"Heroes don't have to be public figures of any kind. Heroes are right in your family. There's amazing stories in all of our families, you just have to ask, 'and then what happened?'"

My Lobotomy
"We never talked about the future. We never talked about what would happen when we got out of Rancho Linda. I don't know if that's being a teenager, or being a teenager in a place like Rancho Linda, but you lived only for the day, or only for the moment. It was all about getting through whatever was happening right now. You didn't worry too much ( Read more... ) -

On The Road To Find Out
I feel like I'm on the path to recovery. I feel like I'm getting to a good place. For the first time in a long time I'm starting to feel my old self coming back, little by little. I cannot say that this just happened all the sudden, or that it's a result of my strong will and determination, because it's not. It's the help of medication and ( Read more... ) -
"there's a carnival on you!"
My new favorite thing to do is take an ambien right when I get in bed and then try to not go to sleep. I don't know if it has this effect on everybody, or if these would even happen to me if I was by myself (my sister's visiting and we've been sharing my bed for the past couple weeks) but it makes me deliriously tired. My brain will shut off even ( Read more... ) -

"oh, well you're doing better than me then..." I said back, knowing that for some reason people love cheesy replies like that. Then, randomly she asks, "What else do you do? ( Read more... ) -
On School
I didn't realize this until driving to work, but today was the first day of school for all the schools around here. The first day of school. An event that I have suffered through many times in my life. I was thinking of all the kids that started highschool today, and how many of them came home today absolutely traumatized, swearing they aren't ( Read more... ) -
Adventures in the Emergency Room
I am convinced that my body knows when I have big plans coming up, and secretly tries to sabotage it. Maybe it's half my fault, or maybe it's just the way things work out and it's bad timing. My sister's visiting from Texas this week, and I requested this week off from work way in advance so we could spend the whole week doing things and taking ( Read more... )
