Greetings from down the rabbit hole!

Hey there. Remember me? I thought I'd just put up a real quick post as I've been quiet for even longer than usual. I wanted to let everyone know that: I haven't been consumed by the millepede horde I haven't crashed so hard that I can't even type I haven't (as many have predicted would...

The only thing worse…

The only thing worse than spotting a wasp on the inside window of your car is when you look again and don't see it any more. 🐝👀😬 Actually the wasp and I both arrived at my destination safely, and I released it to go do whatever wasps do. I wonder if it was confused to...

Invasion of the Millipedes!

I haven't been posting Millipede Monday for a while because millipedes have kind of stopped being amusing. This spring they have invaded by the thousands and it's really annoying. I believe they are the species known as the garden or hothouse millipede (Oxidus gracilis) and we always get a few once spring comes, but this...

Torrent

The other day sucked. To explain, I need to backtrack a bit. A few years back, my therapist referred me to a psychiatrist to look into getting something prescribed to help with my insomnia/fragmented sleep. He had some ideas of what to try, based on what had worked for a couple of other Aspie clients,...

That distant dot on the horizon is my comfort zone

This post will make a lot more sense if you go back and read the previous one, first... Reeling from such a sudden and traumatic loss, I quickly realized that I was not able to function at all unless I crammed the experience deep down below my consciousness. The problem with that was that, like...

Wall of sadness

Note: I wrote this over a week ago but couldn't quite bring myself to post it at the time. I sort of retreated into myself for a while. I'm better now. It started like a normal day at work. I sifted through my work tickets, trying to prioritize them to see which ones needed to...

Turbulence

I had a dream a few nights ago that my partner and I were walking through a residential neighborhood. It had the same sort of feel as the nicer side of the city where we first met and used to drive around to look at all of the beautiful old houses, but it didn't match...

Ouch^2

(By the way, this is not the dream post that I tried to start a few days ago. That one is still marinating in my drafts folder.) So after several false starts, spring has finally sprung in my neck of the woods! Everything is growing, blooming, bursting with life (and pollen 😮) and it's so...

No words, have a spider instead

There's been a lot going on lately, and I've started at least a half dozen blog entries in my head, only to have them never make it to the keyboard. Lots going on tends to equate to 'less spoons than usual' in my world. Last night I had a really interesting dream, and I even...
