From the blog, Bumblebees Can\'t Fly
Friday, July 3rd The worry of a parent.  Does it ever end?  We love our children.  We would do most anything for them.  But then there is a point when the parents can give no more and the "now adult" child has to be responsible. My son's papa had a chat with AJ.   AJ is 28, will be 29 this July.  Anyway, AJ's dad told him he could not pay the ... Read more »

From the blog, Taking my life day by day, step by step.
It has been awhile since I’ve written anything. My poetry seemed to come to a screeching halt as the year progressed and my depression was masked much easier. It came to the last day of school, and since I had no classes that day… I didn’t want to go. But I’m glad I did end up going. Though, I had a great time, saying goodbye is always hard. It is ...

From the blog, A Blog of Thinking Allowed
I think mediations were (are?) meant to save the Judge and court system time, in that they weed out and allow those on opposite sides to come together in some agreement.  That's laughable to me now.   I had to  attend (you are court ordered you know to attend) what was a total waste of my time, but an obvious going through the motions to get to court and before ...

From the blog, Finding Peace with Myself
I have taken a good look at where i'm at right now and realize the depth of the misery that I am in (to a point).  The fact of the matter is, I have three beautiful children, a wonderful husband and an apt roof over my head.  So what's to be sad about? Still, I feel at a loss for a purpose. Some days I want to lay in bed and throw ... Read more »

From the blog, turquoisesea\'s lagoon of thoughts
My sister graduated from High School today.  She's on her way to college, and is so excited about it.  I'm glad for her.  And a bit jealous - because I wasn't excited to get to the school I went to.  When I found out I was accepted, my response was "oh, ok."  I guess because at that point I was already hurting. Going to a graduation ceremony made me really sad.  ... Read more »

I don't give a damn." Or something along those lines...maybe Ol' Blue Eyes, "I Did It My Way." Methinks I'll take both and run like hell, sprinkle powdered sugar along the way since there is no fairy dust available, and sing Joplin as loudly as I can. Hurray for tough old broads who stop pretending they are ladylike in their actions, and most certainly not in their thoughts. (*smirk*)... Read more »

From the blog, LIMINALITY
Well, to be honest the sounds I making are more close to ngh, graawww, grrr, and hrm....but "erk" is my trademark "noise" I use when I'm in distress because of things like too much information. But damn, triggered like you wouldn't believe today. It was awful really. So, I'm going through the day as I usually do. But then, I keep hearing a voice that tells me "-insert my name here because I'm not ... Read more »

From the blog, Chaotic Randomness
I am all anxietied out. Feelings and similar crap doesn't matter-I can act the part, but I don't really give a shit about anything. I want to talk, but I have no idea what to say... Good thing I edit before I publish, I had wrong words in. Not that anxietied is a /real/ word...but its apt. I feel I should be more precise and give more about this, but I ... Read more »

From the blog, A Week In the Life
The beauty of Sirius radio.  You can drive around and listen to anything.  You have choices.  Last week Sirius radio gave us Dave Matthews radio for one week.   I listened to this station a lot.  There were live songs, cover versions of popular songs, and older songs.  While driving to work I heard the song "Ants Marching" which I have heard hundreds of times.  The lyrics in the second verse:...

From the blog, Lawrence C. King
Giving council, guidance and support. Do you do this? have you done this? this can be stressful at times. In our world people are constantly seeking attention, through complaints and making life out to be so hard on them, or unfair. I think this is manufactured by societies un achievable standards of ridiculous success, outlined by materialistic ideals and lifestyles. These things are rarely secured by the average person thus leaving ... Read more »

From the blog, Under the Macrocosmic Apoptosis Signal
So who does "God" remind you of most from the cast of HEROES (the series)?Obviously you can only answer if you have good familiarity with the show and its characters -- and you can really only comprehend the answers under those conditions too. Malady answers: NOAH BENNETT Because:   He always has something more important to do He always has ... Read more »
