I can't get to sleep
I think about the implications
Of diving in too deep
And possibly the complications
Especially at night
I worry over situations
I know will be all right
It's just overkill
Day after day it reappears
Night after night my heartbeat shows the fear Ghosts appear and fade away
Come back another day
One coping method I learned when my life fell apart five years ago was self-care. I'd lost everything in terms of normalcy after years of job-induced stress that eventually drove me literally insane, and that's when I found myself plunked into therapy for the first time. I'll always remember my therapist suggesting concrete things to do, such as "change your clothes, try a new lipstick." External, cosmetic things like that…

"Songs are just sort of feelings put into words, a marriage of the emotional and cerebral. And that's sort of the best thing you can do—express in words what you're feeling, hopefully in a way that's not too trivial or stupid." - Asa Brebner
BOSTON. You know that fine line between funny and sad? I know that guy. Tonight I went to "The Gas" at Great Scott. That is the weekly comedy hosted by Rob Crean. Rob is possibly the saddest funny guy that I know. I'm not saying all of his material arises from a place of depression or anxiety, but I can tell you that Rob's act helped lead me from the darkness over Robin Williams' death , even if Rob doesn't know he did …
I needed some things so I went to the store. That's how I found out that there's bacon cotton candy. The package has a cartoon pig holding a thing of bacon cotton candy. So now I know that I am alive in an age where people thought of bacon cotton candy . Now you know this exists. I'm sorry.🤮
I bet it costs a ton to pay for one of these JCDecaux outdoor, or "out of home" (OOH) displays. I guess I'm wired to wonder about the ROI on this car seat safety message at the bus stop. At the bus stop. Bus. ∎
Gone, I say and walk from church,
refusing the stiff procession to the grave,
letting the dead ride alone in the hearse.
It is June. I am tired of being brave.
He think I'm amazing. He love me so much. If you have a chance to marry your best friend, I highly advise doing so.
Me 'n Joey love that one. I can't imagine why.
Does anyone else remember Dunhill cigarettes? Taking a poll. Answer in Comments. It's for a thing.
"We finished discussing Bastille Day, and the teacher moved on to Easter,
which was represented in our textbook by a black-and-white photograph
of a chocolate bell lying upon a bed of palm fronds. "And what does one do on Easter? Would anyone like to tell us?" The
Italian nanny was attempting to answer the question when the Moroccan
student interrupted, shouting, "Excuse me, but what's an Easter?"
Read all of “Jes…
All I can say right now is that it is really weird when your brain breaks. I can't sleep from dreams, what feels like all-night struggles. I can't focus for long, and my formerly rock-solid concentration...it's not there. There's more to say but I'm getting ready to go see my therapist now. I'll either write more later or not at all. ∎
History 210, one of the online Yale courses, is my fave new jam. Maybe later I'll do a piece on it, if I can. If you "take" this class with me, we can dish about it real-time. No promises. Start here: https://oyc.yale.edu/history/hist-210
This Craigslist guy is looking for a band to play a fundraiser and it is so bonkers I can't even. Where to start. What the fuck is "best to have the dad get in touch with me." What dad? Whose dad ? Mentioning a "dad" seems to indicate this guy is seeking a young (like... really young) band that also has the kind of "history" and "following" that can fill a "hall" with a "super large parkin…
So I've been having this recurring dream in which I need to be somewhere, but I can't leave. I'm never sure where exactly I am, and every time I have the dream the location is different. The locations and the specific reasons why I'm stuck differ. In one, I'm at a party in a house that feels familiar. More
specifically, there is a party happening, but I'm alone in a back room
looking for something to wear. It's dim,…
I keep seeing People post about the breaking point, as in when will these rich white assholes finally squeeze too hard, and once that happens: then what? Usually it sounds like, "If _______________ then that's it, we have to take to the streets!" What does that mean. Do what. So we all just go outside? I mean, we DO that here. I've already been to the Common with about a hundred thousand people in and around Boston, I think th…
Help! I'm almost done making Ms. Fox, but she needs shoes. I'm thinking red cowboy boots, maybe a pair of saddle shoes? Who's got baby-sized footwear no longer needed? Email me. 🦊
Or comment. Or tweet at me.
Check out this quick video of my studio drapes swaying in the wind. The WIND. My window is winterized! THIS is how freakin' windy it is in Boston today, y'all.
I'll be working the door. --------------- FROM THE PRESS RELEASE:

Huggin' Funshine: 16 Golden Greats by Larry Banilow
I don't answer messages on Saturdays from noon to 2pm. That's when Hal Sparks does the thing.
I changed my Twitter photo to the one of Halloween...likely 1979? Michael's just a baby. I think I'm wearing my first school uniform, before they changed in 5th grade. I bet mom took it right after I got home from school to find my brother so excited for Trick-or-Treating that he wore his Jaws costume all day. You could say I have no costume, or viewed another way you could say I'm dressed as the lead in " Tales of a Fourth Grad…
TRUMP:....Look, Putin...
WALLACE: Wait, but...
TRUMP: ... from everything I see, has no respect for this person.
CLINTON: Well, that's because he'd rather have a puppet as president of the United States.
TRUMP: No puppet. No puppet.
CLINTON: And it's pretty clear...
TRUMP: You're the puppet!
CLINTON: It's pretty clear you won't admit...
TRUMP: No, you're the puppet.
CLINTON: ... that the Russians have engaged in cybe…
Kenneth! gets a big exclamation point because WOW! It's been forever since we've been saying we'll get together. And we FINALLY GOT TOGETHER, so I'm super-stoked about it. When I was in my 30s, an email landed in my inbox with the subject, if memory serves, reading "Blast from the Past...?" The sender's name certainly proved that: here was an email from someone I hadn't seen since we were kids. Kenneth had foun…
