Comcast finally disconnected me. I owe a lot, so it looks like I'm not going to be on for a while. No phone either. The cell phone works, but I don't know how many minutes I have left.

I am on the neighbor's computer now. I will try to check emails every day or two or three. No promises.

If you were to graph a person's happiness across time, you would see a bunch of ups and downs, as life's events affect us. There is a theory I read a few years ago, that states that each person has a different happiness potential. It would be graphed as a straight horizontal line across the graph ( Read more... )

Another trip to the hospital. I've just gotten back, in fact. It started Monday with that dry, rough hacking. I was sure it was the summer cold coming on. Then Tuesday morning I had a temp of 104, and dry rough hack. I was up a couple hours in the morning and went back to bed. I got up early evening, was up for a couple more hours, took some ( Read more... )

Friends drove two hours Sunday to help with the yard. They also brought over a mower and weed trimmer. Thank you very much! The yard looks clean, barren, empty, sterile, depressing. But it should get animal control off my ass. Not that I've heard a thing from Officer 958 or 951 ( Read more... )

I woke up the other evening, I opened my front door to let the dogs out, and my gate was wide open! Normally, I keep the gate "fake-locked". I have a chain that goes around the gate, and a padlock, but I rarely push the lock shut. It's a pain in the ass to take my keys out every time I want to go in our out of the gate, and it's usually plenty ( Read more... )

Five months and counting. Still, nothing has changed. (Are y'all getting tired of hearing that yet?) I still have trouble sleeping. I isolate. A lot. I make it to the gas station about 3 days a week, and bigger shopping than that about once a week. I do what's necessary, but nothing really has any purpose or meaning, no real joy or sense of ( Read more... )

I went out to the munch last night. The ones where it's just 4 or 5 people I've known for 5 years are ok, but it's not really much of a munch. Last night was one of the better ones. There was one guy I hadn't seen in over a year. There were a couple people I've seen before but never talked to until last night, and a new couple attending their ( Read more... )
