FML saysOctober 28, 2017 at 5:38 amTom Petty from the “Don’t Come Around Here No More” video. Awesome tribute.Normal is the hardest costume to wear. And worrying about people noticing that it’s just a costume adds to the stress.Reply
Glen saysOctober 28, 2017 at 11:01 amThe variation I experience is that people prefer to see me as a normal person, and then call me out for failing miserably. They seem to forget that we’ve talked about my illness a number of times. Silly Normals.Reply
C. saysOctober 28, 2017 at 7:54 pmExcellent shout-out to Tom Petty, may he rest in peace.As for costumes, I love Halloween. It’s nice to dress up and pretend to be someone or something else for a while.Reply
Peter Watson saysOctober 30, 2017 at 9:07 pmZing! You nailed that one, Clay. And I too applaud the Tom Petty nod. Listen to his interview with Terry Gross on NPR, it’s great. He’s just a hell of a great guy, for one. But he also talks about struggling with depression after his divorce, and how his music changed after someone torched his house. Here’s the link to it on NPR: http://www.npr.org/2017/10/03/555302003/tom-petty-to-fresh-air-the-songs-mean-a-lot-to-people-and-it-means-a-lot-to-meReply

I don’t feel you anymore
You darken my door

There is no sense in pretending
Your eyes give you away
Something inside you is feeling like I do
