Fixin’ For A Fix
I didn’t realize just how messed up some of these episodes of “Intervention” are. Then… I thought about it. I have seen people on that show do lines off the lid of a toilet’s tank. I’ve also seen them pull water from inside the toilet bowl to dissolve and properly shoot up heroin. The idea… Continue reading

Is This Even A Job??
Step 1: Figure out if I even have a talent or ability that would be marketable. Step 2: Market it. Step 3: Repeat step one. Step 4: Create a business proposal. Step 5: Give up. Step 6, repeat steps 1,4 and 5 in reverse order. Is this a job? Sitting with someone to spend time… Continue reading

Stringed Together Rhapsodies
I’m… Irritated, angry, frustrated, a bit jaded and distressed. I told a friend of mine today that a decade ago, I never saw my life going the way that it has. There were things that I should have done when I had the physical strength to… things that I can’t really do now. But… At… Continue reading

Funny Story…
I was already a homebody before the pandemic. When Covid came though, I pretty much turned into a recluse. I don’t leave home often, and when I do… I’m always worried about getting sick from someone.

Finding The Right Angles
It’s strange. I was assigned to keep up with a blog or some sort of journal to keep track of myself… and just to vent, I suppose. So I decided to do this, and I was really worried. I’ve had blogs before… and I didn’t want to go foolishly down the same path. It didn’t… Continue reading

Discovering You
If I was asked about twenty years ago where I saw myself… I don’t think I would have ever expected myself to be here. Unfortunately, I was in the habit of never having any long-term plans. I just… drifted for a solid ten years it seems… So, when things began to fall out the bottom… Continue reading

Puff Balls
The sheer impact of their words. Any words really. People can get hurt with harsh words, yes, however, people don’t always understand how much a positive comment can help lift someone up. Being nice, showing concern… is unfortunately very rare in this world, or at least that’s how it seems. ~J. Lyst I’m grateful to… Continue reading
