Well, back on my feet again. These cycles up and down do suck, but at least I can enjoy the good times while they last. Here's too hoping for a nice and long good time. I look back on what happened two days ago. The memory radiates emotion, bright and hot. That type of emotion is what often...

As promised, another update, just a little later than I had planned. I've been working as a doctor for nearly two months now, and I love my job. I honestly couldn't imagine anything more fulfilling, at the end of the day. But it is draining as hell. Ask any honest doctor about their first few...

You don’t know your life is filled up with elephants, but it is, believe me. Pay attention today, and see how many elephants you can find. I had this epiphany when my daughter was an elephant-obsessed-two-year old. She thought that elephants were called ‘circles’ because I once told her ‘that’s...

There are a few traits/practices I have which I would like to reverse, for my own benefit (especially at work, since that's when I have to deal with people the most). I feel the level of urgency would be decreasing in these list items from #1 to 5, but I think the degree of challenge/difficulty...

I was about to sit down to write in the dining room table, when I realized: 'this is absurd; I recently bought a beautiful desk and a very comfortable desk in order to write. Why do I feel more comfortable here? This can't be'. I moved almost all the furniture in my living room and dining room...

Once upon a time a few days ago, I decided I'd bring some cookies to work and give them away. I thought it would be a nice thing to do, but moreover I thought it would be a cheap way to buy some stock with people and to meet people I haven't met before. After all, free cookies: what could...

It's that time of year again, and I had hoped to have something heartwarming, insightful and completely out of character for a logic loving, systematic, no-nonsense Aspie, to share with you all. My Christmas tree is still up, so I've thrown in some Dickens, and have sprinkled it with a...

I suppose seven days is enough time to tell if one has made a terrible decision in leaving one job and starting another, wouldn't you agree? Time enough to feel the familiar lick of flame as you realise you have inadvertently left the frying pan for the fire, or to realise that the grass, did...

I was reading an excerpt from a zoological textbook the other day about the reactions of different types of amoeba to stimulus. (Yes - this is the sort of thing you will find in my web surfing history. Shut up.) It seems that amoeba, generally, rarely move because of a positive stimulus...

I gave Karma a prod in my last post and bemoaned the consequences, but it turns out my little stash of validity has been looking after itself very well thank you, while my confidence has taken a dive. Not long after sending my email withdrawing from the application process, I received an email...

What an odd title I have chosen for this post... (Regardless of my being a huge Radiohead fan.) And yet I can think of nothing better to encompass the feelings I have at recent events. Perhaps this is the first sign of my sense of my newfound validity starting to fracture... (I wouldn't be...

As I sit here, towards the end of a busy, full day of cover at my local secondary school, wondering how long the Epi Pen training will take and if my son will make a big fuss about his guitar practice tonight, I realise that things have found their way back to a kind of normality. I have missed...

Things have apparently been going too well. My blissful transition from anxiety-wracked nerdy under-achiever to contented, thankful, hopeful individual has been rudely sidetracked by something known as Chronic Migraine. This insidious and little understood condition is extremely distressing...

"Gritches has Lots of Mommies" Sounds like a children's book about polygamy. But srsly, let me begin by making clear that I am not complaining. At all. In fact, I've been meaning to write this for a while but I couldn't figure out how to do so without it sounding like I'm bragging, not that...

Well going to a funeral today so not to many photos will be taken from what I know its not appropriate to take a camera to a funeral but to a wedding many cameras are allowed. From what my parents where talking about last night it seems there are a lot of social rules when it comes to funerals...
