I got a B in my both my sociology classes this semester, putting me back on the Dean’s List. Too bad I can’t transfer the credits any time soon because I can’t afford my $1720 in leftover tuition. Thank you, financial aid, for dry ass fucking me without a condom! On the other hand, I [...]

It’s incredible how many people frequently accuse me of leading a double or secret life. Well, perhaps not so incredible. I’ve always felt rather split between aspects of identity; they simply don’t mesh, particularly with the people who choose to embrace one side. I’ve met so few people in my life who have seen and [...]

Since 1996, my life has been a long journey of visiting one doctor after another. I look more or less fine, but I'm not. My daily pill count is like playing the dozens with a hospice patient. One doctor will say I'm doomed, and send me to another for treatment, but the treating doctor will find nothing within his or her area of practice that can be treated.
My life is better than a comedy, better than a drama. Anyone who has done this knows what I mean when I say that you have to not only know the rules, but also play the part in order to be allowed in the game. Most people find what we go through in the medical merry-go-round to be unbelievable, which is why I call it "The Drag of Gimp."
