Not a lot new to post about. The weather is real nice, I'm enjoying the bikes. Everyone around me is complaining of especially bad allergies this spring, mine are non-existent and I usually get them really really bad. I'm attributing the welcome surprise to this being the first spring where I haven't smoked at all for at least a year. Not sure if that's the... Read More
First track day (aside from the spencer school) was FUN!! I'm not real social by my nature, but I ended up meeting some great friendly folks and just having a top notch time. I was a little worried about the Honda since I only drove it a few miles to check it out when I bought it and another putt around the block after I... Read More
It's "Creepy Record Guy"
Like Steve Buscemi in Ghost world and well, me.
I got some new shelves for an awesome deal. Here's the old ones, they were those wire shelves you'd find in a restaruant freezer, only I had to cut a bunch of MDF for the shelves, sides... Read More
Simplify it, don't worry about "real" names vs. noms de plume. Booker T under "B", Howlin' Wolf under "H", Collins Kids under "C", Frank Zappa under "F", The Mummies under "M", Blind Lemon Jefferson under "B", etc.
I've just now gotten internet back after a couple days without. Huge storm came through and fucked with the satellite dish for the modem, apparently the LNB was full of water, but has had time to dry out. Good thing, too, as the first time a tech could come look at it would be a week from now and would cost $125!!
Columbus is just generally a nicer city than Cleveland, i personally like the city better. That and a lot of friends. that and i am not in Cleveland. that's what makes it best, there is just a lot of drama up here that i don't like.
The head is doing better than last entry, and the improvement is very welcome. Saw the doc, switched up some medication, etc... Track day coming up on march 22, hurray! Right now work seems set to go from "what tasks can I give the guys that are at least a little productive so they can have a paycheck" (and how can I pay my own... Read More
My head has been giving me problems for a while. I hate to complain, because I really have nothing I should be complaining about, but from my skewed perspective it seems like everything is wrong in my life. I think some degree is to do with stopping taking some medication - lexapro, an ssri for depression/anxiety. I'm taking it again & it seemed to help... Read More
Wellbutrin has certainly helped me! It was a little rough getting used to at first, but it's had a cumulative effect I believe. I still get that sense of impending doom once in a while, but it's not overwhelming like it was.
As usual, my advice to you is to go for a nice long ride (weather permitting).
OR
Spend some time with your guitar.
AND
Pursue some lively young lady. You might want to study Mark's style, he's about our age and has had some decent results...
Seriously: next time you're going to be in my backward neck of the woods, let me know in advance!
Klonopin is not really something you have to worry about.
I suppose it's potentially abusable, but if you need it it CERTAINLY does NOT get you high.
It puts you to sleep quickly the first couple of days or weeks you take it, but to continue that effect you'd have to take more and more, which is where the abuse could come in.
I take it before bed time, and in fact if I have an especially bad day I can just take more which doesn't do anything except make the panic die down.
I don't feel like I'm taking ANYTHING - either the Klonopin or the Celexa.
No side effects.
That's why I continue to take that combo - no side effects and 98% of my symptoms gone.
Alright, enough whining from me. If it all goes to shit and I end up living on the streets at least I'll be able to get some reading done. And the climate is great here!
I rode the street RZ around all weekend, it has no gauges at all right now, and due to non-functional powervalves the power band is very touchy and severe. I... Read More
