  • the usual rant for this time of year

    Valentine's Day as it is generally celebrated in the United States in the 21st century is, I believe, the product of a vast conspiracy of florists, chocolatiers, and greeting card manufacturers, with the sole aim of maki…
  • Do you bottle up anger, or do you let it out, and how?

    When I was working in the used book shop in Chapel Hill, the owner went on a month-long tour of Asia, and in his absence one of my coworkers became a real pain in the butt. The owner had left an extremely competent and …
  • my reality check bounced

    Well, I had a thoroughly wretched day, beginning with the realization that I've apparently lost a subscriber over that last entry--I thought that one might be a little too angry for the usual tone of my blog--and ending …

  • chemical imbalance

    I am depressed.This is not a comment on how my day went. It is a diagnosis. I've been taking medication for this since December of 2004, and will probably stay on the meds for a while to come. I've been feeling a lot …
  • sleepy

    Here's something I have recently learned about myself: I am too old to stay out with friends til midnight and still function at work the next morning...or the morning after that. It was Saturday night I was up late, and…
  • me time
