    2020-12-26 Soooo Ready

    Having recently run out of episodes of my favorite, albeit old news, comedy series on Hulu, The Mindy Project, I had stopped watching anything altogether.  It was the one show I watched alone. You know, folding laundry or eating lunch by myself on weekdays. All the other shows we watch, we watch as a couple…

    2020-12-25 Merry Efffin Christmas

    It’s a mood. It’s not necessarily a bad mood or a good mood. It’s just a mood. Christmas. Whatever. Yesterday I kinda said efff it to stuff and did what I wanted. I had said previously that what would be good was a repeat of thanksgiving. Just us here at the house having fun. No…

    2020-12-24 It’s Always the Eve of Tomorrow

    Christmas Eve today. On one hand it’s all just fine. I have everything I need here. My people, love, nourishment, warmth, opportunity, and am looking forward to tomorrow and the adventures we will find there.  On the other hand, it just doesn’t feel right. It doesn’t feel like Christmas or the cusp of another residency…

    2020-12-20 Stand in the Mirror and Wait for Feedback

    Sunday again. Lacking sleep again. Still working on that lecture. On and on.  I’m trying not to freak out. You know, but there’s so much to do. Res. GLR. Christmas. Bills. You know I’ve got bills that are like 60 days past due and I can’t even begin.  I don’t know what’s wrong with me.…

    2020-12-19 Christmas is Slithering Near

    See what I did there?  Oh last night I just got seriously smashed. I mean, it doesn’t take much these days. A half a bottle of my favorite red wine, Jam Jar, which is sweet and goes to my head almost immediately. But its sweetness also probably contributes to the midnight wake up with a…

    2020-12-13 “We Will Send a Car to Find You…

    … if you ever lose your way.” Last night I took my FitBit off because I went to bed somewhat early and realized that text messages buzzing my wrist were keeping me from precious sleep. Consequently I have no idea how long I was asleep or what my sleep score was. I know I put…

    2020-12-09 Random Sign from the Universe?… 🅾️🔀⚛️

    I pulled the day behind me yesterday as I tried to get all the things done. But it was just a screen built to protect me from the rampant procrastination coursing my Veins. Arteries too. Today, I think, will be more of the same. I need a serious check-it-before-you-wreck-it plan. Emails piling up, bills piling…

    2020-12-06 Catharsis

    Writing, sharing, and letting go. Yesterday was good and necessary. The Funeral service was good. Strange to see so many people gathered together in close quarters. Strange to see so many people but not recognize them for the masks shielding their faces and emotions. Jim called the funeral home which was in Iowa to ask…
