*sigh* Friday, Aug 27 2010 

Unforatunately, I will not be able to visit any asylums on my trip. I was unable to arrange anything. Well, I might be able to drive past one! I’ll see if I can snap a picture or two. Sorry for the disappoint, my little crazies.

I also forgot to write a review for the book. I’ve been busy. Hopefully things will come together soon.

So frustrating!!!!! Monday, Aug 16 2010 

Hey crazies! I’m trying so hard to get into an abandoned insane asylum. I refuse to do it illegally, so I have a lot of phone calls to make. In the meantime, I’m going to write a review for the asylum book I have, and I shall hopefully post it tomorrow!

School at Central Islip Monday, Aug 9 2010 

My grandma was a teacher, and she taught at a school that was on the grounds of Centrail Islip Insane Asylum.  All the students were connected to the asylum in some ways.  Some were the offspring of doctors, while others had parents who were janitors.  Some even had parental units that were insane.

Hooray for Long Island! Wednesday, Aug 4 2010 

I just found out the Long Island, located in New York, has a whole museum on Psychiatric Care.  Yes! Yes!  Yes!  Finally, society is taking interested in America’s darker history.

I still have some e-mails to send to owners of abandoned insane asylums.  So far, I have recieved no replies.  So, I’m sending them more e-mails.  I really want to get into these lovely little buildings, but I refuse to break the law!

The Asylum for Wayward Victorian Girls Sunday, Aug 1 2010 

Emilie Autumn’s marvelous book, whose title is above, is finally up for preorder!  Can you guess who is preordering a copy for herself?  Anyway, it looks like a very interesting book.  It combines modern day asylum experiences with Victorian asylum experiences.  What more could you want?  Plus, this books comes out of the mind of the most amazing person ever.  You must get this book if you have ANY interest in asylums at all!  But you must preorder it because the book sells out instantly.  So, my little crazies, expect to see a review for this book very soon. :)
