A pondering...
As some of y'all know a bitch is a culture addict with a background in cultural anthropology. I have learned to celebrate the belief systems of others and to honor a person's right to cultural expression.
But that value and honor shit has limits.
So, yesterday…a bitch was having a conversation with a friend and we were both expressing our annoyance over the allergy-based drama going on in our sinuses. Another individual joined the conversation and took issue with our "negativity". A bitch was annoyed…partly because my fucking head hurt and my eyes were burning but also because I have a right to be negative just like other people have the right to Let The Sun Shine! Let The Sun Shine In! The Sun Shine In! all up in my conversation about allergies.
Anyhoo, somehow or other this positive person introduced the notion that people choose to have allergies...that led to people choosing to be ill…which led to people choosing to be born in an oppressed group and be victims of genocide…which led to this individual saying that my autistic brother was born autistic because of choices made in a previous life.
Pause...sip orange soda pop...continue.
Now, that was where the value and honor other people's right to believe shit hit my mental wall.
The conversation ended...cough...and I quickly dismissed the individual because I don't actually think this person is committed to that belief system or any belief system as much as jumping from belief to belief whenever and for whatever reason.
But the opinions this person expressed are not new and deeply trouble me.
When I was a wee bitch some preacher told my mother that my brother Bill was born autistic because she had not been forgiven for her sins. I'll never forget hearing that…my mother told every person she knew through a multi-day phone-a-thon that the preacher was an asshole and that she would never step foot in that church again. I have heard that same opinion expressed from many different sources and, for a while, I internalized it. A bitch used to pray and pray to God begging for my brother to be "fixed" and it took me years to realize that The Divine One answered me…Bill's perfectly autistic and a blessing as he is. He's not a punishment…he didn't fuck something up in a past life…he is not the wages of my mother or father's sins.
Poor people aren't poor because they aren't faithful enough…middle class people aren't not rich as sin because they aren't as faithful as sinfully rich people...cancer isn't a punishment for some lapse in positivity…Darfur didn't have a genocide coming from some past life transgression.
The danger of this way of thinking is that it absolves us…you and this bitch and everyone in between…of any responsibility. It is a philosophy of Not My Fucking Problem that empowers believers to walk past, ignore and disdain others who may be in need. And it acquits those who do evil of what they have done and why they did it.
It also assumes an impossible level of control. If I falter…disease, poverty and misery. If I maintain…health, wealth and joy. "I" is at the center but not in a...dare I say it?..positive fashion. This bitch knows a true thing…we humans are powerless over a lot of shit, but we can control how we respond to shit.
Anyhoo, a bitch is all for positive thinking but I'm a believer in keeping shit real.
If there's a pile of bullshit in the room, positive thinking may bring someone in to clean that stankified mess up or mayhap that someone will come because she wasn't able to stand the smell. Either way a bitch doubts the bull took that shit in the middle of the room because the occupants of the room where getting their negative on.
Bulls shit.
Bulls in rooms will shit in them.
A bitch's secret would be to guide said bull back to pasture and latch the gate.

"The danger of this way of thinking is that it absolves us…you and this bitch and everyone in between…of any responsibility. "
That's what the power mongers guiding the fundies want them to believe. . .
"Pull yourself up by your bootstraps" "turn over a new leaf" "get your shit together" "buck-up"
Some people need to hear that shit, but you don't tell some ADHD 13 yr old that it's all his fault and all he has to do is change. - 2:23 PM

Oh, Bitch and Sagacious--
I needed two folks like you to make me think the ENTIRE world hasn't gone mad. From a father-in-law who told me via e-mail yesterday that 1)George W. Bush will be remembered as one of the greatest American presidents in history and 2)CFL light bulbs are a left-wing conspiracy to expose people to mercury, to my husband getting an e-mail from the parent of a student telling him that she didn't want her daughter (who came out to her this week) to join the "AIDS Club" i.e. the Gay/Straight Alliance, I've had it up to here with the straight assholes whose belief systems are based on hatred, xenophobia, intolerance, greed, and fear.
It makes me sick to my stomach. I need y'all people to keep me grounded in the fact that not everyone is a total clueless jerk.
Love ya. Mean it. I raise my virtual cocktail glass to you. - 3:21 PM

