So, yes, this is the last post of this writing streak. My mother came down yesterday with presents/wishes/etc.. After showing her the rooftop party area of our building, we went to Doumar’s for ...

Winding down to the end, here. Tomorrow will be free-write, so I’ll use one of my last remaining prompts. The unused ones, including the list I can’t seem to concentrate on to write. Do you belie...

As the morning progresses, I get to spend the day dealing with the Virginia Employment Commission who’ve, for whatever reason, frozen my account with them. Probably going to have to make a trip t...

I really can’t get motivated to write one of my prompts, so today is free write. Made some progress yesterday in the employment hunt. Today’s nearly $700 after-tax payment for health insurance s...

I do have to do an extra entry, still, to get back on track. So I’m going to recycle a survey from 2012. Deleting the questions that were OD-specific. Old stuff below, then I’ll do the same ...

I’m not really feeling any of my prompts this morning. Try to re-sample something I wrote on this date in the past, and there’s not a lot. 08/15/2011 - 8/15/2011 Amazon’s “Gold Box” recommended...

Some busy things this week. Fingers-crossed that there’ll be something promising for work. I need to make a phone call after I got an odd update on Saturday about something I’d applied for back...

Yesterday was bad. A lot of the day I spent watching coverage of what was going on in Charlottesville. (How does Chrome’s inline spell-check think that I misspelled that?) It doesn’t matter, thou...

Woke up too early this morning. One of the top stories on the local news was this. That they’re pulling out shows what a failure the Patient Protection & Affordable Care Act is. One of my fr...

I meant to go look for old things to write about this morning. I slept oddly last night, and am worried about email nonsense I haven’t addressed since probably 2005. When I logged on to Facebook ...

Guilty admission, I’m starting on this the day before. I saw a story about where I used to be, and it looks like that maybe, they were looking for any excuse to shed people like me. I may have ...

Not a lot going on, just a waiting game on things. Today’s big thing is getting a Tysabri recharge, the first since I got cast aside from my position. The timing isn’t working out exactly as I w...

Because eight is great!!1! On the other hand, my CSS skills, notsomuch. Things are moving somewhat. The weather is nasty, but at least the windows didn’t leak this time. So many different path...
07
Fourteen more to write for this round. I still owe one from my two days’ late start. I keep getting sidetracked by other things when it comes to sitting down to write this entry. An acquaintanc...
06
It’s Sunday morning. I have several prompts from which I could have chosen, but I went investigating back through old writings to find something more appealing. That probably wasn’t a good idea...
05
Slept oddly after falling asleep before 2300. But up now, water, pill case filled, etc.. It’s pretty sad when a highlight involves pouring pills from the bottle, and getting exactly the number yo...
04
Writing, wondering what’s going to happen next. Things can seem to move at a snail’s pace during the summer if your livelihood is dependent upon government action. This is a tough few weeks, anyw...
03
I meant to use this one earlier, but I accidentally used the wrong one. Three things was supposed to go on the third. shrug I fuck things up from time to time. My brain is scarred or something....

Yesterday morning’s hopefulness has been replaced with worry after not hearing anything from the promising opportunity yesterday. I’m still pretty confident, though, even if that one doesn’t co...

So, new month, same issues. Very disappointed my Tysabri infusion isn’t until next week. I’m exhausted, and need a recharge. Very positive conversation yesterday about work pursuit. We’ll see w...

Phone interview this afternoon. We’ll see how it goes. The position looks eerily-similar to the one I took in the summer of 2007. If I could get back to that money with those benefits, I’d be ...
29
Yesterday was spent dealing with progress on the job search, and dealing with my rebelling body. The next Tysabri does is only eleven days away, but it feels like an eternity. It doesn’t make a ...

I started two days late, so I’ll write more. My wife is off doing something or the other, and I’m waiting on calls about my many job applications, so I’ll do a second entry for today. I don’t hav...

My wife provided me many prompts. I’ll be using some of them this summer. The remainder will wait until NoJoMo in November. Maybe by then, I’ll have figured out how to get my old content back. ...

I’m on the phone with a hospital system, trying to figure out payment stuff. The medication I’m on for MS is incredibly expensive. They pay up to my out-of-pocket maximum on my nearly $700/mo. p...

Writing in the heat. Kind of a summer NoJoMo.
