New MP3

I seem to be in a bit of a blogging funk, which is fine.  It happens.  I’ve been trying to do a bit more personal writing, but I’m not so sure I’m producing much there, either! At least I’m thinking about it, though.  However, I still don’t want my blog to go “stale.”  Things just [...]

The Second Time, The Worst One

October 7, 2009 in Cranky, Facts About Patient Anonymous, Health, Medicine, Meds, Migraines, Political, Spock, The Tummy Blues, Therapy, You Decide

This migraine is my worst ever.  I have only had two “Puking Migraines” in my life.  I’m sure you have guessed this is one of them.  The other happened when I woke up on my 29th birthday.  “Happy Birthday!” *horns tooting* That didn’t matter so much; it happening on my birthday.  I’m not really big [...]

A Bit More Change, A Bit More Me

Take a look at my outermost sidebar.  Notice anything different?
Just something for people to have a gander at, if they choose? It’s all true, I swear! Plus, if you like legalese, it’s all there with the rollover! Apologies for the graphic.  Hard to display “white on white.”  I didn’t really want to muck about with [...]

I Know. You Have Been Very, Very Patient. It’s Almost Done!

Patience? That is for those of you who have been with me since at least the summer of 2008.  You may recall that I had the privilege of visiting a Wild Animal Rescue/Sanctuary.  I shot about 5,000 pictures (slight exaggeration.)
This was (is) a very, very, special place.  Not only had the animals been rescued (sometimes [...]

Merlin #2 and Stoopid Guvmunt But…(!)

September 24, 2009 in ADD, Asperger's, Bipolar Disorder, Facts About Patient Anonymous, Head Injury, Health, Humour, Life is Stranger Than Fiction, Medicine, Meds, Neat Neuro Stuff, Patient Advocacy, Political, Seizures, Therapy

I saw Merlin #2 today, and the first thing he said to me was, “How much weight have you lost?!” *laughing* I responded in my typical fashion, not knowing what the fuck I look like, with a blank stare.  This was of course after we had our happy exchange of:
“You ready PA?” (Merlin #2 more [...]

I’m Here…Back…Sort Of?

August 30, 2009 in ADD, Asperger's, Bipolar Disorder, Blogging, Facts About Patient Anonymous, Health, PTSD, Political, Seizures, Therapy

I’ve never taken a blogging break before.  I’ve had this blog up for what? It will be three years in November? I’ve thought about taking a break many times before, and have always been on the fence about it.  I guess nothing has changed? For here you are, reading this post.
Apart from everything that has [...]

A Nice Italian Merlot?

August 26, 2009 in ADD, Asperger's, Bipolar Disorder, Cranky, Facts About Patient Anonymous, Health, PTSD, Political, Seizures, Self Medication, Therapy

I picked up a bottle of wine on the way home, but at this point, I really don’t care if it’s plonk.  I felt I deserved it after today.  Why do I “deserve” it? Well, several reasons, I suppose.  It’s cheaper to drink at home than it is going out.  It’s a 1.5L bottle that [...]

But Telling Me Sooner Would Have Surely Made More Sense!

August 24, 2009 in ADD, Asperger's, Bipolar Disorder, Cranky, Facts About Patient Anonymous, Health, Life is Stranger Than Fiction, MP3 of the Moment, Meds, PTSD, Political, Seizures, Spock, Therapy, You Decide

I received a lovely Myocardial Infarction in the mail today.  Fucking (NOW EVIL!) stoopid guvmunt…
The money that I WAS receiving because I was laid off is…“poof!” Ironically, I was thinking of trying to find out a way of when it would, in fact, go “poof” but it seems that doesn’t really matter now, does it?
What, [...]

AHHH! Seroquel Disaster! HELP!!!

July 20, 2009 in Bipolar Disorder, Blogging, Cranky, Facts About Patient Anonymous, Health, Medicine, Meds, Patient Advocacy, Political

Yes, screaming, exclamation points, bold font! This is not good.  The “Mandatory Four Hours Until Sleep Marathons” appear to have been just the beginning.  This med is almost working in reverse! And not in a good way! I called Merlin #2 earlier as I had to book an appt. with him anyway but oh my [...]

God Bless Merlin #2 and Hospital? You Can Burn in HELL!

Let’s start with the Deities and then move on to the Demons, shall we?
I saw Merlin #2 a few days ago.  We had a relatively short appt.  Initially, we talked about the change to my new 300mg of Seroquel/Quetiapine XR, side effects that I have already blogged about and my mood(s.)  I said on that [...]
