Telling the Tale (Someday)

The Scarlet B Posted on June 2, 2012 by RaeynJune 2, 2012

Inspired by Alice’s biographical post of the other day, I feel inspired to follow suit. The problem with that? Focus. Focus focus, who’s got the focus? It’s not me, and that is a bit of a perennial problem. Writing things … Continue reading →

On Being British

The Scarlet B Posted on May 31, 2012 by RaeynMay 31, 2012

Last summer, I obtained my British citizenship. While I was relieved to have it finally done and over with, I wasn’t terribly excited by it. I wasn’t getting to put it to use; there haven’t been any elections since then, … Continue reading →

Passivity, Sanity

The Scarlet B Posted on May 22, 2012 by RaeynMay 22, 2012

I have always done my best to hide just how fragile I am. ‘They call me Mr. Glass’ – besides the fact that most of M. Night’s movies are crappy shambles, that line from Unbreakable always summed it up for … Continue reading →

Draggy Drowsy Dopey Day

The Scarlet B Posted on May 21, 2012 by RaeynMay 21, 2012

The last couple of days have been increasingly zombified in the morning; this morning I hit the point in the ‘cycle’ where I almost fell asleep on my desk while trying to answer a simple query. Hours, caffeine, water, and … Continue reading →

When You Don’t Know

The Scarlet B Posted on May 6, 2012 by RaeynMay 6, 2012

Anyone who has been following my blog for a bit has probably picked up on the fact that I was only recently diagnosed with Bipolar II. Those who have known me for awhile will know that I have only been … Continue reading →

‘Righteous’ Fury

The Scarlet B Posted on April 15, 2012 by RaeynApril 15, 2012

My husband and I woke our 2 year old up from her nap about half an hour ago. She, in the intervening time, been throwing a fit as only a toddler can because she wants to go to the park … Continue reading →

Progress

The Scarlet B Posted on March 15, 2012 by RaeynMarch 15, 2012

The nice thing about actually feeling safe enough to get things out of my head is that I can then make progress in picking them apart. It’s a fresh angle, still mainly untainted by tsking and commiseration and pissing contests … Continue reading →

Survival

The Scarlet B Posted on February 21, 2012 by RaeynFebruary 21, 2012

I have found the act of living is more one of survival for me. Can I make it through a day without having some sort of incident happen? Can I handle a simple-seeming task without having a total breakdown? I … Continue reading →

Not Running – Scared

The Scarlet B Posted on February 6, 2012 by RaeynFebruary 6, 2012

One thing that has baffled me the last 15 years or so is how scared Western culture is. With the advent of 24/7 news, we have created bogeyman after bogeyman, keeping many a person glued to their television in terror, … Continue reading →

Waiting for…

The Scarlet B Posted on February 4, 2012 by RaeynFebruary 4, 2012

Snow, of course! This weekend, it is pretty much guaranteed to snow. The weather is freezing at best, and mega-freezing at worst, and – you can already see it creeping across the map (I love the map, hence the boldeninging… … Continue reading →