I am glad to see that there are some free thinkers left, who know that bad shit happens, but that KNOW that it isn't all our fault.
A dear friend of mine died this February due to an inoperable brain tumor. His widow still struggles with the 'why him', 'what could we have done to prevent this'.
The answer is there is nothing anyone could have done and there may not be a 'reason' we can grasp as to why he got sick.
But I know this just as sure as somewhere about this murky cloud deck the sun is shining, RK did NOT deserve this, his wife did not deserve this, no one deserves allergies, AIDS, Darfur, China's crackdown on Tibet.
It is a testament as to our strength that we deal with these things, stand up and try to stop evil doers and comfort the suffering. - 4:25 PM
There goes the legacy of the prosperity preachers (Hagee, Eddie Jones, Creflo Dollar, and the like) and Christian Scientists. They are a menace to society.
NancyP - 4:52 PM
This preacher has long been picking up the pieces after folks like "some preacher" who talked with your mother.
Your combination of urban bitchitude and rural knowledge of the habits of bulls is truly delightful. I'd love to share your theological insights with my parish in my next sermon, but I'm not sure the ABB vernacular would translate well to the pulpit.
Perhaps over coffee and in less formal settings . . .
Thanks, Shark-fu -- and keep enjoying the blessing that Bill is in your life.

scientologist or fundie? oh right- that's splitting hairs ;) i don't want to have allergies either and i am all sorts of crabby and bitchy when i am suffering and i don't give a you know what who's on the receiving end at the time. it is not my choice and it is certainly tough to live with.
on a less bitchy note from me- i have two words- neti pot. for the sinuses. trust me- warm salt water washing through your sinuses brings almost instant relief. almost INSTANT!! i was delighted and a whole lot less likely to punch out folks like your positive stranger. - 6:33 PM
Well! You've sure kicked open the door to the grownups' room. This is my favoritest area in religion/ethics/moral philosopy. Anyone care to join me in exploring theodicy, deconstructing Job, and pondering the Noble Truth that to exist is to suffer?
- bitchphd said...
This bitch would make the bull trample the person standing around telling you to Think Positively on the way back to the pasture.
The fact that you wouldn't suggests that you're less a bitch than a motherfucking saint. (And I love that your mom called everyone she knew to tear that pastor down. Awesome.) - 7:21 PM
Amen to all of the above. We have to believe that saner minds will prevail.
When did we choose the illnesses we have...oh yes, the evil of our past lives? I once was told that if we 'do evil' in this life we have to keep coming back until we get it right. Didn't know that meant the illness comes with us??? Do u think Miss Sunshine was just batting mouth to stir u up by any chance..the mind game???
- ar said...
Thanks for this lovely posting. Sort of reminded me of my mother who when I would tell her about some or other plight would say I need to be positive, i.e. whatever negative happened to me is as a result of having been less than positive. I am responsible for the shit that happens to me in other words. Do you believe in that too? I don't. Shit happens period.
Long-time lurker here. Dear Bitch, how can I learn to be more like you? You actually seem to think before you react. I react (usually with a truckload of anger) and think "oops" later, and then try to recover.
- girl6 said...
Yep. Some people don't believe shit stink even if they're up to their necks in it.
And another thing, while we're talking about belief: I've had it up to my braids with people jacking other folks' traditions without first learning about, honoring and experiencing said traditions they just jacked.
This one time, I was at a beach party at one of the Great Lakes. Some skinny, shirtless paleface (with a ponytail and faux Lakota tattoo) was running up and down the beach, scooping up sand and mud and sticks and shit and putting it in a pile. I watched first with curiosity and then alarm, as it was late afternoon on a Midwestern July day with about 200% humidity and dude looked he was about to spontaneously combust. I asked him what he was doing and he said, "I'm building a sweat lodge." I noted that he was already sweating profusely so I'm all like, "Why?" And he says, "So that we can have a sweat and commune with the ancestors."
Because, you know, his Luthern great grandmother is gonna show up at some duffus-ass sweat lodge.
That shit pisses me off. - 10:56 PM

