http://scorpionsojourn.blogspot.com/2007/10/its-amazing-clarity-that-comes-with.html
Friday, October 12, 2007. It's amazing the clarity that comes with psychotic jealousy.". I've had to allow myself some emotional distance from this one before writing it. It's been saved as a draft for almost 2 months now. That's how long ago I found out some news that made the green-eyed monster in me surface (and, yes, it's just a coincidence that I do, in fact,. See, we have this cousin. Maybe you have one like her. Maybe you. Even as adults, she graduated college before me even though she's a year yo...

Scorpion Sojourn: "I'm always lookin' out my own eyes."
http://scorpionsojourn.blogspot.com/2013/06/im-always-lookin-out-my-own-eyes.html
Thursday, June 20, 2013. I'm always lookin' out my own eyes.". When C awoke sporting the same fever he was sporting last night, having broken it and put it back together several times through the night, I was a little worried. Off-season colds worry me more than the on-season ones. Why? I'll have to get back to you. So, I texted my nurse-sister and got some nursley reassurance. And justlikethat, my work day was back on! Then, at some point throughout the course of the day, I came across this article.

Tuesday, June 11, 2013. Let's look Death in the face and say, 'Whatever, man! I am the saddest of sads about the tragic and untimely death of Google Reader. I've been practically despondent for months. {Simultaneous lack of posts a coincidence? Yes let's just blame Google for that, shall we? Not only does this feel like another way to force me into a smartphone (*shudder! Or into some other dark force such as Twitter (*double shudder! Let's observe a moment of silence. Some years ago, after my first preg...

Thursday, January 16, 2014. Whoa, that's gonna be like a billion transfers to get back to my house.". She's zinged me lately. First trimester death-march. Winter colds. Unborn baby with a muscle/joint disorder. Poor husband working 13 hour days and most weekends ( salaried. That's the kinda FaceTime I'm talkin' 'bout, folks. And yet, even so, I ended the day with hot tears of frustration making me blink hard before they finally boiled over. Among the things I read today, was this. No wonder I feel heavy-...

From my list and routinely buy things that aren't on it. I buy. We need and want, spend. That juice cost almost $3? Followed closely by "What?

Scorpion Sojourn: "The voodoo clock speaks again!"
http://scorpionsojourn.blogspot.com/2007/10/voodoo-clock-speaks-again.html
Saturday, November 3, 2007. The voodoo clock speaks again! I'm just trying to figure out. It is we got to this point. I mean, I've always known M likes clocks, watches, alarms - seemingly. Itself. Me, not so much. Add to this that. Family is always on time (sometimes early) and. Is usually (if not always) late. . . well it gets a little messy, that's all. This is my life. We have an alarm clock with two alarm time settings, and he still sets the alarm on his cell phone. That said, I'm really. A constancy...

Scorpion Sojourn: "Bueller?... Bueller?... Bueller?"
http://scorpionsojourn.blogspot.com/2013/06/bueller-bueller-bueller.html
Wednesday, June 5, 2013. I'm always impressed (and a bit jealous? Of those who can keep two thoughts in their head and then can actually blog about them. I have plenty of thoughts when I have no time, and plenty of time when I have no thoughts. Such is life. May was a banner month, in almost every possible bad way. Excepting my baby's first birthday, May can be described in a series of idioms: falling off the wagon, dropping my basket. Losing my nut, going fruit loops fuh-reakin' crazy. If not, well.

Scorpion Sojourn: "I'll unleash all my Wilderness Explorer training!"
http://scorpionsojourn.blogspot.com/2013/06/ill-unleash-all-my-wilderness-explorer.html
Friday, June 28, 2013. I'll unleash all my Wilderness Explorer training! As I lay with my baby tonight, helping him into an early bedtime (summer colds really stink! I experienced something I haven't in a long while: the ability to focus my attentions on one child during bedtime. As both our bodies grew still, and his grew heavy with pre-sleep, my mind was free to step gingerly on the rocks across the slushy, murky Mombrain river, and arrive firmly in the land of Thought. When my oldest rolls closer to m...

Scorpion Sojourn: "The few syllables you got out were absolutely devastating."
http://scorpionsojourn.blogspot.com/2013/05/the-few-syllables-you-got-out-were.html
Sunday, May 12, 2013. The few syllables you got out were absolutely devastating.". Once upon a time, I was able to write missives (missives, I tell you! About Very Important Things. You know, like Mother's Day and stuff. These days, I can't even put a sentence together. Or if I AM able to, it's usually heavily-laden and dripping with Mommy and aimed at my children. So, bear with me while I get a few devastating syllables out. PS I've been reading some posts over at The Orange Rhino. A mirthfully married ...
