Yes, I do suffer from a seizure disorder and I'm trying to be brave about it. I would really appreciate any of you, even just one person, taking a looksie.

I also have a blog about dreads there and my personal journey! :3

Read your blog and it was very touching. I cannot personally empathize but my sister-in-law has suffered with similar ailments since she was 3. She was on Keppra for a long time and that shit really messes with yourpsyche. they recently put her on something else which helpsallotwith balancing out her brain chemistry. As I was reading your blog Terrance McKenna kept coming to mind. He has some really interesting things to say aboutepilepsyin shamanic traditions. Check it out. It is worth a looksie: http://www.matrixmasters.net/salon/?cat=13&paged=3 podcast 270 for the podcast version. and you can the written text here: http://deoxy.org/t_thc.htm

Thanks for responding Joshua, yes, the market nickname for Keppra is "Kepprage," lol. I'd rather suffer mood swings than seizures, though. I've considered the shamanic calling but never really investigated it further, and it's weird you mention it because it's been at the back of my head for months now... you might be a little psychic! Thanks so much for reading and thank you even more for sharing! <3

Dreading Journey Part Two!

Hard to believe that you freak out thinking your dreads are messy. Mine would give you a stroke. It's like I have 27 different intertwined rollercoasters on my head.For a blog you mainly need to look at not only uniqueness but also continueing to generate interest throughout the text. You could write 10 paragraphs of text and if it continues to generate interest into the text then people will keep reading.I think style is important, you need to show people who you are through your writing. As long as you put it the way you think, rather then the way you should be writing it then it will look fresh, this combined with generating interest throughout text will keep people reading and coming back.And I happen to hate fridays. Every time it's friday I'm like "Damnit! Another weekend without sponduli". Another 48 hours being bored out of my mind. Lazy frigging brokers and banks. Why can't they stay open on weekends like all the bloody malls?

Ah, but you did read it, did you not? Secret weapon in action. :3 And thanks about the dreads, I'm just a perfectionist; trying hard to not be one.