Right said, well said. I like to think of karma running over certain people's dogma, but that "previous life" crap rankles as much as any other superstition, or, excuse me, "religion." It just inspires people to do nothing but sit around being uninspired.
- Amanda Marcotte said...
I've been hearing that about allergies more and more. I blame acupuncture and chiropraction-whatthefuckever. People think you can cure your allergies by poking yourself with needles and popping your back, and they're going to conclude that it's all in your head. I mean, I blame that in part, along with larger trends you point to.
- Jeffrey Ricker said...
Honestly, my mind still reels when I think about that "conversation." The one thing I wonder, though, is: if I had given into my urge to shove her disagreeable ass down the stairs, once she reached the bottom, would she still have been of the opinion that we bring these consequences into our own lives? Somehow, I doubt it.
- mikeinportc said...
There's still a lot of the by-your-own-bootstrap TRUEBELIEVERS that think all sorts of things, especially mental illnesses are choices . "Just get over it " Bad brain chemistry doesn't exist .
( I'm thinking depression, bipolar etc, as examples . I'm not referring to autism and your brother. I know that's a whole 'nother thing .)
The just don't realize that they were lucky , along with possibly being "good" somehow . They can't understand how everybody else might not be so lucky . Life can turn on so many (seemingly)little
things. This instead of that , and it's completely different thereafter .
Btw, allergies do suck . I'm stuffed up from now 'til hard frost . Blahhh! - 12:26 PM

These "positive" people are probably also the ones who think they've earned every scrap of privilege they have on their lonesome. I'd like to swap immune systems with them. Let them feel what it's like when your body decides that peanut butter is a deadly toxin...

I have a neti pot, but I've never been able to get the saline to washing through my sinuses. Any tips? - 7:41 PM
- Twuppet said...
Right on. I agree on all points but one. I don't believe in evil. Yeah, obviously there have been infinate instances of inexpressable horrors perpetrated.
But I prefer to (when pressed) call it sick. I just don't believe that people are inherantly good or EVIL. We're all just people who, based on our knowledge or lack thereof, make choices that affect the world. To my mind it's a healthy thing to try to relate to others with compassion and empathy, while it's SICK to judge people superficially, or condemn them without even attempting to understand what their experience has been, or is etc.,.. I guess you could argue that it's a semantical argument, but the word we use matter. They're powerful. And to use the word Evil, particularly, I feel only serves to empower a divisive, war-mongering, antiquated and outmoded belief system. - 11:36 PM
Real bitch of blog. Thanks for keeping it real!
Peace! - 3:44 PM
Angry Black Bitch,
this was amazingly wonderful!
I am so sick and fucking tired of being told that it is all in my head or that if I would just.
whether it be horrible pain from a debilitating disease,
or that i should just "cheer up"
or that privilege is made up and that if I could find a way to admit that I would be "free".
I don't comment here as much as I should, but when I do, it really brings me home.
Thank-you. - 4:11 PM
As someone who kinda believes in karma, it always causes me dismay when people get it so wrong, and particularly when they use it to justify or minimize others' oppression and suffering, or their own acting like a jerk.
As far as any major religious tradition is concerned, karma is not a system of punishment and reward. Just cause and effect. It's not some mystical force that makes everything right and fair. Anyone who really understands Buddhism or Hinduism would tell you that. - 1:04 AM
*Sneezecough* Help me recall - which of the new age Self-help books was this Sunshine Monger quoting (spewing) from? It was on Oprah... if you're poor it has nothing to do with your financial circumstances and everything to do with your attitude? If you're sick it's because you want to be? Too new-age-y for the Christian Presses, but close. Nuts - I'm going to have to google it and then block it from my memory again.
CERTAINLY attitude is everything; some people do malinger or whine when they're not really sick (sorry guys, but most of you are babies when you come down with so much as the sniffles...) money does not buy happiness, we carry the crosses we can bear, yadda yadda yadda but anybody tries to tell me someone has a disease because they aren't "good enough" or are paying for sins past is going to get a fist right to the nose and an innocent "Oh sorry, the Devil made me do it." - 10:17 AM

