For the past year or two my neurosis have evolved to my needed to fast the day before I go out, least my nerves wreck havoc on my full stomach and bowels when I'm away from the safety of my own home. At noon today I ( Read more... )

► It's only Monday and yet I'm already jittery and anxious about Friday. With my first therapy appointment in 5 weeks, and the anticipation and worrying about my new TV arriving at the Sears that day and worrying that it'll be okay, I just seem to be... well, worried a lot. I think I just thought things would be a lot smoother and I'd be on ( Read more... )

► There was a bit of a surprise waiting for us when Dad drove me back to the apartment after shopping.

► Man... still feeling queasy and nauseous. Nervous probably aren't helping. I probably just need a really good belch.

Stomach aside, I'm determined to go out on Friday for my planned weekly outing. I need to get back on track.

► Nagging stomach issues aside, this has been a fairly good week. In the mail on Monday I received my Ramona ( Read more... )

► The following is probably rambling and slightly incoherent. I apologize.

Yesterday I had a conversation with a friend regarding DC Comics' impending line wide reboot/relaunch in September and the general state of the comic book industry. Over the course of the discussion I made several points regarding both, which I think are valid, only to ( Read more... )

► What a miserable day. The weather network says the temperature outside is 20 degrees (68 Fahrenheit) but that doesn't help inside the apartment, which feels like a sweat box. I really don't like summer ( Read more... )
