Is it me, or are they playing great music at CVS pharmacy? Awesome 80's song of the day! You gotta love The Pointer Sisters, right?

In the 1990's, I worked at a radio station and I hated half of the music that my station played. Matchbox 20 was one of the bands that I did not appreciate. We have the MTV Classic channel in our home now and I was just taken back to the 1990's today with this video. At first glance, I cannot get over the fashion styles of the 90's, which I hated even then. Why did so many musicians, like Rob Thomas from Matchbox 20, have Jennifer Aniston's haircut from the television show Friends? Everyone (men and women) sported the Rachel hairdo. What were we thinking? I never paid any attention to the lyrics of this song until now. We turned the closed captioning subtitles on our television, so I finally understand the lyrics of so many songs. 

This video, "Unwell," is a testament (once again) to how musicians love to sing about mental illness. Rob Thomas is not mentally ill, but he explores it in this video and song.  During the 90's, I was in college, and on the brink of mental illness. It is pretty interesting for me, to be taken back to that time, through this video. I never paid attentio back then, but so many years after it's release, I finally appreciate the sadness and thought that went into making this. Perhaps, the band knew someone or was touched by mental illness, in some way, too.

One day I will visit Santa Cruz. Gosh! I really haven't been anywhere ( besides home/San Diego) in years. I see a road trip to Huntington Beach in my near future. Whoop! 

Don Henley is one of my celebrity crushes. Love those drummers! He is not a young man anymore, but he was a fox!

Thinking about you!  No worries! I am not dangerous or anything! :)

I met with my psychiatrist the other day and admitted that I am a bit embarrassed about certain things that went down during my psychotic episode of 2014. I regret calling 911 so many times on my Venezuelan-American neighbors, who were doing nothing wrong. My Pdoc tried to make me feel better by saying there is a difference from the thoughts that people experience during psychosis and the thoughts of a true racist person. I have schizoaffective disorder. What is their excuse? 

One of my best friends from high school posted this today, to which I simply said, "Wow!" As a Caucasian American, I know very little about what I feared while psychotic. (Santeria) I have heard about Dia de los Muertos and I saw the Pixar movie "Coco," but I am still mystified by things, such as, the statement below.

 I may have thought my ancestors were speaking to me before, but not while I am cooking. (I could use their help cooking though.) LOL

In honor of International haiku day,

I try to cook well
Why don't my ancestors help
I could use a hand

You get a hug! You get a hug! I need a hug from this guy today!
