I have had some trouble figuring out how and what to post.

Lots in life is going smoothly; work is rolling along, and school; while i'm busy I think I finally have a schedule that at least doesn't exert an emotional toll on me week by week. It's almost sustainable, I think: though it changes each semester, still. ( Read more... )

The new stop on the 7 train means that while my trip to work (when I'm working as a therapist) isn't any shorter, I can take one train rather than 2, with a different walk at the other end. When I have a little extra time, I can walk on the High Line (it's not precisely as direct as walking on the street) but it is kind of a beautiful space tucked ( Read more... )

For those who were following the story of the witch, I *did* ultimately leave a note. In the end, her note made it so clear she thought the witch was stolen, I felt that at least being able to say: "look, somebody might have thrown her away on purpose, but nobody is keeping her from you" -- had some kind of value. The process was interesting to me ( Read more... )

I work (very) part time as a supervisor at a clinic; I'm officially there Wednesday nights and I have been going for 45minutes on Thursdays for the Summer to help supervise a new clinician. I borrow the office of a Psychologist who has filled the office with many homey touches: a fabric mural, pictures of family and friends, plants, and a shelf ( Read more... )

I'm writing about this here because frankly, I am kind of oddly picky about what I write on Facebook, where more people who would want to know some of this information might read. But I haven't curated my friends list on Facebook appropriately, so here we are.

I have been sleeping somewhat badly all week. I wake up after a few hours and take an hour or so to get back to sleep and then wake up early for whatever...it's not *awful*, per se, but I am operating on a kind of semi-benign sleep-debt that seems to be hovering. When will it land, when will it fall? Things on my mind:

"I've caught the hints ... I get what you're saying. You want to ride the Bull."

It was really the first moment in a computer game where I realized I was doing something (in this case, going to kill a dragon) to impress a boy. I mean, not quite a boy, a 7.5-foot tall horned mercenary who followed a very odd and peculiar social code. I mean, the ( Read more... )

I started to write this post and LiveJournal was like "Do you want to restore from your saved post?" and THAT post was from the end of the Summer. Since it's Mid-January, this lets me know how well my whole 'Maybe I should write or journal or something' issue has been going. I think I have a sense of 'what' or 'how much' I should write and then ( Read more... )

Hey there--

Is anybody looking at/playing on Storium? I ran across it from a Kickstarter place, and I'm currently quite intrigued. Essentially, what if the rules around your online collaborative storytelling were more about how to set up and have characters engage in story goals, rather than just saying "I can blow up X" or "I can punch as hard ( Read more... )

What do you give the guy who already has too many jobs? Why, another job of course ( Read more... )
