An assortment of things in my head right now…
I am enjoying the new/old chair with the fancy upholstered seat my friend L. re-cycled to me after getting a new dining set. It’s just the right height and depth for sitting at the table with my legs up on the chair across from me, while [...]
Depakote? Trileptal? If you’ve had an experience you’re willing to share, I’d appreciate any info you’d be willing to give, either in comments or at bipolarlawyercook @ gmail.com.
Thanks. I swear I’m just going to get certified in Traditional Chinese Medicine and be done with it. (Don’t laugh. I actually find massage and acupuncture healing. TCM’s [...]
I swear, I post about all the side effects mostly so that it pops up in layperson’s terms when someone’s having weird side effects to particular medications. Which is my way of justifying that I am also whining a little. OK, a lot, but I think I am justified, since I am turning into the [...]

Yesterday morning on my way in to work…
Oh my God, WHY is it taking so long for this line to get to the front? All I want is a dozen doughnuts! I swear they’re conspiring against me. This always happens! I hate this, I am never shopping here again, I should totally leave. But I [...]
Ok, I’ll be damned if I can figure out how to tweet someone. If I am in the direct message screen on the web interface and want to tweet someone, would you PLEASE for the LOVE OF GOD tell me how to do it? I get a no such user message when I put the @twittername [...]

It wasn’t my thyroid. It was interstitial nephritis, an allergic kidney inflammation. Lucky, ducky, cold-turkey off my lithium me. But, it pays to pay attention to your body, too– goodness knows I’m not interested in spending a few days in the hospital on dialysis. And I get to try abilify to [...]
Dick Cavett wrote a scathing indictment of the “speeches” given by Ambassador Crockett and the very model of a Modern Made-Up General, General Petraeus, appearing in the NYT opinion pages today. The piece is a model of what Satire should be– I can think maybe only John Stewart and Steve Martin could come close [...]

“That telltale lump in the throat” is up at RealMental.
Why? It makes the meat soggy. It ruins the texture and tone of a properly-raised, wicked expensive piece of swine or fowl. Screw f*ing Cook’s Illustrated and all the gastroporn publishing industry.
“But BLC! (Damn, what did she say her name was again?) How else will we ensure that our flesh of the animals will be [...]

(Sleeping.)
RING! RING! The phone rings like the Last Trumpet’s Sounding, causing me to nearly hit the ceiling, I jumped so high.
BLC: Aghh! (Gets out of bed, runs to phone.) Hello? (In sexy, groggy, froggy voice.)
Brother of BH: Hello, Miss BLC! How are you today?
BLC: Oh … hi … Brother-in-law.
BroBH: Did I wake you? I’m sorry! [...]
