A bit under the weather I think.

Or maybe it’s just the day, the grey or my big fat head. Whatever it is, I’m in a snit.

Not a snit where you yell and kick and blame others for what they know you did, but a snitty kind of snit. An out of focus snit. An out of breath snit. A newspaper reading, the worlds all the same, except for witches snit.

They were buried and burned by the way. The witches I mean. Maybe not in that order, those witches by neighbors who feared for their daughters. Those neighbors cared not one bit for the witches, but gathered in groups and posses and mobs. Mobs in a snit. Mobs in a fear fit. Mobs who dug holes to put their snit in it. Their snits, the witches and tires on top. Relieved they went back, those mobs, to their crops. Until next time. . .

I clicked “close”.

Knowing the news, being “in the know” is no friend when you’re feeling low. Unless your goal is to feel lower than low, in which case it does just fine.

ya know?

    Great, just frickin’ GREAT!!!

    Derrick’s in a snit, and “better living through pharmacology” has invaded his blog – in more ways than one I’ll bet.

    I do have to admit though, that is a cool ad — don’t you need to have a warning label for today’s blog? Something along the lines of:

    Common side effects include nausea, anxiety, dizziness, insomnia, low blood pressure, muscle stiffness, muscle pain, sedation, tremors, increased salivation and weight gain (it is not uncommon for patients taking risperidone over long periods to gain upwards of 50 pounds or even more). It has also been known to cause sexual dysfunction such as retrograde ejaculation.
    Occasionally breast tenderness and eventually lactation in both genders may occur. Many antipsychotics are known to increase prolactin because they inhibit dopamine. However, risperidone is known to increase prolactin to a greater extent than most other antipsychotics . . .

    LOL! Now let’s be clear I’m NOT taking Risperdal!! :) But the picture was too good to pass up.

    I’ve seen people who do take it, while I’m not sure of their dosage–and what other things they were also on, they were zombies!

    The only time I’ve seen you in that state–actually there were two: one early morning before coffee, and the other late night after Irish Whiskey. But, I figured what the hell that’s me too!
