I titled this post more to show off my kickass alliteration skills - thank you Mr. Marchbank. Well actually, it is sort of descriptive. A bit. I am having trouble sleeping, I feel inspired, and I am a bit cranky, so go figure.
Anyway, my small, growing and loyal readership has demands of my posts making some sort of point, god forbid they find another blog to read. The last few posts have alternated between bankruptcy law stuff and another series I am trying to start about teachers. I haven't had a chance to get to teachers yet (aside from a reference in this post)..
The origin of the name is that the majority of the world is different than me - they are not bipolar. This isn't really suprising to anyone. So the basic point of the name is to emphasize I am and feel different than most people of the world.
The primary point of the name is pride (in the name of love). It is a misconception that we bipolar people have a disability (legally bipolar is disability, but I'm not making a legal argument). We are just different. I am not going to sit in the psychiatric closet (second place was going to the back of the psychiatric bus).
Therefore, the point of the name is to express to the world I am not ashamed of my condition. In fact I embrace it. Before you say "surely you can't be serious", I say - "check out this list, and don't call me Shirley.
