vents and sundry
1) definitely going to up the dosage on my meds 2) there is nothing quite so terrifying as being called at by a strange man while I’m minding my own business at the pool. Yelling “Hey pretty lady” at me, twice, is NOT going to get me to respond to you, it is however, going…

On Youtube
<![CDATA[Earlier this week we learned that google is planning on making a really dick move to indie artists, even taking away their content if they fail to sign on to the new thing. My love of indie music aside, this whole thing really angers and frustrates me as a youtuber. I know my content at…

New Meds Muse: Zoloft
I’ve been taking the full-dose of Zoloft (currently 50mg a day) for about a week now. I was going strong until I got stressed out on Friday, and then everything just kinda has been a haze of anxiety. I was super focused and creative and fucking fantastic for a week…excusing the bouts of nausea/dizziness and…

<![CDATA[I finished Knack this week! I really loved the game and will likely be talking more about it in the future.

Kiery’s Stages of Getting Help
1) Meh, this is probably not anything. I can deal with it, everyone else is probably the same way. 2) I deserve this, I shouldn’t fix it, it’s just part of me and most likely my fault (thanks bad theology for roping yourself into the worst places) 3) That’s bullshit, no one deserves to live…

Yikes, I can’t believe it’s June. Last June a lot stuff happened – I submitted KieryGeek to Geek and Sundry, and there was hellcation while voting was happening, Humorotica started, and I did poems. I’m doing poems this year too. It’s probably more due to the lack of sleep and being anxious about my prescriptions…

Giving Too Much
Ever since my family became devout, they became regular tithers and givers. Before I go further, I should point out there is nothing wrong with giving as long as that giving isn’t negatively affecting your life (or that of your kids/family). Which, I realized somewhat recently is the case with my own family. They started out…

This Week in Art & Life (But Mostly Pictures)
Last weekend Alex and I went to New York to see some comedy shows as an early anniversary thing and it was awesome. We saw The Thrilling Adventure Hour and Comedy Bang! Bang! and went to a movie and checked out central park and generally had an awesome weekend. Then we drove all night Sunday…
