• Hang On To Your Ego

  Posted on Thursday June 4th, 2009 at 08:47 in growth, change, stress, eating disorder recovery

  I don’t think many people would look to Frank Black (or Black Francis or whatever it is that he’s calling himself these days) for advice, but sometimes he throws titles out there that really out to shape people more. “Hang on to you...

• Can’t Put the Rain Back in the Sky

  Posted on Friday February 20th, 2009 at 06:49 in stress, momentum, eating disorder recovery

  Sometimes I’m astounded by how quickly the week goes by and how little I seem to get accomplished, even when I’m under a lot of pressure to get things done. Today I’m going to be taking part in a phone call with someone with whom I&...

• Let Me Say That This Something Is Nothing at All

  Posted on Sunday February 15th, 2009 at 12:57 in Emotions, stress, frustrations, eating disorder recovery, emotional tension

  Even now, there are times when I find myself trying to make nothing out of something. “Oh it’s just not that big of a deal.” “It doesn’t matter, whatever you want.” “No, really, everything’s fine.”...

• It’s That I Leap and Then I Look

  Posted on Thursday February 12th, 2009 at 10:24 in stress, edc, emotional growth, eating disorder recovery, web projects, personal chaos

  I have a habit of jumping in and then wondering what the hell I was thinking; given how much I can think myself into corners and boxes, this is something that still surprises me a bit. It’s not entirely a new thing - it’s how this blog st...

• Eating Disorder Recovery: Finding One’s Self in a Funk

  Posted on Sunday December 28th, 2008 at 21:15 in recovery, stress, fear, eating disorder recovery

  It doesn’t happen quite as often as it used to for me, but there are definitely those times that leave me thinking that there is something that is desperately askew and about as far from right as humanly possible. Today I had one of those days ...

• I’ve Been Thinking a Lot Today

  Posted on Thursday December 4th, 2008 at 10:39 in depression, anxiety, money, stress, emotional reactions

  Truth be told, I do a lot of thinking - I think myself into corners a lot of the time and then have trouble working my way back out of them. Today has been a little bit different though, if only because I’ve been thinking about direction - and ...

• Found Myself Some Breathing Space

  Posted on Wednesday November 19th, 2008 at 07:13 in work, stress, choices, personal chaos

  Not really found, so much as created. It just gets tough sometimes to take a break, to allow myself a break rather. Last week I requested that my workload be shifted a bit - the closest that I’ve come to saying that I am overwhelmed ever - afte...
