Well, hello fellow hunker-downers. Coming to you high on half an Ambien. (giggling) My doctor prescribes ten milligrams when I can’t sleep. I get so wound up over all this! But I only take a half of it otherwise I eat everything in the house.

But look. [holds up a brown journal with a clasp] Another way I calm down is [clasp unopens] is I write … in my journal … [holds up the open journal, which has notes and pictures of flowers and cute animals] And I put little, [turns the page to show off more stickers that include pug dogs] stickers, I (giggling) decorate!

I’m a high school cheerleader stuck in a sixty-five-year-old male body. My Violette stickers came today [holds up a sheet of fruit and flower stickers]. Look! Aren’t they beautiful? [holds up more stickers of old-timey portraits of children] I think I fell out of the womb and landed in my mother’s high heels.

[holds up stickers of cats] I just like things pretty. I think that’s why homosexuals were put on this earth, (emphatically) just to make things pretty. [holds up stickers of rabbits] Rabbits~
