It's never made sense to me why the hardest question for me to answer has always been "Who am I?" You'd think that would be quite a simple thing, but I've found it to be incredibly difficult, complex, confusing and frustrating to even attempt to answer. Perhaps it's because the question is...

Not long ago I started making a list of the types of generators I have developed. The largest group is the "Alien/AU/Non-English words" batch. Related to that is the "Altered word" category. Other categories include: "Warrior Cat stuff" "Bureaucratic satire" "Academic or Medical parody" a few...

Three German Actresses: Nadia Hilker, Antje Traue, Franka Potente
Waking in the middle of the night is confusing for me. Things that seem so certain during the daylight hours feel twisted and shadowed. Sometimes even the most simple and good things seem darkened and scary at nighttime. I don't like it. I guess the easy answer seems to be to stay in bed and...

If you had asked me a year ago if I would be in a healthy, committed relationship with someone who both loves and supports me by today's date, my answer would've been a loud no. It's been a long time coming. It still feels a bit like I've made all of this happiness up, like I am still sitting on...

 My approach to reading is similar to walking around without tying your shoelaces. You start off with a certain direction in mind but you're never really sure where you may end up. When you read you will often come across words you don't understand. Yesterday I came across a definition that...

Aspergers & Autism

Checking my Whatsapp chats I've realized that I have three friends that I interact with, in the present: one is a college friend that lives in the other side of the Atlantic, a virtual friend that also lives in the other side of the Atlantic, and a friend (mom of a friend of my daughter's).

I keep trying to write about the phrase "when life gives you lemons, make lemonade", but the result always makes me want to punch myself in the throat - like I deserve a good throat-punch for writing something so cheery. So let me put it like this: I was once taught that losing is a personal...

Grup Yorum, a folk rock band in Turkey is continually having its members jailed by the dictatorial government. There are about 11 members in jail currently. But as members are arrested very brave new musicians join and keep it going.

A trouble shared is a trouble halved. The problem : There is a vast difference between the owner of the trouble and the recipient of the trouble through the sharing process. The owner of the trouble can feel a big relief through sharing - 50% But the receiver of the trouble share does not take...

This very brief entry was originally posted on my tumblr page. There is no question that makes me more uncomfortable, that makes my mind and heart freeze more, than the question, “What Do You Do?” I dread it in every conversation that I have, with people I haven’t seen in a few years, with...

I watched the following video recently and wanted to add some comments from my own experience. When I was a child I sometimes went to the grocery store with my grandmother. She wanted to be nice and asked me: "Would you like me to buy anything for you? What would you like?" I never chose...

I like my routines and when everything works as I had planned or expected. However, it doesn't always work obviously. I have three main strategies to cope with this: 1. Making backup plans I go to work by bus and train. They are rather reliable in general, but of course there can be problems...

I have two friends who used to be a couple, who were friends of my ex and I when we were a couple too. We don’t live in the same country anymore, but when I learned that they separated more or less at the time than we did, I contacted them (separately). What she said about their separation was...
