Some Comfort Here
I have developed such a need/hate relationship with sleep. I am desperately tired most of the time, but dread falling asleep because I actually do fear I'll die. You'd think I'm just being dram...
When all the tumult dies down
I have not made a very good go of transition. As with so much of my life, I find another foundation cracked and gone. I recover so badly, worse the older I become. I am a person alienated in s...
Awakening of another sort
It was well past midnight and I was dozing in my (still wonderful blue paisley!) recliner. It was one of the rudest awakenings imaginable. Eyes hardly open in the abruptness of being pulled up ...
The other county heard from
Just when you thought I'd discussed disgusting catcrimes in far more detail than anyone would ever care to read, I give you Caticide II. I had cleaned up yesterday's catastrophe as best I could ...
Caticide
If Lucy had done it she would be a dead cat already, but it was Tessa, I'm certain, and, well, I just can't bring myself to killing her - although... I came home from work and there it was, a hu...
Scattershot
Disjointed information. I find myself hardly able to complete a sentence lately, much less a coherent entry. Twelve hidden drafts in about as many days attest to the fact that I just can’t fini...
A Rather Tedious Entry
It has been asked by several, how's the back and how much longer will I be in the backbrace? Hmmm... The back is endlessly annoying. It aches constantly, something I was hoping it would learn t...
Technophile Wannabe with Luddite Tendencies
This is a test. In this test we shall see whether I am able to jump through the requisite hoops to post a picture on this site. The odds are never in my favour. Here goes the first, and I op...
Questions, Answers, and Questionable Methods
"That magic spray? What’s it called?" - gray tabby "Yes, pray tell the name…" - Marg "What is the name of this Blessing From God?" - bonnierose "But what happens you sit on the blue paisley c...
Much Ado About Upholstery, Cats, and Kryptonite
I type this with a semi-mangled hand, courtesy of the righteous fangs of my sweet little Lucyfer. One day I'll forget I love her, react to the sight and sensation of her fangs in my flesh, and f...
Entry Lite
It is a beautiful day today. Sunshine pouring down from the clear blue and the temperature outside is 60F. In this bipolar winter we have going on here, this is a wonderful respite. The next f...
Dilemma is me
Getting my journal off of the old site was an incredible pain. 178 months of writing and the site insisted on me pulling each month out one at a time, kicking me off as often as letting me succe...
Progress of sorts
Through frustratingly long hours of ridiculous effort, I've been able to download my journal entries from 1999 to 2004. I've been locked out and / or kicked off so many times I couldn't care to ...
Bina asked
"Did you manage toget your diary downloaded? If not, can I help at all?" - Bina To which I could only reply: ' No luck yet. The site is crashing every time I hit the download button, when ...
In answer to "Bitter much?" Yes, characteristically.
So that didn't work. The laptop fired up fine but downloading the journal simply would not work. I tried six ways to Sunday, wasting near an hour of getting kicked off site every time I pressed ...
Muddling
Okay. I'm tired of being sick. (I'm also tired of being broken and older than I was and in debt and less than brilliant on a daily basis, and, and, and...) That being said, I have to get worki...
News both bad and good
I've been having trouble with my home insurance company for a while. With many / most (?) mortgages, home insurance is part of the deal, built into the mortgage payment to protect the lender in ...
Strange nights indeed
Huddled in the bed, socks on, big fleecy sweatshirt, flannel jammy pants - warm now under three quilts. It's cold outside, very cold for New Orleans, a few degrees below freezing and that cons...
Sigh
Being evicted is always hard and the longer you have been in a place, the more friends you have made and come to rely upon there, the more painful it is. But that is the way the world does work,...