Oh argh! I've known people like that! Wretched!
I have often wanted to respond to these people by smacking them upside the head and then saying, "apparently, you choose to get yourself hit today."
What with espousing nonviolence and all, I never actually do it, but the temptation... oh lord the temptation! - 11:22 AM
i hate when people say that!
what really really kills me is when you hear on the news that they saved a little girl, rescued her from the kidnapper, and "god wanted her to live" what kind of shit is that? so all of the other little girls who were raped and killed, what of them? God didn't care about them? How's about God isnt a kidnapper, and didn't make the decision in the first place?
or like when they showed the follow up to that crazy story last year about the two girls who were mixed up in the car crash and one fam though their daughter was dead but she was really in intensive care being nursed by the dead girl's family. the one who lived goes on tv and says right in front of the other girls family "god chose me to live" "i feel honored that god chose me" you could see the pain on the other family's face. it was horrible of her to say she was somehow more valuable than the other girl. - 8:25 AM

I am copying and pasting this whole post into my blog. You rock on witcha bad self, ABB.
Kudos to your patience on this one. I'm sure the allergies in St. Louis are just as bad as they are in DC this time of year. For some people there's no escaping it, and it is certainly real.
I woulda made Mr. Sunshine snort a line of cherry blossom pollen to see if his opinions on allergies remained the same... - 4:48 PM

If you'd'a throttled Miss Sunshine, and I was on the jury, I'd hang the damn thing if I coudn't get you acquitted. Good Maude does that happy crappy bullshit piss me off. I famously lost it on one of my mother's friends when she (1) chalked up the fact that my daughter's father fell down the meth hole to some "past life" shit he owed me for, and (2) my negativity about the matter (after she brought the subject up) was an affront to her spiritual beliefs and endangering her health (in my house. my house! y'know, the one I pay for, whose door her ass can or cannot hit on the way out when she leaves if she doesn't like it).
After my daughter got out of the NICU (both NICUs; she spent some time at Cardinal Glennon also!), I heard that a lot---how she "made it" because of prayers, or faith, or whatever. Frankly, it was pure grace. A gift. Those poor parents who buried their babies didn't bury them for a lack of prayers, lemme tellya.
Gaah. I start thinking eeevil thoughts around the "you picked your poison, now drink up" types. Something about needing a triple-shot of their own bad medicine. - 10:15 PM
I'm writing from LA were everyone is into "The Secret" and the americanized version of Karma, which sounds really great when you are talking about parking spaces, but not so good when you apply to rape, genocide, natural disasters, etc.
Didn't you know, people without clean water are just not putting that positivity into the universe...sigh. - 7:48 PM

Common Types of Arrowheads: Broadheads
Broadhead: Used primarily for big game hunting. The number of steel blades it contains may vary. The only arrowhead that may be used for big game hunting is the broadhead. It must be solidly built and always razor-sharp. Many states have laws governing the minimum diameter and number of cutting edges of the broadhead used to hunt big game.
Mechanical (Expandable) Blade Broadhead: Blades are retracted close to the ferrule before the shot. Upon impact, the blades expand to expose the cutting edges. These are recommended for use only with bows rated 50 pounds or more because most require additional energy to open upon penetration.

Understand the Benefits
A fixed index annuity (FIA) offers a unique combination of benefits that can help you achieve your long-term goals. No other product offers the tax deferral, indexed interest potential, and optional benefits to protect your retirement assets and income.
Let's take a closer look at the three key benefits of fixed index annuities: tax deferral, indexed interest potential, and protection.
Tax Deferral
Under current federal income tax law, any interest earned in your fixed index annuity contract is tax-deferred. You don't have to pay ordinary income taxes on any taxable portion until you begin receiving money from your contract. Withdrawals are taxed as ordinary income and, if taken prior to age 59½, a 10% federal additional tax may apply.
Indexed Interest Potential
Fixed index annuities provide an opportunity for potential interest growth based on changes in one or more indexes. Because of this potential indexed interest, FIAs provide a tailored potential for accumulation. And since the interest your contract earns is tax-deferred, it may accumulate assets faster. In addition to potential indexed interest, FIAs can offer you an option to receive fixed interest.
Fixed index annuities offer you a level of protection you may find reassuring. That protection can benefit you in three separate ways:
- Accumulation: Your principal and credited interest are protected.
- Guaranteed Income: You can be protected from the possibility of outliving your assets.
- Legacy: If you pass away before annuity payments begin, a fixed index annuity may help you provide for loved ones.

