This isn't so much of a question as it is some good info that I am not sure if you have yet. Recently my insurance started denying my coverage for my ADHD medication and Johnson and Johnson Patient Assistance provided me quick and easy coverage to help me out. Might be worth sharing with people if you haven't already

Halloween

Ended up a lot different than I imagined, but, ultimately in a good way.

Pecan literature.

"I find your blog's erratic stylization....difficult"

Or so I have been told.  What do you think?  Is my stylization obnoxious and alienating?

Hey NEARLYCLEVER! What is YOUR definition of poetry? When I look it up, this is what I get: po·et·ry/ˈpōətrē/Noun: Literary work in which special intensity is given to the expression of feelings and ideas by the use of distinctive style and rhythm. I would personally classify some of what you write as being a piece of literary work which has a distinctive style. Prose poetry maybe?

That is a miserable definition of poetry.  Distinctive style?  I could take a shit on an Ayn Rand novel and call that poetry because of my distinctively poopy style.

Actually... that is pretty poetic...

There is a button on my blog that lets you ask me questions

I only just noticed it.  Someone should use that.

Last night I read books with professors

And it went pretty well.  If you've read my previous post, you'll understand what reading books entails.

It's looking like I might find work teaching remedial courses at Ivy Tech.  I'm insanely excited.  After a few ice cold novels, they were insisting that I stop by, drop off a resume, and hang out with them on campus.  I seemed to fit right in.

It feels good to belong.

The Fifty Year Sword

Mark Z. Danielewski releases his new novel, The Fifty Year Sword, in less than a few weeks.

Doesn't it just look gorgeous?

The battle against dishes may never end

I don't mind doing dishes-- what does bug me is how often I get hungry for the type of food that uses dishes.  I hate taking a dish out of the clean pile or adding a dish to the dirty pile after I only just finished doing the dishes.

We use too many dishes in this household.

No matter what we always use dishes faster than we clean dishes.  I don't remember the last time we had literally no dishes to do.

Dishes are like road construction.  There will always be road construction.   At no given point can you ever drive entirely from one end of the country to the other without encountering some kind of road construction.

Why does this strike me as kind of sad?
