"One-way streets and square one, The answers don't come from any one direction"

I live in Chicago with my boyfriend T and our mini-menagerie of 3 cats and 2 dogs. I have very little of world-changing importance to contribute but I like to see my words in print so I blog.

I suppose it is inevitable that I should transfer my complicated relationship with my father onto my relationship with my son. Inevitable and yet oh so predictable. Must do something to correct that. Stat.
There is this image that soothes me and I can't really explain why. When I get overloaded emotionally, I picture opening a vein and letting all of the unhappiness run out. Sound strange but it makes me calm.
