therapy update
We missed therapy last week, at least K did - she just blanked on the time and didn't make it. I spent about 20 minutes talking to the doctor, but we still paid the full $220 for the time. Ouch ( Read more... ) -
getting a little more off balance
I don't like to admit when I'm getting off balance, but it's clearly happening this week. I'm guessing it's not chemical; I haven't made any changes on that score.
But yesterday, I really went off on a friend who sent me an email. I was doing it in self-righteous indignation, but that's something I don't normally indulge in. I apologized, but I'm ( Read more... ) -

And I’ve found them. There are now eight people essentially new into my life in the last year. All ( Read more... ) -

Why haven't I paid attention to the Indigo Girls before now?
Our local library lets you borrow CDs. And though the RIAA would hunt me down and shoot me for it, I borrow them and rip them to my iPod. Bad boy!
For some reason, they've had a lot of Indigo Girls lately. Wonderful, wonderful music. I'm not quite sure why I haven't run across it before. I think I had them confused with another group - The ( Read more... )
