Things that are Awesome

My little brother is living with us for the summer. I say little, but he's actually about a foot and a half taller than me. I feel even shorter these days, living with two giant men instead of one.

When we were reorganizing the extra bedroom for his arrival, I found two boxes of books that I hadn't opened since we moved in, which means that I haven't read any of them in at least 18 months. Score!

Our nephew G just turned ten, and last weekend he announced his intention to join the Boy Scouts. He wants to do things like shoot clay pigeons and use a pocketknife. AJ was talking to him about various Boy Scout activities, and G said that the real reason he wants to join is so he can kill a bear with a knife. Apparently that's a badge or something, but I bet it's usually awarded posthumously.

Something not so awesome: There's a wasp nest on the roof of our building right next to our balcony. I am not pleased. I also can't figure out where the nest actually is to spray it. I want to punch them all in the face.

Hello Zoloft My Old Friend

I've been going through some stuff over the past couple of months. I went through an outpatient program again and have been trying some new medications, several of which gave me bizarre and scary side effects. I'm happy to report that I'm currently on Zoloft again, and my mood seems to be stabilizing. I'm going to try to post more often.