How much weight will a MagTrim® magnet hold?
Because we manufacture various sizes of crystals ( some are over 13 oz in weight), we utilize (4) different sizes of magnets. We utilize 4 mm, 6 mm, 8 mm, and 10 mm magnets in all of our MagTrim® designs as determined by the size of the crystal or ornament. The smaller the magnet, the smaller the crystal or ornament it will be attached to. Our largest, 10 mm magnet, will support up to 1 lb of weight when attached to a SECURE surface.
What types of metals will a MagTrim® attach to?
MagTrims® instantly adhere to iron based metals such as iron, nickel, cobalt and tin as well as alloys such as steel.
What types of metals will a MagTrim® NOT attach to?
MagTrims® will NOT attach to bronze, copper, aluminum, or brass.
Will the MagTrim® magnet ever lose its "magnetism?"
No. NdFeB magnets like those used in a MagTrim® will ONLY lose their magnetism if exposed to a high temperature of 1414 °F.
Will the magnets on my MagTrims® rust?
No. Our neodymium magnets are plated in nickel, which is corrosion resistant.However, we recommend keeping MagTrim® crystals and ornaments out of high humidity situations so as to minimize the risk of corrosion.
How do I clean my crystal or glass MagTrims®?
We advise using a damp cloth to wipe the charm clean. We have heard reports of customers "sticking" their MagTrims® in the dishwasher (they "stick" to the metal racks in the washer) but we do not recommend this method of cleaning!
Don't Forget!
MagTrim's feature a patented MAGNETIC TIP! Simply touch to metal and they instantly stick!

Step 1: Take four (4) color photographs of the horse which clearly indicate all identifying markings from the front, rear and both sides. If no identifying markings are present, please submit a fifth (5th) photograph of a close-up of the face indicating all cowlicks present.
Step 2: For breeding stock, check for the presence of a tattoo number on the inside upper lip and enter it on the Identity Confirmation slip of the sampling kit. As horses age, the tattoo may become illegible. Please include as much of the tattoo as you can determine.
Step 3: Using a clean mane comb, isolate approximately 50 hairs from the mane at the base of the neck (a small grouping of hair approximately the diameter of a pencil). Grasp the mane close to the neck and pull quickly so the roots are included in the sample. DO NOT CUT THE HAIR WITH SCISSORS. For best results, obtain a sample while the mane is completely dry and free of moisture.
Step 3 continued: The hair sample MUST include the hair roots. The genetic material for testing is located in the roots of the hair shaft making it imperative the roots of the hair shaft are included with the sample.
Step 9: Put the sample into the pre-addressed envelope attached to the bottom of the kit. Add postage and mail.
Is this enough information?
Yes, please return me to the last page I visited.
No, I'd like to fill out a feedback form and receive additional help.

Here, above, is the latest from Ted Bastien's Bugsport! (My deep thanks to Ted for this amusing cryptocartoon.)
About Loren Coleman
Loren Coleman is one of the world's leading cryptozoologists, some say "the" leading living cryptozoologist. Certainly, he is acknowledged as the current living American researcher and writer who has most popularized cryptozoology in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
Starting his fieldwork and investigations in 1960, after traveling and trekking extensively in pursuit of cryptozoological mysteries, Coleman began writing to share his experiences in 1969. An honorary member of Ivan T. Sanderson's Society for the Investigation of the Unexplained in the 1970s, Coleman has been bestowed with similar honorary memberships of the North Idaho College Cryptozoology Club in 1983, and in subsequent years, that of the British Columbia Scientific Cryptozoology Club, CryptoSafari International, and other international organizations. He was also a Life Member and Benefactor of the International Society of Cryptozoology (now-defunct).
Loren Coleman's daily blog, as a member of the Cryptomundo Team, served as an ongoing avenue of communication for the ever-growing body of cryptozoo news from 2005 through 2013. He returned as an infrequent contributor beginning Halloween week of 2015.
Coleman is the founder in 2003, and current director of the International Cryptozoology Museum in Portland, Maine.

