    It’s Saturday night, I’m a little stoned and have a glass of wine beside me.

    Do not adjust your sets. The interference is temporary.

  • It’s 10 years ago.

    It’s 5 years ago.

    It’s today.

    I seriously doubt I’ll sleep much tonight.

    Hey little girl is your daddy home
    Did he go away and leave you all alone
    I got a bad desire
    I’m on fire
    Tell me now baby is he good to you
    Can he do to you the things that I do
    I can take you higher
    I’m on fire
    Sometimes it’s like someone took a knife baby
    Edgy and dull and cut a six-inch valley
    Through the middle of my soul
    At night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet
    And a freight train running through the
    Middle of my head
    Only you can cool my desire
    I’m on fire
  • So I’ve entered a new phase. The panic has subsided and the anxiety lessened, both giving way to…

    … nothing.

    I feel numb.

    And that would really scare me, if I felt anything.

    Sunovabitch.

    Honestly, there were times I doubted it; or at least seeing the New Year in outside of Ward H.

    (Language ahoy; if you’re easily put off by a potty mouth, I’ll understand if you don’t want to read.)

  • Alright, almost 19 hours into my 48 hour window to the soul. And where do I stand?

    On shaky ground.

    I’ve had a great support system today; my friend Laura came over during the day, and Scott and Steph in the evening. I gave Laura my extra stash of sleeping pills to hold onto.

    But now I’m alone and in my pajamas and I took my meds for the night. And it’s just me and my brain.

    Should be interesting.

  • 5:30 am and still looking for sleep.

  • It’s 2am. Still wired. I’ve taken my nightly assortment of meds, including the sleeping pill, because let’s face it, I can’t get to sleep without it. And no, I didn’t overdo it. Just the prescribed amount.

    Yes, I have a plan.
