In A Younger Day

At current, I’m trying to get a very old PC up and running with the latest software. I finally obtained my cloning machine and have its brand new SSD ready to go. I also picked up a new batter… but now I have a strange problem. It can’t use the power cable and battery together. Continue reading

Countdown

I realized today… after like a week of sleep deprivation – that I need to stay off YouTube. I’ve already been exposed to at least five movies and/or TV shows that I probably should not be watching. Along with someone who posted something sexually explicit on YouTube. I already reported one that involved a half-naked Continue reading

My Life Is A Mess

So, I have my new – previously old – prescription back. This means that as soon as I take the pills, I need to be near my bed. I’m uncertain if I’ll lose consciousness, but sleep would be pretty nice. Like normal, long sleep. My brain can fully cut off … or mostly. Then I Continue reading

Can Anyone Play?

Does it matter who it is? Isn’t it fine? I’m worried right now… but not as much as I used to. I felt almost frantic most of the day… I recognize it now as my mania acting up again. I think I’ve been off the rails for three days now. Without my manual… without my Continue reading

… Been A One

This… this is not good. I’ve in essence been playing the Sims 4 all day long. I’ll no doubt be up most of tonight doing what I should have. I’m also going to do a bit of nibbling. Since I don’t have much in terms of junk food though… that’s a good thing. It’ll be Continue reading

Dreamers

Sometimes I wonder if it’s self-centered or just crude to begin every sentence with “I”… all the time. The other two words would be “my” and “mine.” The concerns and worries only last for a few minutes, but it’s enough to make me cringe just a little. I’ve no doubt addressed this before, but it Continue reading

Quinn

There are many instances where I’ve wanted to throw my hands up and say: “You know what? I quit!” Yet… due to circumstances that I technically control, I can’t do that. I can’t just abandon all the responsibilities I have. I can’t abandon my cat or my friends. I would say family too… but half Continue reading

I Try And I Try And I Try

I’m seriously frustrated and angry from being shot down due to personal experiences or age. I was told earlier today that what I’ve gone through doesn’t matter to anyone. That everyone has experienced the exact same thing. All because I mentioned needing to be cautious because of a valid health problem I have. I told Continue reading

How I Got To Where I Am

Often, I feel when I look back over the course of my life – I wonder who would have written it. It’s the same for many people, and they don’t even realize… just how precious their life story is. How utterly unique! Each one of us is unique. Even identical twins have different perspectives. I Continue reading

Concepts With Silver

I still have days when my mood goes down. What I like so much about my mood stabilizer is that I can’t go down but so far. I never linger there. It’s very nice… a wonderful change from what I’m used to. I’m still getting used to having clarity of thought. While I’m still fretting Continue reading
