Last Tuesday I finally got to see “A Man Called Otto.” Cat and I had plans two weeks ago to see it and then she died. She had read the book and from when we saw the previews in November, she was excited to see it. I had not read the book. Nevertheless, I went…

Now that I am over myself and realized, yes I did set many goals such as going to college at 29 years old, getting a second job whenever I wanted something that I could not afford on my day job, going to Italy after I was diagnosed and before I wouldn’t be physically not able…

I am slowly losing interest in writing this blog. It is not what I thought it would be. I did just pay for 3 more years, so again, hopefully I’ll get my shit together and have the concentration needed to make it what I want. Not only do I need to focus, I also need…

Aah, Christmas time….. when family gets together and enjoy each others company, (or not). To some, including myself it is just a reminder of how dysfunctional we all are. Since I’m going to go through my family members, I’ll start with myself. I am in a loveless marriage. Unfortunately my taste in men throughout the…