Prayer for Rescue from Persecutors
1A prayer of David.
Hear, LORD, my plea for justice;
pay heed to my cry;
Listen to my prayer
from lips without guile.
2From you let my vindication come;
your eyes see what is right.
3You have tested my heart,
searched it in the night.a
You have tried me by fire,
but find no malice in me.
My mouth has not transgressed
4as others often do.
As your lips have instructed me,
I have kept from the way of the lawless.
5My steps have kept to your paths;
my feet have not faltered.b
6I call upon you; answer me, O God.
Turn your ear to me; hear my speech.
7Show your wonderful mercy,
you who deliver with your right arm
those who seek refuge from their foes.
8*Keep me as the apple of your eye;
hide me in the shadow of your wings
9from the wicked who despoil me.c
My ravenous enemies press upon me;d
10*they close their hearts,
they fill their mouths with proud roaring.
11Their steps even now encircle me;
they watch closely, keeping low to the ground,
12Like lions eager for prey,
like a young lion lurking in ambush.
13Rise, O LORD, confront and cast them down;
rescue my soul from the wicked.
14Slay them with your sword;
with your hand, LORD, slay them;
snatch them from the world in their prime.
Their bellies are being filled with your friends;
their children are satisfied too,
for they share what is left with their young.
15I am just—let me see your face;
when I awake, let me be filled with your presence.e
* [Psalm 17] A lament of an individual unjustly attacked. Confident of being found innocent, the psalmist cries out for God's just judgment (Ps 17:1–5) and requests divine help against enemies (Ps 17:6–9a). Those ravenous lions (Ps 17:9b–12) should be punished (Ps 17:13–14). The Psalm ends with a serene statement of praise (Ps 17:15). The Hebrew text of Ps 17:3–4, 14 is uncertain.
* [17:8] Apple of your eye…shadow of your wings: images of God's special care, cf. Dt 32:10; Prv 7:2; Is 49:2.
* [17:10–12, 14] An extended metaphor: the enemies are lions.
b. [17:5] Ps 18:36; Jb 23:11–12.
c. [17:9–12] Ps 10:9; 22:14, 22; 35:17; 58:7; Jb 4:10–11.
d. [17:9] Ps 36:8; 57:2; 61:5; 63:8; 91:4; Dt 32:10; Ru 2:12; Zec 2:12; Mt 23:37.

