Interrobang Me Hard, Baby

  • About This Blog The Interrobang Me Hard, Baby blog will cover the broad strokes of my life, in no particular order or category. I tend to narrate events in my head, particularly when things are stressful and I am searching for solutions or coping mechanisms, so I thought I would start writing these narratives down. Enough people…

  • Why Interrobang?! An interrobang is this punctuation mark: ?! Interro for question, bang because in the old timey days an exclamation point was called a bang. I loved the word the second I heard it, because it is the perfect blend of huh? and WHAT! I feel that word in my soul. Interrobang is an…

  • Spock and McCoy Tackle Chronic Pain…

    July 25, 2026 This morning I woke up barely able to breathe because my mid back, hips, shoulder, neck, jaw, and head were in extreme pain. I felt paralyzed. Instant panic, because I have been having prolotherapy interventions that have had my waking pain level at maybe two or three out of ten rather than…

  • Renaming ADHD

    April 29, 2026 Lately I have been giving a lot of thought to the names of things – psychological concepts in particular, and the manner in which those names and terms cause me to have sudden irritation or ugher (ugh + anger = ugher), or to roll my eyes right out of my head when…

  • The Book of Screet

    Wednesday, April 22, 2026 Who doesn’t love to invent words?! I am doing it constantly in my busy brain, and I recently came up with SCREET! (scream + yeet = SCREET!) I feel like the word screet should be in all caps with an exclamation point always attached, as it is a combination of the…

  • Daily Prompt 2026-04-13

    Where do you see yourself in 10 years? 2026-04-13 Ha! I usually don’t participate in these daily prompts, but this one is screaming my name. I spent today ruminating about the fact that my life is currently NOTHING like I expected it to be. Setbacks, one after another, have my fifties stretching out ahead of…

  • March 20, 2026 Been there, done that, bought the t-shirt… literally. Two times ago, when I wanted to quit on Feb 1st, I ended up going to a one person performance called “A Brief History of Smoking Cigarettes”, written and performed by Deanna Jones. I had come by the tickets in a serendipitous fashion, so…

  • November 2025 (I’m pretty sure) I don’t even know what day it is. Sometimes I have to really think to figure out the month, or the year, or my actual age. I recently turned 50 and had to keep reminding myself that I wasn’t turning 40, or 30, or 60. I just knew it was…

  • I almost never do this; write a post that I intend to publish immediately without worrying and overthinking about how to frame my thoughts. Nothing but a cursory edit. My dreams are sad and dark lately. Sad for my younger self as I navigate parenting my now adult child.  I am sitting in a waiting room…

  • The Little Train of Thought That Couldn’t Stop Itself…

    Or, Fuck Motivation  Feb. 1, 2025 Today I attended a music recital in which the child of my boyfriend was performing. About halfway through I started to cry, which shocked and embarrassed me. I am not one to cry, or express any emotion, really, if I can help it. Fighting emotions requires a ton of…

  • What books do you want to read? I have never responded to a prompt, but I can’t resist this one. I want to read all the books! I should probably start with my TBR bookcases. I currently have two. A problem I have is that when I am reading a book,  I go down rabbit…
