  • Journal Entry for March 13, 2008

    Thursday, March 13, 2008

    I had two doctors’ appointments this week (Tuesday the 11th and Wednesday the 12th). 
    My doctor’s appointment on Tuesday was with a gastriologist in Toronto. I wasn't expecting to get too much out of the appointment because I have a fear of needles and she hasn't recommended any test that doesn't involve needles. We had talked about sedatives with her bu...

  • Seeing Him Does Not Sabotage Your Power
    To my knowledge, and according to accounts from the hundreds of clients I have served in rape recovery therapy, there is no single trigger more powerful than this. Of all the possible reminders and anxiety-producers you will encounter—sights, sounds, smells, anniversaries, etc.—actually seeing him is the whopper of all triggers.

While the show quit shooting years ago, it can be seen as re-runs. Recently, I saw one I really enjoyed. The character, 'Sophia', played by the late Estelle Getty, had been to the wake of a friend a...

    Thursday, January 29, 2009 | A Funny story

    There is an old Chinese curse which translates as “May you live in interesting times”. Oddly enough, we have the exact same wish in english, but it uses different words to convey the same sentiment: “May you live under the elephant's asshole”.
