The Price Of Freedom

November 3, 2014

November 1st, 2014 is a great day.  Because I’ve gone two months without a panic attack.  That’s the longest I’ve gone without a panic attack in over two years.  So, it’s kind of a big deal to me. Panic attacks, and sudden anxiety have been plaguing me since the first grade.  It comes and goes

13 Scary Movies That Made Me Lose Sleep

October 26, 2014

13. Poltergeist While I now think Poltergeist is fun horror movie, I first saw it at a very young age.  I was a fan of the horror genre as a kid, and I saw Poltergeist in elementary school, and that movie scared the shit out of me (particularly the clown).  This is a favorite of

Ebola For You

October 21, 2014

Like a normal teenager, I spent many nights reading about about diseases on the internet.  I was (still am) obsessed with diseases.  And as far as viruses go, Ebola is king.  An Ebola outbreak in the U.S. became my biggest fear in high school, after I read the novel, “The Hot Zone,” which I highly

I can feel the eyes looking at my face.  When my gaze meets theirs, I can see the fear and worry in their eyes.  They are wondering if someone hit me.  They are wondering if I have an abusive boyfriend.  I would think the same, if I saw a woman with a shiner on her

Don’t Kill Your Heroes

October 5, 2014

The time I was most star struck in my entire life was by someone most would never recognize:  David Sedaris. David Sedaris is an author, one of my favorite writers, and an inspiration to me.  His writing is hilarious, real, and cynical yet warm.  In a way, my love for his work had more of

Hopeless Romantic

September 29, 2014

A blog about love?  Oh boy… here we go…   I’ve just attended another cousins wedding, and I’m happy to witness yet another two terrific people who make a great couple.   For those who know me, they know my stark views against marriage.  This is a bit odd, as I behave like a child

How To Be Happy

September 25, 2014

The title of this blog should probably have a question mark at the end of it.  I have more knowledge about how one could survive the zombie apocalypse than happiness.  I think, though, there was a time in my life where happiness was the dominant emotion, rather than plagued by pending mental break downs, and

Crazy Aunt Lori

September 17, 2014

My parents are both one of six (my grandmother the youngest of 20!).  I have a large family, lots of aunts, uncles, and cousins. I’m fortunate enough to be close with most of them.  They’re crazy, yes.  But they’re my family.  There’s something among kin, that even when you’re completely mad, the level of understanding

I Love NY?

September 9, 2014

The end of the summer always makes me a little blue, swirled with anxiety about returning to school,  even though I haven’t returned to school in a few years, I’m still conditioned to get stressed out come September. Alas, the summer’s end is eased by the beauty of the changing leaves, the lack of sweating
