Robin Williams

This morning I read that Robin Williams had been diagnosed with Parkinson's. More significantly, he'd also been diagnosed with lewy body dementia whose symptoms are similar to Alzheimer's but also include depression.

This has turned my brain into a mental Union Station with various trains of thought that I'm trying - and failing - to articulate like Einstein's unified field theory. i think i'm just going to try and list the times of departure and follow up on all this later:

1) I've made my grieving process about everyone else and put off staring into the abyss of the reality that someone tried to end my existence;

2) Not dealing with the anger may be part of why I'm struggling with depression;

3) My life would make a great TV comedy/dramedy

4) Humor can be driven by anger - or by joy & wonder - but it's still about largely about our frailties.

5) I need to dedicate more personal time just for dwelling on stuff like this;
