Welcome!

Aha. So it seems you’ve found me. Not that I was hiding or anything; I mean, that would be easy enough on the web, right? I mean it’s far easier to not put up a website, after all. But anyway, here you are.

You may be wondering what there is to do now that you are here. Well, there are several things. There are movie reviews, book reviews, and television reviews, to start with. There are recipes. There are games. There are articles and essays about all sorts of things, from silly stuff to politics to rants about any topic. There are stories and poems. There is art. There is a huge picture gallery. There is a webcam (though it isn’t on very often because I haven’t gotten it to work totally right under Windows Vista) and a personal journal. You can also read my dream journal if you like, though it gets pretty weird in there. There is a forum full of the friendliest people you’ll find on the internet, ready to welcome you to our community. There’s lots more, but that’s a start at least.

All that stuff can be found either from the buttons at the top or the links down the left side of the page in that paper scroll looking thingie. (Do notice that depending on where you are—for example, the gallery pages or my journal—the links on the left may offer additional options.) Poke around, try not to get lost, have fun, tell your friends. Oh, and pack a lunch.

Thought of the moment:

I’m not sure why my credit score went up by 70 points since last month, but I’m not complaining!

Movie Review: Avatar (2009)

Google Voice

I really like Google Voice. I still have the cell phone number that I had when I lived in Georgia (I kept it through Ohio and now Massachusetts) and Google Voice lets me have a local number that forwards to my cell. This is useful for times when someone needs to call me from a land line and either doesn't have or has to pay for long distance. The Google Voice number makes the person...

Medication issues

So since I've been taking 1/3 my previous dose of Wellbutrin and the 5mg Abilify I've been extremely irritable. You know the feeling when you're extremely frustrated where you feel like you're about to totally snap or burst into tears? That's sort of my "neutral" right now. I feel like that all the time. So when anything at all happens, it's pushing me over the edge.

I called my doctor today to talk...

Medication Shuffle

So my new psychiatrist has been playing with my meds since around the holidays. The memory issues with the Wellbutrin that I've been putting up with for the last 9 years are finally getting to the point where I can't deal with them anymore, so we're trying to phase me off of that and find something new. At the same time we're also trying to find a way to get me to sleep at night....

New Apartment dream

I had a dream that we moved into an apartment. It was a really fancy apartment and we couldn't believe that we could afford it. Normally I dream about houses, and normally I dislike apartments, so I'm not quite sure why I was so excited in this dream. We kept finding other cool things after moving in. Some of the walls slid up into vaulted ceiling space to create bigger open areas. We realized there...
