MisGuided and MalAdjusted

So much for consistency. It's progress, not perfection. I found myself writing away in my cute, little pink journal, and four pages in I realized that it belonged on my blog. The time between blog posts this time was actually due to positive reasons instead of me just losing my mind and soul in the world of addiction. I am afraid to look at the date of my last post, but I am assuming that it was late February or early March....

One benefit of working overnight is the drive to work. There is something peaceful and beautiful about rolling down my car windows and listening to good music. Enjoying the fact that I am still alive. On my way to work on this gorgeous evening, my Apple Music threw me a curveball. It played a song that put me in a very introspective mood....

The two thousandth and twenty fourth year of our lord, for me personally, was quite a humdinger of a year. When I reflect back on this day, exactly one year ago, the odds in Vegas on me surviving to see today, they were not in my favor. If I would have had money on that day, even I wouldn’t have placed a bet on my own survival....

This is a blog post that I honestly didn’t think I would live to write. Anyone that has opened any one of my blog posts will be aware that I struggle with demons. For years I allowed my demons to get the best of me. The last three years were especially brutal in this long battle. I allowed my life to be run by my emotions but at the same time I tried my best to bury those same emotions by self medicating....

Lately I have become very good friends with insomnia. When it used to be drug induced insomnia, I never really had a problem with it. In fact its what I signed up for. This insomnia that is from a chemical imbalance from trying to get my head on straight, it sucks. There is nothing pumping through my veins that is giving me that sense of well being....

For better or for worse, my blog is back. Be prepared to be blindsided by stupid.

A rare peek behind the curtain of crazy. Travel with me as we explore the thoughts that are probably best left unthought.

I finally have awoken the big dumb beast. But I can’t remember how to post the link to my blog. It’s been that long. Please hold. Technical difficulties mixed with mental deficiencies…….

Life, God, the Universe, they all work in such a beautiful and unpredictable way. I often find myself lying awake at night contemplating my place in the Universe. The old how did I get here? Why? Does it even matter? For my simple mind, thoughts of this magnitude that I may never know the answer to can often lead to full on bouts of depression when I allow myself to feel inconsequential in the grand scheme of, well, everything I guess....

Twenty one months ago, give or take, I told my blog that I had to go out and grab some milk. With a single tear in my eye, I walked out of the front door, filled with guilt and shame. I didn’t want to leave it behind but it deserved a better author than I was able to be at the time....

When I was really young and naive, at the age when we really believe in our ability to be anything that we want, my heart was always drawn to the stars. My daydreams were filled with interstellar travel, and being at the forefront of humanities attempt at reaching the stars. Sadly, I was introduced to professional wrestling and I no longer dreamt of wearing a NASA spacesuit....

As much as I have tried, I can’t wrap my head around how much time has passed between blog posts. So much for consistency. Well, I am consistently inconsistent. Life has this very sneaky way of making you blink, and months, sometimes years have flown by. This time I fell victim to time in a much more positive way. For a while there, I was pretty much dead, just my brain and body hadn’t received the memo....

Today was a day that I should have seen coming from a mile away, and mentally prepared myself for it much better than I did. I had to accept that following the dissolution of my relationship with the mother of my children, that there would be certain days throughout the year that were going to cause more inner strife than the rest....