Unfortunately once an order is placed I can not change or cancel the order. I ship out of two warehouses and my warehouse teams are super speedy and often have orders processed within minutes of your order. Once an order is placed it is subject to the original return policy.
If a shipment is unable to be delivered or the customer chooses to return to sender, the customer is responsible for any fees or costs of the return and the original shipping costs. The total amount will be deducted from the customer's refund. Please be sure your address is correct when placing your order. See more about our shipping policies here.
Sale items, including items in the "Last Chance Sale Collection" as well as all sales or promotions are final sale and cannot be returned or exchanged. Coupon codes such as the 10% coupon for signing up to the Atomic Wildflower newsletter, free shipping promos or gifted email promo codes are not included or considered "Sale Items". Shoot me a message or an email if you're unsure about your discount anytime! Please be certain before purchasing sale items. I am happy to answer any and all questions prior to purchase of sale items so you can feel secure in any final sale purchase! Just shoot me an email :D
Items must be in new, unused, and in sellable condition with hygienic lining in place, if applicable. I suggest trying bottoms on over underwear too to avoid any return issues. Swimsuits and swimsuit bottoms returned without the hygienic liner intact and in place will be returned to you.
Shoes must be in their original box or bag and unworn free of all things mentioned above. Please try on your shoes inside on carpet wearing socks for a super awesome, easy return process :) Please do not tape up or put a label on the original shoebox. The shoebox (for shoes that come in original box packaging) must be in tact to receive a refund.
Due to the nature of inventory stock and items selling quickly I can't always guarantee availability for exchanges. Instead I offer straight refunds so if you're hoping to exchange for a new size you will be able to PURCHASE your exchange if it is in stock. I do my best to carry enough inventory to meet demand but sometimes items do sell out fast. If you would like to ensure you are able to secure the item you wish to exchange for you may simply purchase it ahead and I will refund your return once I receive it :D
Due to hygiene reasons, accessories such as hats, headbands, and jewelry as well as intimates such as bralettes are final sale only.
I do my very best to inspect all items before heading your way but if for any reason there is a defect of some kind I may have missed, I will cover return shipping and get you refunded as soon as I receive your return. Just select "Item is defective" when you fill out the returns form below and a return shipping label will be issued to you.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Items will be inspected once received and if no defect is found you will be refunded minus the cost of the return shipping label. Returns are still subject to the 14 day return policy.
1. Initiate your return by filling out the form in the customer return portal.
2. Package your return up all perfect and mail it to:
Atomic Wildflower
89 Babbling Brook Road
Torrington CT 06790
.......and that's it!!! Returns will be processed within 2 business days upon receiving your item. Reminder, any items returned without approval and/or outside the 14 day return window will be returned to you so be sure to fill out the above form and return promptly :)

When you don't have coverage, it's dangerous to go alone.
You understand that technology is critical to your company's success, but does your technology get the attention it deserves? If your in-house IT staff is overburdened with support work, they may find it difficult to keep up. This, in turn, puts the average employee in an unenviable position of having to troubleshoot the various common issues that plague the use of their technology.
This is why InTegriLogic's co-managed IT is an exceptionally useful service, especially for small and medium-sized businesses that may have seen enough growth that have developed the need for more IT support. SMBs often don't have a budget flexible enough to onboard more trained IT personnel, so it makes more sense to outsource certain elements of your IT maintenance to other trained personnel. Additionally, with our certified technicians, you'll gain skilled IT professionals to depend on when the time comes to integrate new procedures or resolve tricky issues.
Improve Your Business Operations
Scalable Co-managed IT services give your organization options.
Technology support is a field that requires vast amounts of knowledge that only comes from experience. If your team is busy integrating new changes to your organization's technology, some of the support might get put off, or go completely unresolved. This is particularly detrimental to your business' network security. If patches aren't issued regularly, your systems will quickly grow outdated and be vulnerable to a host of online threats.
Through our powerful remote monitoring and management solution, we can automate necessary security upgrades so when you integrate a co-managed IT situation, like the one InTegriLogic offers, you gain the expertise necessary to keep your network secure. With our comprehensive support services, your in-house team benefits from our technicians' extensive knowledge in managing business technology.
Reliability and Accessibility
Give your team the powerful options InTegriLogic offers.
You might recall moments when an employee's absence is felt around the office due to an increased workload. This can be a major setback, even if they're only gone for a day. Our co-managed platform makes planning for vacations and paid time off easier.
Co-managed IT provides the availability to dedicated IT professionals that mitigate downtime-causing circumstances, whether your in-house IT staff is absent from the office, or not. In this way, InTegriLogic provides your staff powerful support options when their technology is on the fritz.
Cost-Efficient and Predictable
Cut your technology support costs with InTegriLogic's IT services
You already know that co-managed IT is like hiring new personnel, but it comes without the hefty operational expenses that are associated with hiring new staff. Our services are scalable and delivered at an affordable flat rate, making them ideal for just about any budget.
Unlike your typical break-fix IT, our co-managed IT solutions are designed to help you save money in the long run through preventative measures. We'll help your business get its technology issues resolved the first time, which in turn saves you more money on costly repair bills or replacement fees.
