Last night I was surfing the net and there was her picture. She was beautiful. She only lived two blocks from me but I’ve always been able to resist her. Last night was different. She called to me like a siren calls ships to the rocks. It was nearly midnight but I had become enchanted […]
Born To Be Alive
4 years ago when I got sober I rarely went to bars and clubs. Finally one night Maurice and I went dancing (I love to dance). During our dancing the 1979 hit came on called “Born to be Alive” by Patrick Hernandez. We danced and swayed and then I started listening to the words “born […]
