my summer-standin "backing/supporter in daily living" (a contribution/support financed by the "state";) which i asked for and want + need.)
Came today with "the" comment: you need to find friends (since i don't have any).
I do like this individual that send this earlier today.
But it seems like...
It's been odd, watching management readjust to realizing that my needs might be different, and require a little adjustment in their parts.
Yesterday, the debacle over my OT issue had been resolved; I'll get comp time, pretty much at my own discretion, if I just "shave" days--an hour here, two...
As some of you might know from the past few months ago when I posted about it; my mom has been transferred to a carehome, since she’s not able to live at home anymore. The care she needs is too intensive to provide here with all the therapies she has and as time passes and my dad and she visit...
A particularly interesting private conversation lead me to write something I'd like to make a little more public, and take in a direction other than the conversation went.
My new owner--er, employer--...(sigh). Freudian slips are so interesting, aren't they?
My new employer mandates diversity...
I am having a terrific case of Happy Art; I gave up perfection and stopped rating my craftsmanship. Instead I thought about writing with as few words as possible, pouring all the ideas into it, then paring them down, and leaving a splendid array of profligate puns and dead-ends. I love this...
When you ask me what my favorite movie is, I shrug. In a long history of film throughout the world and all the film that will come in the hereafter, no one above the age of fifteen can accurately tell you what their favorite film is because it would be impossible to have just one. If you ask me...
I have a lot of ideas floating around in my mind that are like whisps of smoke - they don't have a defined form. They are also similar to the visual of the wisp of smoke in the form of images and physical feelings.
(I don't think feeling is the most accurate word to describe what I experience...
"Art saves lives" is the tagline for one of the art schools in my area, and I believe that to be literally true. How it goes about saving a life merits a thoughtful look at what life requires of us, and we of it, to make it rewarding, or at least bearable in the rough spots.
I had a job once...
Christmas fancy dress might be a simple pantsuit or perhaps an official golf ball dress. The actual gold guideline would to your clothes to the occasion. Do not b or overdressed even. Because of the holiday joyful environment, you have an opportunity to present their own brilliant ensemble and...
Notes:
Nephew's first birthday. Was thanked profusely and repeatedly for helping with kids and taking stress off of mom and dad.
Father's birthday. Good, but he's not well.. He has congestive heart failure and water retention is a big problem. He's getting worse and has already gone to the...
Well was was expecting to start last Monday at the new Job- however a voice mail informed me that start date has be postponed until this Thursday- seems a strange day to start a job- however who am I to question?- Its given me a few days to try to get a few things organised- once work starts you...
I know not what awaits me,
God kindly veils my eyes,
And o’er each step of my onward way
He makes new scenes to rise;
And every joy He sends me comes
A sweet and glad surprise.
Where He may lead I’ll follow,
My trust in Him repose;
And every hour in perfect peace,
I’ll sing, “He knows...
As is usual with me, I fall upward after very painful reversals. If the credit check is OK, I will be employed again in less than a week.
The creative writing machine is cranking into gear. Did over 3000 words today.
I will need to slow down, I actually do need genuine rest from all the...
I wrote this in October of last year and still relate to it a lot. It just really helps me.

I mean "a" as in a very specific one. It's in pieces in a few plastic grocery bags, all shoved into one grocery bag, which was then hastily jammed into the trash can in the kitchen.
This was after...

I'm utterly lonely, unfulfilled, unhappy.. I'm making every effort to move forward in life, but all I can see in my minds eye is that vital direction soon petering out to a dribble, a spit.. then nothing. I see no future for me, just pain, lingering.. then nothing.
I'm trying with...
I was looking for one of Billy Collins animated poetry videos, so of course youtube recommended this.
Please enjoy.
Hahaha.
More and more I’ve been running into an interesting situation. By my therapist, by social services… and even the government office who pays disability income (despite I’m not a recipient; I have been there a few times for interviews).
As it is now more and more the focus is shifted towards...
One of the things this blog does for me is provide some kind of minimal accountability:
It's part of my daily writing regimen.
I can't just write blah blah blah. If I'm going to blah, it has to blah about something. I mean, I do think about you, Reader. (Gentle Reader, if you're an Isaac Asimov...
This is an expansion of my post on why I signed the Petition Against Autism Speaks, which anthoskate published this morning in the General Autism Spectrum Discussions>General Autism Discussion. As usual, my first effort always benefits from editing; there was more I could have done, and much I...
