One of the more interesting parts of this was in late 2014 when I began to date a woman who, for the sake of propriety and fairness to her, will be called Lynn. Lynn was attractive in many ways — she had

All right, so I covered the Traumatic Brain Incident (TBI) in my last post ( and I briefly described how I had been affected and what brought me to the point of finding that I needed medications. There
