I’ve been waiting for you. Wait, I’m being a little creepy aren’t I? I mean we just met and all and here I am heaping all these expectations on you–hoping, dreaming, believing, YEARNING for you to be THE ONE. You … Continue reading →

I have a blog and I’m not afraid to use it

Posted on January 31, 2010 by Tentative Equinox North

I turned a corner somewhere. Crossed a line. Went through a doorway. And I’m not sure it’s a good corner/line/doorway. I hate 20-somethings. I no longer keep quiet when something pisses me off. I’m scaring the 20-somethings when they do something … Continue reading →

My Excalibur, My Oil and Sauce Dispenser (No. 111)

Posted on October 11, 2009 by Tentative Equinox North

I stopped by the dollar deal shelves at the grocery store today. I was in pursuit of mandarin oranges for the semi-annual Tomorrow Salad, but first I detoured over as the stacks of plastic and cheap glass beckoned me. I’m … Continue reading →

Persona, have you met your Shadow?

Posted on October 2, 2009 by Tentative Equinox North

A man is standing beside the road. He is a middle-aged man. He has a bald spot and a circle of brown spiky hair. He is dressed in a pressed tweed jacket, pressed dress pants, shiny dress shoes–all high-end labelled … Continue reading →

Muse Sighting II

Posted on October 1, 2009 by Tentative Equinox North

Muse Sighting

Posted on September 28, 2009 by Tentative Equinox North

She pulls up behind me at the traffic light. She’s old. Her lips lined like someone permanently tasting a sour lemon, although that’s just the state of her face and doesn’t appear to be connected to her personality. She’s good-looking … Continue reading →

Prompted by a comment from Bullwinkle, who wondered if I’d followed through on my personal ad looking for an Accountability Coach, I thought I’d stop in after my long unexplained absence to give you the update.   I am happy to report that … Continue reading →

Today is the Discussion of Trinity of Brain Issues (Learning Disabilities, ADHD, and Aspergers) and the Treatment Thereof Tuesday (DTBITTT) or in short form Tuesday BITs.   Anxiety, like free-radicals, floats around my body looking for something to tether itself to. … Continue reading →
