This deranged yet amusing little blog is about my life as a bi-polar and clinically depressed woman with no viable skill sets and a dark sense of the absurd.
I do not sleep so I write.
My love, experiences and education are in music. Making a living in this field occupation is virtually impossible but I still play and sing most days.
Before my illness became so extreme I played music professionally (on in my case unprofessionally -rim shot-) and owned a successful retail business and associated e-commerce site. So yeah, I also spend time screwing around with code and Photoshop.
Geek much?
I’m on SSD for my illness and constantly battle thoughts of suicide, depression, lunatic shrinks and how to keep the lights on given my poverty level. The meds keep changing but the song remains the same.
Think of the fun we’ll have dissecting life’s attempt to toss meaning, learning, love, sex and sponsored commercial breaks into the roiling river of day-to-day existence.
Take my hand and turn down the lights…

by chance, I saw a link to here this evening…well early morning. It hadn’t shown up before because I had switched/ messed around with our domain a few months ago; and had just put everything back to it’s original as of yesterday. I guess the stats page finally caught up. (and I finally remembered I had done the switch to begin with…duh=me)
Anyway, I’m glad I found your blog.
Hope you write more soon. You write well and I enjoyed reading.
I guess that is putting it mildly. I used to be an avid reader *understatement* and not
a lot holds my attention anymore, this did.
