Monique Colver: May 2013
http://moniquecolver.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Early Lies: The things we learn before we know to disregard them. Friday, May 31, 2013. Mental Illness, Death, Life. Five years ago today I stood at the bedside of Stew Young and held his head while he died. That sounds overly dramatic and sad, when I say it like that. How about this:. Five years ago today I had a very bad day. For Stew, it was the last very bad day in a long line of them. The laughter was often in relief, but still, we take what we can get. Sometimes he forgot that life wasn’t all...

Monique Colver: Sleeping With The Dog
http://moniquecolver.blogspot.com/2013/10/sleeping-with-dog.html
Early Lies: The things we learn before we know to disregard them. Thursday, October 17, 2013. Sleeping With The Dog. When I woke up this morning, far too early as usual, there was a handsome man on one side of me and a furry dog on the other side. It’s like waking up in heaven, except for the excess hair. I’m not sure heaven is as furry as my life with a dog. No one ever hears him except me, and that’s because he doesn’t have to say anything. When he came back in we went back upstairs, because I was half...

Early Lies: The things we learn before we know to disregard them. Friday, November 9, 2012. Perhaps my story isn’t nearly as horrible as what’s happened recently to . . . well, anyone who isn’t me, but it was horrible for me, and really, I’m not sure what else matters. Of course, I love you all and hope that whatever’s going on is quickly resolved. But back to me. I was in my office yesterday, which is what I do when I’m at work (I’m in there RIGHT NOW! And is he the anti-Christ? By the time I got it sto...

Early Lies: The things we learn before we know to disregard them. Saturday, October 6, 2012. How To Be A Writer.5. Don’t mind me. I’m just sitting here waiting for inspiration to strike so I can get on with it. I’m also waiting for a chocolate cake to materialize in front of me. There’s about as much chance of that happening so I might as well. While I’m at it, the waiting part, I shall also be waiting patiently for some magical weight loss, and maybe some cookies. But if I were to wait for inspiration, ...

Monique Colver: September 2012
http://moniquecolver.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Early Lies: The things we learn before we know to disregard them. Sunday, September 30, 2012. The Color of Light. When I put the lid on the light tried to escape, pushing back against the lid while I pushed down, and just a bit of it got out, not much, but more than I’d like. I wanted the jar full, so it could last all winter, and not run out halfway through January. I kept walking, foolishly hoping they would think I was someone else. 8220;I can’t see the color of the air there,” I told him,...My mother...

Monique Colver: Counting My Blessings
http://moniquecolver.blogspot.com/2014/01/counting-my-blessings.html
Early Lies: The things we learn before we know to disregard them. Saturday, January 11, 2014. I try not to do this with the iPad because it’s heavier and I don’t want my face smashed when I fall asleep. The book was good, I’m sure, but I don’t remember any of it. This is quite normal when I’ve taken pain pills. When I woke up this morning I had two sets of earbuds in bed with me, and I have no explanation for why I would have two sets, because I only have the two ears. January 12, 2014 at 6:59 AM. Funny ...

Monique Colver: A Stepfather's Death
http://moniquecolver.blogspot.com/2013/09/a-stepfathers-death.html
Early Lies: The things we learn before we know to disregard them. Sunday, September 22, 2013. Recently I attended a funeral for a lovely man who married my mother years ago. Then they buried him next to my mother. 8221; I said, or I didn’t, but I was a traditionalist, partly from having seen both of my parents do the multiple marriage thing. Several years after I married, far from family and with just two drunk witnesses, my mother announced that she and Jerry were indeed getting married. I’d like ...
