hearing voices
I've been hearing voices in my head for decades. They ONLY come when I am playing computer games. I never get them otherwise. They are NOT thoughts, and are often in an accent not my own. The...
mermaids
Last night I watched a show on the Discovery Channel about mermaids. It was a follow up to a show they aired a couple of years ago. WHY??? I am sure they put a lot of effort and money into thi...

Taking care of myself (some TMI)
In short... I don't. Or at least, not well. I should, now that I am not working and have few responsibilities, be pampering myself. I have NO schedule.. I can do what I want, when I want. All ...

Next to the Hudson (North) River
Both planes and helicopters use the river as a landmark. They travel north along the route the river takes. Often they are news helicopters checking out the traffic on the highway or the GW Brid...
bad night's sleep
My sleep pattern is all over the map. Well, what is always the same is I prefer to wake up VERY early. If it's past 7 a.m., that's because I was awake for a few hours in the night and went BACK...
