I bet you love to help people. As a matter of fact, I bet you think you are tops when it comes to helping others. You don't miss out on an opportunity to help someone in need and when something comes across your inbox begging for help for cancer patients or dialysis patients, you just don't (and won't) say No and are more than happy to pass along ( Read more... )

I still haven't figured out why the big fanfare over birthdays. Just another day closer to death is all it means to me. That and a day to "rightfully" expect gifts. So what do birthdays mean to you? Is it a celebration of life's little joys or just another day no more or less special then any other day?

I had every intention of doing a lot more talking about my bipolar disorder and how it's affecting my life and how I'm overcoming it, but with my WRAP - which I haven't had to use more then once since moving home - and my medications - which I'm taking every day without complaint - I really have found things fairly smooth sailing. I've made it past ( Read more... )

For the longest time I wanted to have kids. I wanted the joy of being a parent, even knowing it's not all rose petals and silk. I wanted the security in knowing that I'll have passed something lasting on to the world that could perhaps make a difference once I'm dead and buried ( Read more... )

So I've been keeping pretty busy with work. I sent my lady friend a letter, hopefully I'll get a response within the next few days. I so do miss hearing from her ( Read more... )

I am now working two jobs. I’m still at Ryan’s making $6.85/hr and now I’m working at Sonic franchise making $7.00/hr and this job is infinitely easier then Ryan’s.

Due to this, I will be blogging a lot less then I have been. Once I get the schedules down, I’ll probably be able to make some time to continue blogging. I really enjoy doing this.

Posting here because I still want my LJ friends to keep up and I can't figure out how some other folks get their WP blog entries into LJ - well I can think of one way but that seems to be a pain in the ass and I'm not interested in doing really complicated things - so I just might copy and paste relevant bits, uncut in this posting, there as well, ( Read more... )

Been having a good time of it up in Knoxville. Things between artzamy23 and I are going well. Right now her son and I are spending a day together (I'm off from work and she's at work 5 days a week) and things are not a total wreck. He bathed, I showered; he ate, I ate. Changed a few diapers and now he's napping (without a pacifier, woot ( Read more... )

It seems the blogosphere is taking notice of Steve Kubby's plight. I just hope he gets access to the medicine that was actually keeping him alive and not some ineffective synthetic shit.
