Inactive or Feral
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints would consider me an inactive member when it considered me at all. But “inactive” is boring and weak. I don’t want to be as lame as that sounds. I have begun to refer to myself as a feral Mormon. That sounds weird and a little dangerous.…

Sleeping Sounds Good
I need to take my pills and wait half an hour to eat but I don’t think I’m going to be able to stay awake until my usual bedtime. It’s been a hell of a week.

Sleeping Wrong
I slept in and Stephanie ended up in the ER tonight. I try not to feel guilty but this one hits hard.

A little loopy
I have been staying up late and sleeping in for the past week. But I couldn’t stay in bed this morning, so lack of sleep has left me a little loopy. Staring at my phone so much has completely ruined my circadian rhythm. I’m gaining weight and that adds a tiny bit of shortness of…

Christ was despised and rejected and acquainted with grief. I do not want to be. That is all.

Those Gaps
Stephanie and I have a friend who is really into Star Wars. He is convinced that everything in it is possible once we have the science for it. I call this the science of the gaps. Atheists complain about attributing the things I don’t understand to the gods. They are right to a point but…

Three Beers In
Stephanie let me sleep this morning. Ben didn’t but she let me go back to bed after he was done with me. Diaper and soda first thing in the morning. What a life. But today has mostly been mobile games in between the job of taking care of my adult disabled autistic children. The struggle…

Mobile Lies
Today has been a better day. I went to my counselor for the first time in months which got me out of the house. I should get out more but I prefer to be home in my pajamas whenever I can help it. I’ve mostly been playing Bud Farm on my phone today otherwise. It…
