Evening, all!

I may have some good news in a way. After my absolutely insane roommate wheeled my fiancee ( who is blind and brain damaged from a gunshot during a mugging) away and as far as I can tell made him sign her over as his power of attorney and did not allow him to contact me I decided to get on with a life of my own. I am…

Is anybody else sick of being asked what wonderful, special plans they have for the holidays? My partner and I live alone, and both of our families are in other states. He doesn’t talk to his family at all. My family is across the country and is mostly toxic, so I do not see them for holidays. We don’t have friends…

Yoga helps me. 

Well me & my brand new right knee are home and I now have an annoyed cat on my chest. Man did I have some weird dreams in the hospital! Think due to the anesthesia & opiates! Thanks to everyone for the support, so far everything seems to be going ok! (The oxycontin is definitely helping, I won’t lie...)

I have written about how my fiancee was wheeled away by my ex-roommate who basically took power of attorney and will not let me see him. I at least am getting over it since I really can’t do anything without a very expensive lawsuit or getting arrested. The one thing that is bothering me now is that I am adopted and…

Experienced the Alaska earthquake 30 miles from the epicenter- with all the accompanying aftershocks- not cool

OMG I had a dream just this week that I got to meet and hang out with Michelle Obama. You are living my dream! Here, have some insane jealousy. It's on the house.

YOU GUYS. I’m working a late night event tonight but my executive director just told me Michelle Obama might be visiting us!!! She’s in town for a book reading(?) which I couldn’t get tickets to, as I was working. Fingers crossed!

I’ve missed SNS for months so I’m glad to finally be around for an open thread. I posted in SNS this time last year about how someone had asked me out and I was super nervous about it due to my lack of romantic experience and general awkwardness. Anyway, we didn’t end up actually dating because he behaved like a ninny,…

The incredible, unspeakable, white-hot rage I’ve felt over the past week has convinced me I should go back to therapy.  I’ve been reliving shit I haven’t thought about in over a decade.  I’m betting therapists and counselors are seeing a lot of that.

I watched “Won’t You Be My Neighbour?” this afternoon. Some thoughts:

Who’s! In! Therapy!!!!!

I work at a university and I went into one of the engineering buildings on campus and someone put a ton of snacks and goodies on a table with a note that said: This week has been tough, due to the Kavanaugh hearings. Take care of yourself and have a treat!

I am in favor of a daily open thread, can this please be enacted?

You too, Jez staff!

As long as you have to battle monsters, use every tool at your disposal.  I’m sorry they do that to you. Been there, barely survived it.

I live in a very kitty-tastic neighborhood. My neighbor kitty, Gizmo, is one of the best. He’s a polydactyl, and apparently a klepto. My neighbor lady knocked on my door the other night with a handful of my garden gloves. Apparently Gizmo likes to bring home presents for his mom, and those presents include two of my…

I have been desperately refreshing jez waiting for SNS so I can keep procrastinating cleaning my house. It’s been in disarray since last Sunday when we had a birthday party for my son. Like... Can’t see the floor disarray. But on the bright side, people actually came to his birthday this time! Not a lot but more than…
