Placebo?
There’s a lot of buzz going on about a study that claims that doctors routinely prescribe placebos.
If this is something that alarms you, I encourage you to read this.

It is done
My ballot is in the mail!
It’s kind of exciting, because this is the first Presidential election I’ve ever voted in. I turned 18 3 weeks AFTER the 2000 election, and I stupidly forgot to mail in my absentee ballot in 2004.
But not this year!
It’s done!
One thing… Colorado, do you really need that many amendments and referendums on the ballot? I mean, come on!

Bacon… Ice Cream?
Yes, you read that title correctly. I just stumbled onto a recipe for, that’s right, bacon ice cream.
And just as you are inevitably doing right now, my first thought was ick.
Then I read the recipe. And I think I might like to try it.
Too bad I don’t have an ice cream maker anymore.

Over You
One day I’ll be able to sing this song and actually mean it.
Today is not that day.
Over You – Daughtry
I can’t believe you were the one
To build me up and tear me down,
Like an old abandoned house.
What you said when you left
Just left me cold and out of breath.
I fell too far, was in way too deep.
Guess I let you get the best of me.
Well, I never saw it coming.
And I should’ve started running
A long, long time ago.
And I never thought I’d doubt you,
I’m better off without you
More than you, more than you know.
I’m slowly getting closure.
I guess it’s really over.
I’m finally getting better.
And now I’m picking up the pieces.
From spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together.
‘Cause the day I thought I’d never get through,
I got over you.
You took a hammer to these walls,
Dragged the memories down the hall,
Packed your bags and walked away.
There was nothing I could say.
And when you slammed the front door shut,
A lot of others opened up,
So did my eyes so I could see
That you never were the best for me.
Well, I never saw it coming.
And I should’ve started running
A long, long time ago.
And I never thought I’d doubt you,
I’m better off without you
More than you, more than you know.
I’m slowly getting closure.
I guess it’s really over.
I’m finally getting better.
And now I’m picking up the pieces.
From spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together.
‘Cause the day I thought I’d never get through,
I got over you.
Well, I never saw it coming.
And I should’ve started running
A long, long time ago.
And I never thought I’d doubt you,
I’m better off without you
More than you, more than you know.

‘Cause I got over you.
Well I got over you.
I got over you.
‘Cause the day I thought I’d never get through,
I got over you.
The worst time of day
Being alone with your thoughts when you’re depressed is not generally a good thing. As such, the worst times of each day are when I’m in my car and as I lay in bed at night trying to fall asleep.
These are the times where I think. And I dwell.
About what’s happened. What might have been. What should have been.
And it sucks.
