I am stoked!
I love the TV
show, The Great British Bake Off (as
it is called in the UK). I just finished watching season six on PBS and I
hungered for more, so I started watching season one on You Tube. I have Apple
TV, so last evening I decided to try to access YouTube on my TV and I
succeeded.
It’s fabulous
to be able to watch YouTube’s and Vimeo’s movies and TV programs on my TV
instead of on my computer. Plus, they are immeasurably more engaging than the
shite I see on broadcast TV.
Besides The Great British Bake Off, I am hooked
on Stephen Fry’s QI.

Right now, at
10:00 am, here at home alone, if I try to speak out loud I nothing comes out.
But if I step outside and encounter a neighbour, I speak absolutely perfectly.
It’s so weird,
because on Tuesday I went to a meeting of my high school alumni. There were
about ten of us there and it was the most successful socializing I’ve done
since the onset of my PTSD symptoms. I barely stuttered and when I got home my
speech continued to be almost normal. I suspect things went so well because
I’ve known everyone for fifty-plus years.
For the past
few days, I’ve been almost symptomless. I suspect it could all come back with a
vengeance if I strayed off the familiar path, but I feel I am rocking recovery.
Clearly, the huge setback was due to Steve staying here and the social CHAOS of
Pride.
If I stick to
myself, do only one thing a day, reject invitations that involve a strange
place or people I do very well at
living my life.
