As I may have mentioned before, July 2007-April 2008 pretty much vanished for me. We spent the vast majority of that time up at the hospital, in a mental haze and under extreme stress. It’s like those months never happened — they just dropped out of the timeline and I moved from June 2007 to May 2008 without nearly a year passing in between.<\/p>\n
This has lead to a lot of mental confusion. Things I remember as happening ‘last spring’ were actually two years ago. Movies, television, current events. It’s confusing and disorienting to be thinking of something as having occurred within the recent past only to find that it was long ago. It doesn’t help matters that we are pretty much stuck at home and all our days are nearly the same. The last time I was out by myself for any length of time was August 2008, when I went down to IKEA and bought some bookshelves. That is almost 6 months ago, but it doesn’t feel like it was that long ago. On the other hand, it has only been a month since the weekend mom and I gave Bob 2 days off, and that feels like it was years ago.<\/p>\n
I’m not sure how to re-stick myself in time. I’m not working enough hours for that to really help me. TV helps a little but I’m still watching stuff from last year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
