Introduction Basically, I am a pretty easygoing, down to earth person. But that is only when I am not cycling from Bipolar Disorder II. I started this blog as an assignment from my therapist to rant for 1/2 hour each day about how much I HATE this condition and what it has done to my life. So I will use that time to talk about myself, my relationships, my illness, and depending on if I'm manic that day, who knows what else!

Certain scenes during the musical "Stomp" - absolutely hilarious!
