Thought For The Day:

Build a man a fire and he'll be warm for one night.

Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.

can't think of a title...

damn, i deliberately decide to blog and now i can't think of anything...lalalalala

Partial - Day Nine...

wrapped up Week #2 of life in the Partial Looney Bin today! i tell ya, my fellow Looneys give me lots of things to think about, as do the therapists on staff...

Partial - Day Eight...

you know, it's really weird - it's not even been two weeks in therapy and i feel this closeness, this connection with some of the people there. no, not a "leave and start hanging out with these people" sort of thing, but a sense of respectful friendship.

yeah, i guess six hours a day 5 days a week (except Memorial day made it 4 days this week) is pretty intense, but i haven't seen all of them all the time, some are only half-day people, some haven't shown up for a day or two...

it's just strange to have met these people on May 24, and here on June 3 i've felt more human, more like other people, less alone because of the various ways i've connected and related with them.

i figured i'd be the total freak, the token queer - yet in my talking about various issues, even people that don't know where i'm coming from can chime in with some very helpful ideas, new ways of thinking.

it's cool, and while i know i've still got a long way to go, i think this will prove to be a very helpful program...

two steps forward, one step back...

that's what scott said therapy would be like at times, and that's how it seems now - a big light bulb goes on over my head about something and then a short time afterwards someone saying a single thing to me sets off the tears...some progress made, lots more to go...

they need to get that Magic Pill invented, dammit. you know, the one that cures everything...

Memorial Day 2004...

well, i suppose i shouldn't be so bummed about not going to Lexington - we had some horrible weather yesterday and it woulda really sucked to be out driving in it. so instead i went over to kat's and hung out, knowing she's not real fond of storms. luckily she slept through the worst of it.

hopefully mom'll get a hold of the pool people this week and we can get that baby up and running ASAP!

ARGHHHHHHHHH!

men suck!

cuz of clara's husband, we're not meeting up in lexington this weekend - road trip cancelled!!! *8-( *8-(
