The Lowdown, Yo
I've got two more pieces of the Book Excerpt Article Series up, the second of which is considerably longer than the first. This is to make up for my silence this past week. I apologize for that. I've gone back to selling on eBay and have been so busy working ...

Watch That Blood Sugar
My blood sugar bottomed out on me today. It's never happened to me before. I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes about 3 years ago, and I take Metformin for it. Today I was hanging out with my brother David as he worked on the main house remodeling, and I ...

In Which I Rant

Distant Travel
So I was sitting here accomplishing not a friggin' thing, feeling like crap, and the thought of cooking was too much to bear. So I got online and ordered a pizza from Domino's – not my first choice, but it's the only place that delivers here. I wait for the ...

Blessings Needed For a Friend
From my friend Judith: This week, I start the third round of my treatment. This includes a biopsy on my arm to see if the cancer has spread. To pay for it, I'm trying to drum up some work I can do from home, so if you need any media, database, ...

World AIDS Day
Yesterday was World AIDS Day, and as I often do, I got distracted and missed the opportunity to post about it. However, I'm going to make up for it now. Today while sitting in a waiting room and leafing through the most recent issue of Entertainment Weekly, I discovered a ...

Friday is a Black Nothing Day
Okay, so I'm not exactly demonstrating the razor-sharp wit today. That could be because I had two hours sleep before going to my mother's for Thanksgiving dinner, and since then I have slept only one more hour. I made the mistake of eating mashed potatoes with lactose-icky milk in them ...

No More Politics
While it's known that I'm liberal and will be voting to reflect that, I have deleted several political posts made in recent weeks, including the video I posted of what occurred after the recent Presidential debate. Politics had taken over this blog, and while it's a topical, er, topic, it's ...

Funky, Weird, and Out of Sorts
There’s so much to say and so many things going on lately that my mind is actually blank. I don’t know where to start or what to include, and let me tell you: it’s a rare day that I’m at a loss for words to put in my blog. This ...

Meridjet’s Use of the Process
As promised, I’m posting some archival stuff since InsaneJournal is loading (albeit slowly). I’m going to put in a few excerpts in an attempt to create a progression because it’s been a while since my last set of archival posts. From 13 October 2003: …First off, it became increasingly apparent yesterday that ...
