When I returned home after graduating from Valleyhead, I wasn’t thrilled to face the double whammy of living with both Mom and Tammy. It was horrible—absolutely miserable. Between the two of the...
Warning! This part is pretty dark and heavy. Read at your own risk! What I hated most about Valleyhead was its overly structured and hectic routine and the fact that you had no space or privacy...
In late August, Dotty, a couple of people from DSS, and I all piled into a van together. Dotty told me we were going to get carpet for my so-called new rooms in the new house we were supposed to...
In April 1982, I became a ward of the state while attending an alternative high school. For years, I struggled with the question of how it all came to be. Did my parents willingly give me up, or...
The summer of 1981 through the summer of 1984, when I was fifteen to eighteen years old, were the worst years of my childhood. The amount of stress, fear, anxiety, anger, confusion, frustration,...
In 1978, we moved from the newer side of Longmeadow to the older section. Although the house was much older, it was bigger and I liked it a lot better. It didn’t have much of a back or front yar...
We had a summer cottage at Old Colony Beach in Old Lyme, Connecticut. As soon as school let out, we’d head there and stay until Labor Day. My family began going to this beach when I was a baby a...
James and Charlotte were good friends of my parents. I liked them, along with their daughter Shelley, who was a lesbian. Another couple close to our family was Goldie and Al, and I liked them as...
I don’t remember my mother working until I was older, though I vaguely recall my parents owning a record store when I was very young. Also, when I was little, my father did some extermination wo...
In 2002, I finally decided to write my autobiography, drawing on the memories and journals I’ve been keeping since 1987. I worked on it on and off throughout the years. I was, and still am, the...
December 1989 in 1980s
SATURDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1989 Well, I am now on flight 777 and to hell with Springfield for one solid week! I had no problems taking off, either. I didn’t get nauseous or dizzy but my ear is block...
December 2019 in 2010s
Sunday, December 1, 2019 Things are going great and Winnie is now just about completely configured and set up. There are only one or two features I’m missing that I’m unable to have on it. I’m ...
November 2019 in 2010s
Friday, November 1, 2019 The new NaNo sucks and is completely fucked up and confusing. Got 1667 words in yet it says I’ll finish on December 10th, my writing speed is only 1 word a minute, and ...
October 2019 in 2010s
Tuesday, October 1, 2019 Aly bought a copy of Shane and it showed up on my reports right away. Now let’s hope I get more sales! So far we’ve been getting away with not needing heat, but since ...
September 2019 in 2010s
Sunday, September 1, 2019 So if it isn’t nightmares waking me up at night, it’s traffic. Yeah, the paramedics blew through here at 2 a.m. and woke me up. Damn. Just damn. You know, I’m sorry if...
August 2019 in 2010s
Thursday, August 1, 2019 Not much to update on other than that I had a warm but pleasant evening walk for a half-hour (no skunks), and I might have made a mistake by befriending Dixie. Now, I h...
WEDNESDAY, JULY 31, 2019 I was telling Tom about my visit with Dixie the other day and how it was a weird coincidence that someone with her name on Facebook was suggested to me right after meeti...
SUNDAY, JUNE 30, 2019 HR has been going wonky again. It’s more that it’s been beating hard than fast. I don’t smoke, I’m active, I’m relatively healthy, so hopefully it’s no big deal. But yeah, ...
FRIDAY, MAY 31, 2019 One way Aly has found me was by googling journal excerpts since I often drop copies on multiple sites. Plus, I use the same titles. So I decided to not only use different ti...
April 2019 in 2010s
Monday, April 1, 2019 Tomorrow (I would have started today had I not misplaced the GP’s nail clippers) I will be clipping a third of my pills so it’s like I’m taking 50s again. No real anxiety ...
March 2019 in 2010s
Friday, March 1, 2019 Really not liking a flooring company showing up at the Twenties and all the door slamming associated with it. I’m sure there’ll be enough sawing and hammering, too. Can’t ...
February 2019 in 2010s
Friday, February 1, 2019 We’re planning on taking the glue gun and gluing the side guards down to the tray pans. Whoever designed this cage was a real idiot. The skeleton of the cage is great. ...
January 2019 in 2010s
Citrus Heights, CA Age: 53 Tuesday, January 1, 2019 It’s been wonderful starting the new year off without all the damn planes but I’m sure they’ll be back in a day or so. Especially if it was...
December 2018 in 2010s
Saturday, December 1, 2018 Viva la Juicy will be my next and final perfume sample. Not feeling great at all today but at least I’m not anxious… Yet. I haven’t been sleeping well since stopping...
November 2018 in 2010s
Thursday, November 1, 2018 So now my curiosity is settled and Tammy has once again proven to be the liar that she can be. Fucking bitch! Norma said she’s in a great deal of pain and on a lot o...
