"I'm not crazy, my mother had me tested."

-Sheldon Lee Cooper

"There’s a rag rug in my kitchen which I am having an odd reaction to. When I stand on it in bare feet, I feel cool water on the bottom of my feet.

I hear water trickling around me. Yet, when I get on the floor and examine the rug, it is perfectly dry.

To my hands it feels like music. I run them over the black and white lines in the rug and I hear notes from various instruments. Different colored motes of light start floating up and forming patterns.

It’s disconcerting. I don’t particularly want to have that much engagement with a rug."

I have spent my whole life seeing, hearing, tasting, feeling things that no one else does. Crazy people are my peeps.

I am a child of Delirium, she who once known as Delight/All I need is a talking dog named Barnabas and my world will be complete. ;-)

20, 20, 24 hours to go

I wanna be sedated

Nothin' to do, nowhere to go-oh

I wanna be sedated

Just put me in a wheelchair, get me on a plane

Hurry, hurry, hurry before I go insane

I can't control my fingers, I can't control my brain

Oh, no, oh-oh, oh-oh

I wanna be sedated.

-Ramones

My entire life can be described in one sentence: Things didn’t go as planned, and I’m OK with that.
