I ahve no idea what I just read- maybe I am finally loosing it-

there is no way i'm cool enough for one of those 
I'm really starting to feel great!
I know that that sounds strange but I had only been divorced since June, separated nearly a year, overwhelmed by my ex's numerous lovers, my paralysis, and her anger. In all honesty this was a fucking hard year at first but I kept my chin up as crazy as it seemed at the time to do it.
Now I'm...

Hoping all is well with you today.
I lost my cell phone today...
but worse I got semi-diagnosed with BPPV.
I say semi-diagnosed because my doc thinks I corrected it myself. She tried to induce it but nothing happened.
Basically you have these pez shaped things floating in goo in you ear mechanics and when one accidentally escapes it can bounce around like a pinball in the wrong part of the...

That sounds terrible. Hope it does not happen again! 
trixel:
that's craziness. my dad used to have inner ear issues, tunnel vision etc. it was incredibly unpleasant, but then, I guess you know all about that. *hug*
Gonna start chewing nicotene gum today.
Good luck to me.

re: academics and outsiders. academics are really about outside knowledge, so that would not be the problem. what would be an issue i think is actually studying acadmiecs. an academic studying academics would be bad - b/c you would prolly draw some unpleasant conclusions and report some nasty stories. it just wouldn't go over well - and you couldn't escape it. it would follow you, and you'd never get tenure maybe. it would be a big gamble
as for what you should do ... it sounds like you're in a tight spot. i dunno. i mean, is there anyway to do both? could you work, and go to school part time? would that be something you would be interested in?

NaNoWriMo update..
Garbage man stuff... I created a synopsis that I am pleased with. Of course that is easy to do because the balance is still in the imagination. Will I then destroy the imaginability? Anyway my second attempt at an opening attempts to have a hook based on ideas, rather than compelling action. I'm not sure if that is a great idea but it...

That's true but so does smoking which a ton of people do to excess with no concern for it. I would happly take a small dip in immune response for a day if it meant locking in a desired memory for future recall....
Wow...that's one memory I'd like to forget however....good story-telling however...

Okay...I saw the link in a comment made by Sorcha, whose name I am waiting to steal (I check it every day). Then in the writing group.
I got looked down the precipice and decided I would take the plunge..
I'm doing the NaNoWriMo writing marathon. The goal is to produce 50,000 words by midnight November 30th. Ideally something well written. Technically it must...

Yesterday, I saw a man flatline 5 feet in front of me, on the Metra home, while a personal trainer, and a civie performed CPR on him.
He collapsed, his heart stopped beating, he was turning purple, and he stopped breathing. They got a pulse back several times and lost him several times. Finally the CFD showed up and zapped him.
I couldn't move because...

i had the very unfortunate experience of watching someone die. it is both the most real and most surreal moment of my life. it was a random car accident in front of the building i was living in, no rhyme or reason to it. what i saw gave me a bit of a different filter to look at life through. i very much agree with what lady_sappho said.

Good question. But would being a Republican be an absolute contraindication to being your friend? I'm sure there are some cool Repubs out there...
