Act 2, Episode 4: Niagra... One last unplanned monologue inspired by, sadly, another fall. Two instant classics. An oldy, but a goody, and a new one you really should not try at home.

Act 2, Episode 3: PSA. Another unplanned monologue to help you help me, or...a trip inside the mind of a disabled person trying to get through a fucking door :-)

Act 2, Episode 2–Alchemy. An unplanned monologue about an unplanned and cartoonish spill followed by a spill and more spilling. Can we please transform this weight into something useful?

A piece I wrote for Rare Disease Awareness Day. What's the ask? What's at stake? 

Bonus Episode! Different from the usual monologue, this is a recitation of something I've written about a topic near and dear to my heart: the startle reflex. Sweet Lord, it can be so intense sometimes. But this one was also kinda funny. Enjoy. 

Act 2, Episode 1–Winter, please! Absurd falls, a shrinking world, more music references and...what's that on the horizon? It almost looks like...

Episode 17–Coda: Re-entry. Final monologue of this act, about moving start lines and ghosts. These three final monologues done in one day (Ep 15, 16 & 17) are going up to conclude this...act? (season?) I know you think I've been holding back on the vulnerability...so, to build to intermission, these last few were deliberately done when I wasn't feeling remotely "on" or "well" or certainly "ready". Because...who is feeling like that right now? wtflerosis: monologues from the neuromuscular carousel. Cringe! Laugh! Share!

Hallway Marathon (Beautiful Force, part 2)  *this is FOURTEEN in a series of monologues from the neuromuscular carousel* An absolutely batshit crazy 8.5 hours in an ER hallway, except there were easily 25 people in a salad spinner of their own suffering, watching the same batshit crazy show I was. Yet again, I was not in control, I calmly observed as the mostly-audio channels flipped between the scenes of life around me. Visit wtflerosis on Instagram or youtube to watch the amazingness of a man applying sticky notes to himself to impact your emotions. It's shameless. Cut him some slack though; sadly, it's accurate.  See Running Start and Four Symptoms I Could Do Without for further context. My first symptom was Feb 22.
