How We Got Here
Oh, it started before the election; after all, my big question was “how did we get to having these as our choices?” (because honestly, I’m sure no fan of Clinton, either). Well, a lot of folks blame social media. No denying that’s one piece of the puzzle. We’ve dehumanized each other, distanced ourselves. We no…

Privacy? Please?
My gosh, it’s gotten ridiculous. Technology leaves us ever more vulnerable to spamming, to intrusion. And the irony is, part of me desperately wants to be left alone, and part of me needs that tether to the outside world. But some tethers are seriously too much. My email spam is assinine. A lot of it…

Midsummer
Some days I’m fine. Some days I sink right down. Even depression and anxiety can be at odds with each other. I get miserable because I’m lonely, but then I get an invite to go out and do something, and I can’t bear the thought of leaving my safehome. Recently, it’s because I can’t bear…

July Hot Hot Hot
I probably shouldn’t post this. I shouldn’t even be near a computer when I feel this way, but I have the fan pointed at it. Yes, even I am getting a little weary of the heat. I tolerate it much better than most, but I worry about Spirit. I worry about killing my not-so-great AC. …

What We Have To Fear
The following actually happened to friends of mine. I could have shared it on Facebook, but this is a bit more far-reaching. And I want the names left out because…well…because people have gone more insane with every passing day. There are those out to crucify the innocent, should their views be different, or those who…

Looking for Ideas
Themes. Give me new themes! Alice in Wonderland, the Zodiac, the Tarot. DONE! Find new things! The Duchess from Alice in Wonderland. Strength, from the Taror Major Arcana. Anubis, from the Gods collection.

Random Musings
I don’t know why after such a lengthy absence posting I come back with this, but it bugs me. I drive by it 5 days a week. They opened this thing on Route 2 called Dog’s Retreat. There were signs up before it opened, and for some reason, they made it sound so insanely fun. …

Health Update
Another long absence. Few things holding me down, or trying to. The arthritis in my hip is actually a long-ago broken bone in my back, which now has the vertebra slipping and pressing the nerve. Oh, there’s arthritis there too, but overall that’s mild. Good news, exercises at PT seem to be helping considerably. Which…

Some Undead Oz
I haven’t posted any excerpts in a longish time, and since Oz is the popular book, and I just got some copies in, here’s a little taste. You see, when Tinna said the City of Shattered Opals was not so very far, she was going by a dim memory of her own experience, and…

Slacker Me!
Small life update. Collar City Carnival was a fun little event, and I’d love to do more like it. Unlike Reverbicon, which was just too loud to really work for vending, this was a little softer, but still cool music, and a building that is fantastic architecturally (I don’t know if that’s a word, but…
