The musings of a crazy lady from Hamilton, Ohio. "Madwoman in the attic" is a reference to the book "Jane Eyre," and our world where we try to silence and "lock away" the mentally ill.

Randomly Awake
Good morning. I'm awake randomly, and there's not a lot to do around 1:30 in the morning. I texted Marty, and email Carrie.....mostly, I'm craving a Hothead quesadilla, and of course, they're closed. So I'm checking up on the news, and checking Facebook. No terribly interesting news.....moving on to Twitter. I'll probably go back to bed pretty soon. Carrie is coming over in the afternoon. On Wednesday, I have to go to CVS, and then Thursday is a big extended family dinner.....sometime, I have to figure out to what to wear to said dinner that will not upset my mother. Oy vey. Now I'm going to get my daily tarot card on Facebook, think of something clever to tweet, then drag myself to bed.......

Morning
Good morning to all. I woke up in pain from my endometriosis, so I took a magic pill, and now all is well. I'm slightly hungry, but I can't decide what to eat. Perhaps some potato chips....I guess I only blog when I'm bored, b/c all my blogs have the line "bored off my ass today...." My life isn't actually as dull as it seems. However, today is Sunday, and as we practically live in a theocracy, there isn't much going on today. I need to do dishes, and I'd like to finish the book I'm reading, as well. Right now, I'm eating the afore-mentioned chips, and going through my email. Have a good day!

Oh, shit, it's mid-month!
I haven't written in awhile, b/c I spent most of the past week in the psych ward. I feel much better now- they raised my lithium. While I was gone, my Hanna crab molted- I think we were both creaky and in need of renewal. Now, I'm in need of a good housecleaning- this place is a pigsty!

Today's Song du Jour
"Foolish Games"
by Jewel
You took your coat off and stood in the rain,
You're always crazy like that.
And I watched from my window,
Always felt I was outside looking in on you.
You're always the mysterious one with
Dark eyes and careless hair,
You were fashionably sensitive
But too cool to care.
You stood in my doorway, with nothing to say
Besides some comment on the weather.
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Well in case you failed to notice,
In case you failed to see,
This is my heart bleeding before you,
This is me down on my knees, and...
[Chorus]
These foolish games are tearing me apart,
And your thoughtless words are breaking my heart.
You're breaking my heart.
You're always brilliant in the morning,
( From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/j/jewel-lyrics/foolish-games-lyrics.html )
Smoking your cigarettes and talking over coffee.
Your philosophies on art, Baroque moved you.
You loved Mozart and you'd speak of your loved ones
As I clumsily strummed my guitar.
You'd teach me of honest things,
Things that were daring, things that were clean.
Things that knew what an honest dollar did mean.
I hid my soiled hands behind my back.
Somewhere along the line, I must've gone
Off track with you.
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Well, excuse me, guess I've mistaken you for somebody else,
Somebody who gave a damn,
Somebody more like myself.
[Chorus]
You took your coat off,
Stood in the rain,
You're always crazy like that.
I miss the life I once had, the feelings I once had.....I w2ish I could go back to the days before I was numb.

Confessions of a Bored Insomniac
Insomnia strikes again, and I'm blogging in the wee small hours. Not much to do, except mess around on the computer. I have a load of clothes in the washer, and so far, none of the usual laundry hassles....knock on wood. The people in my building become blithering idiots when the laundry room is concerned, it seems, so I try to do mine during odd hours. Yawn. Even my blog is boring. I haven't been doing much lately, since I haven't felt well. I'm back to volunteering at the Dems this afternoon, and I'm very much looking forward to GOTV this year. Go, Democrats!
