when you’re a stranger

1. Feel guilty! It’s your best skill. But don’t get in touch with any actual people to apologize, seek out help, or, God forbid, improve the moment.
2. Blame poor med management. That’s easy enough, since you haven’t slept in a week and have akathisia out the wazoo, even after discontinuing quetiapine. Lie in the dark […]
in which we wallow in domestic bliss
Friday 16 May 2008 | 3 cookies in the jar
Thus what follows will hardly be a Friday Refrain. Y’all probably demanding, where the littachur at? And all I can say in my uncommunicative defense is that I’ve been not just sewing but SEWING. Which is such an indecent amount of fun that right now I don’t ever want to go back to school […]

I dreamt I had sex with a zombie!
Well, I’ll try to be more lively next time.
Not you—another zombie.

Albeit $200 later, she’s up and running again!—and although (thanks to an about-to-be-abruptly-terminated week-long fling with quetiapine) I feel like post-semester mud and only want to lie in bed eating New York Super Fudge Chunk and watching old movies, how can I keep this blog from you one second longer? Because, speaking of B&J’s and […]

G5 at the doctor’s office in Scottsdale for a cool $90/hr. Typing this on Brujo’s, no, MY laptop, which is evilly slow. Will update from school tomorrow, whence I go to shut down office for the summer. I will say this: DUDE you can get a lot done with no computer. Paradoxically.

I FINISHED.
Well okay almost—one student posted a .docx instead of a .doc file for her final and I have to open/read/grade it at school tomorrow. And I still have to write my own final for the Duende. And a letter of reference. But basically?
I FINISHED.
And now there is bliss. Ecstasy. Dancing in the […]

Please stand by. Or sit. Actually, lying down is even better.
heart-cockle-warming review
Tuesday 6 May 2008 | someone left a cookie
Behold this nice blurb from Publishers Weekly, in re: the Dying Book. Not starred, but a decent review anyway; and maybe they don’t even give starred reviews to Buddhist self-help books? Notice how it says, “clarity”; and, “supremely readable.” Notice too how I’d much rather have a copy of Martha Sielman’s art quilts book, also […]
