Hi Darling Ones, Last night I had a sex dream for the first time since I had the stroke in March. It was weird. The sex in the dream wasn’t weird. It was frustrating and with a man I dated about 1000 years ago, and the only way I could come is after he claimed he could fix Jane, which was apparently what I had named either my dishwasher or my air conditioner. Sure, it was an unfulfilling sex dream,…
Things I Would Have Missed if I Died 8 Month Ago
Hello Darling Ones, Today marks eight months since my college friend Baltus died. Also, eight months since I had a stroke. These two events are inextricably linked in my damaged brain. My poor, defective brain that I continue to love even though it’s kind of a jerk. I still have an immense amount of guilt for worrying everyone by having a stupid stroke. Boy. would the people I love be bummed if I died. Same. I’m pretty glad I continue…

She tried to find Patches’ humans, but to no avail. Patches had already made herself at home by the time my sister realized she…
Things I Learned About Janelle
Hi Darling Ones, I had my monthly eye treatment today. The joint was hopping. I’ve been going every four weeks since June? And I’ve never seen the waiting rooms so full. It was so busy we spent like 45 minutes in Waiting Room B after my eye test and scans. There wasn’t a spare seat in the place, and there’s something like 30 seats in the room. Because we waited so long, I got learn a lot about Janelle. She…
This is Just to Say
Darling Ones, I am still kicking just busy and quiet which is good because I have negative money but working and recovering from a stroke is a lot. I listen to the new Lydia Loveless record multiple times a day. There’s a post in me about the song “Poor Boy”. Also, one about how in love I am with the Ratboys’ “The Window” the way she sings I don’t regret a single thing. You’re so beautiful. slays me. There are…
