There was still the problem of how – or what – I was going to tell Maya and Robert. I’d burned through the migraine excuse a while ago, and I was seriously afraid they thought I was on drugs. I was right. I was having another morning when I couldn’t get started – they were … Continue reading Maya and Robert Find Out As Well

Introducing My Therapist
So what was it like going to the therapist for the first time? From what Travis told me, a lot of therapists see their clients (that’s what we’re called, not patients) on Zoom, but he prefers to see his therapist in person, and that office offers both options. Dr. Oliver said he wanted to see … Continue reading Introducing My Therapist
Anyone Know a Therapist?
It would be great to report that, after Luke’s diagnosis that I was depressed, everything suddenly got better, but that’s not what happened. If anything, it made me even more depressed because now I got to be depressed about being depressed. I missed getting up with the boys the Monday after we got back from … Continue reading Anyone Know a Therapist?
I’m back — and I’ve got a problem
I may not have felt 100% in the weeks after I had my first 'migraines', but there were no mornings where I couldn’t get out of bed, at least for a while. Not until Keaton’s birthday, which me, Travis, Dani and Jesse had a whole thing planned for. Pretty much out of the blue, I … Continue reading I’m back — and I’ve got a problem
Thanksgiving 2022 (part 3)
This year at Thanksgiving at Adam and Allan’s I was sitting between Ethan (Adam asked me if I was cool with that at the game on Tuesday…he said he figured I might be since I take care of children) and Esteban – so that was kind of the sports part of the table. Mrs. LaSalle … Continue reading Thanksgiving 2022 (part 3)
The Halloween Party
With COVID pretty much behind us (yeah, Maya already brought in someone to give us all the booster to the booster to the booster shot), we got to have a Halloween party this year. When I say “we”, I mean the boys, which means that we had about 20 kids, half of them from Matteo’s … Continue reading The Halloween Party
The Dodgers Choke
So the Dodgers blew it. Again. How many years does this make? And all we have to show for it is that 2020 World Series that, when I look back on it, really wasn’t the same thing as winning it all after a normal season. Yeah, I’ll still say that winning in 2020 was a … Continue reading The Dodgers Choke
Hunter Gets Harassed (last (!) part)
“Still, this case is unusual,” Mr. Blanchard continued after he’d heard both sides of the story, “in that we also have a complaint of sexual harassment on the part of a good-looking young man, and I have to admit that, in all the years I’ve been adjudicating sexual harassment cases for this network, I’ve never … Continue reading Hunter Gets Harassed (last (!) part)
Hunter Gets Harassed (part 9)
After we got to the network’s office building for the hearing into the sexual harassment complaint that was hanging over my head like a Sword of Damocles, they sent someone to meet us in the lobby. She took us upstairs to an empty conference room. I was lucky to have a lot of people on … Continue reading Hunter Gets Harassed (part 9)
Hunter Gets Harassed (part 8)
“Ok,” Bryce – the witness Keaton found who’d also been harassed by the woman who accused me of harassing her – began, “so I landed a job at the network in the programming department shortly after I graduated from film school. It wasn’t my dream job, but it was in the business, and, when they … Continue reading Hunter Gets Harassed (part 8)
