Immortal Perfected Teeth
I have some small hope that I will be resurrected with a perfect frame. I really like the idea of immortal perfected teeth. I wouldn’t mind me some immortal perfected eyes neither. Is it a fairy tale? Is it something the oppressors tell the masses to keep us quiet in our suffering? Are my body’s…

TV looks fake!
I’ve been watching shows from the 80s for which I have grown nostalgic. Old grainy film. Real costumes. Stephanie is watching new TV shows. And they just look fake to me. For all the miracles of modern technology I don’t think CGI is among them. It just lacks the charm of stop motion and claymation.…

Too Much Caffeine
Stephanie drinks a lot of caffeine because it helps with her ADHD. Sometimes I am foolish enough to try to keep up. In the past 24 hours I have had too much caffeine. I am shaky. There’s not a lot I can do but wait until it is out of my system. I took a…

Jesus’s Birthday
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints was founded on April 6th, 1830. While it is not canonical, some Mormons including myself believe this happened on Jesus’s Birthday.

Pica
Eating things that aren’t food is called pica. I ate paper as a child. I swallowed string. I did some serious damage to my digestive system eating mint flavored toothpicks. Ben inherited pica from me. I saw him picking at a cardboard box and putting tiny scraps in his mouth a few days ago. Yesterday…

Just a Wednesday
This morning I got a call while my phone was in sleep mode to let me know that Alex’s day program is on hold until everyone gets the Medicaid paperwork in place. Maybe he’ll go back tomorrow maybe it will take a month. I didn’t see the voicemail or the text until after my alarm…

A Cataract Orange
I had my compressive eye exam. No glaucoma, and no macular degeneration. My left eye however has level 4 out of 4 cataracts and I am eligible for surgery. They did not change my prescription because if I do get cataract work the new prescription would be useless afterwards. The good doctor described the procedure…
