I feel normal again! It’s a miracle! I can mostly breathe throughout the night, I’m sleeping again, I don’t ache or feel like shit all over, and I actually want to get off my ass and do stuff now. The only thing wrong with me is that the oral decongestants I’m on are making my [...]

You remember those green horse pills I was telling you about? Well, the nasal specialist I saw today told me to throw them, all $75 worth of them, in the garbage along with everything else my family doctor gave for my nose. To replace it, he gave me more pills and sprays than I’ve ever [...]

I’m just doing a little math homework here… looks like surface integrals tonight… and mostly just taking ‘er easy. I’m looking forward to the two shows I’m seeing this week (Muse [...]

Have you ever had an unexpected dream about meeting someone you knew of, had seen often, but never spoke to? If so, did they also lucidly say to you in your dream, complete with nervous laughter & concern: “Hey, how are you? I, uhh, can’t believe we haven’t met yet.” Were they really there? It [...]
