According to the mail order pharmacy it’s been shipped. It just hasn’t reached our mailbox yet. I’m managing at work – thankfully we’re not in one of the crazy-times, because I don’t think I could manage that. The rather more sedate pace I’ve got at the moment is challenging enough. Not helped by the shortage Read More…
Another Day Without
No meds yet. According to the mail order pharmacy, they’ve been shipped. So I’m counting the days as it were. Meanwhile, expect snark. This kind of low-grade headache + tired + fuzzy-head means my “suitable for society” filters are gone, which in turn means I will say precisely what I think without bothering to try Read More…
Day two sans wake-up meds
The constant tiredness I can live with. That’s quasi-normal for a narcoleptic anyway. It’s the way I’ve got a semi-permanent low-grade headache and feel like my head’s been stuffed with cotton wool that I hate most. It totally screws with my reaction time and perceptions So yeah, the DEA can collectively fuck itself with a Read More…

This is especially true if you are slagging the other author in order to Read More…

Learning a new art
I’m gradually getting a handle on writing non-fiction, by way of writing articles for the Ministry of Testing’s Dojo. This is a good thing, because I’m learning more about appropriate tone and not just rambling on screen as I tend to do with my blog posts. The count so far is three articles published this Read More…
Age or something
I must be getting old. Older, anyway. Lately I’m finding that I’m not able to do anything remotely useful on Saturdays because I spend the whole day in a kind of half-asleep daze. This really sucks because it leaves me with just Sunday to get anything done before the weekend is over and I’m focused Read More…
