It’s a wrap.
Funny thing about the holiday season. It tends to bring the dilettante altruists out from the woodwork. Iâm not complaining. Iâm just striking while the iron is hot. The period between Thanksgiving and Christmas is when the cat shelter I volunteer for gets the bulk of its donations. The single biggest fund-raising event we do…
Friendship closes its eyes.
‘Love is blind, but friendship closes its eyes.” -English Proverb- I ran across that quote the other day, while researching something totally irrelevant to it. For some reason, it stuck with me. I’ve had reason to contemplate friendship over the past few days. But I’ll get back to that later. I have learned over the…
Daffodils, Taxes, Dune and *HUH?*
Liver: 418 Liver Status 7:(Inactive): 45 Liver MELD / PELD <10: 251 Liver MELD / PELD 11-18: 108 Liver MELD / PELD 19-24: 11 Liver MELD / PELD 25+: 3 I didn’t bother calling to find out what my MELD score was this week. Based on my last bloodwork, it would have dropped again and…
Songs of the Salamander; A Preamble
This was intended to be an afternoon project. It got out of hand. You may recall that back on October 21st I off-handedly commented that I’d been inspired by Roseanne Cash’s new CD, “The List”. I decided I was going to make my own top 100 list of songs. For those of you who enjoy…
Two Years at DD.
May fifth came and went, and I neglected to mention it was my second anniversary on Dear Diary. It seems so strange now to go back and read some of those earliest entries on the Salamander diary. I was absolutely clueless where I’d be two years hence, when the pressures on my life would take…
Problems are easier to find than solutions
So, it’s time to take stock of the situation a bit. With the divorce finalized, I need to start figuring out where I go from here. – I am not getting married again. Emphatically not. I told the Professor this long before he moved from California to be with me. He was upset at the…
I’ve sat here trying to think of a good comment, but what really comes to mind is "ouch." I feel the pain in your entry. I think this is a rollercoaster that we (those who keep online diaries) all ride. We put our words, feelings and hearts out there for everyone to see and sometimes we feel more vulnerable and exposed.

I dont know what to say…
Firstly, let me say I am at present reading your diary backward, so this comment is being made AFTER the ones on the more recent entry.
I echo the "ouch" above 🙁 I too hear you.
Not sure what this is all about, none of my business…except to say I care. Believe it or not.
You are a Latin scholar and will recognize this as bastardized Latin ;), but here goes: Illigitimi non carborundant.
Like the Elf, I too have read my way back to this point. I am also very sorry for whatever some jerk left in a private comment. L-ord knows, I’ve been there! I know how it sours the taste for online journaling, I’m dealing with a case of the Diarist’s Disease just now myself. I’m hoping to get over it, too. I’m glad I finally decided to pop in and leave a comment to see if you were alright. Yeah, I’m slow. Sue me. Oops, there’s that attitude showing again.
Hugs,
