what cracks me up about my cat is that she'll go to the scratching board and scratch away at it quite furiously when i've denied her something. i can almost hear her kitty cursing in frustration! lol
with that lovely blog page win I must go hubby is home and showered and as I have barely seen him all week (worked late each day and all weekend ) Dangerhand and I are going to have wine and cheese!
Hey Elena! I thought of you earlier when I was trolling around the Halloween store, not that I think you're creepy or anything, but I just saw a lot of stuff I thought you might like.
L's doing really well, Miranth. Her meds are finally good, and she's been feeling stronger, and is able to move without screeching in pain. O_o
Really, though, ever since she went on Lyrica she's been doing better. She's had to apply for disability, too, which she's not pleased about, but two drs and a nurse told her she can't be "fixed", just treated. Ah well, now we can sponge off the government together! :P
We're voting on whether to declaw my cat or not Elena, but I've already decided he gets to keep his claws. And I'm sorry you have arthritis BC, I've got spinal stenosis going on, so I get how the pain is kind ooky.
BC - That's terrible! - To have arthritis at your age. I know people can experience it at the site of healed injuries, even the very young. I hope you are able to take a nap? If not maybe an aspirin will help?
J - I am very, very glad that L is feeling better. And at least the government is good for something! It seems to be pretty corrupt and useless these days, so perhaps the government (as an institution) will receive some good karma for helping L. It needs it, if anything does! :)
Amy - There is virtually no public transit here in the Motor City! They want everyone driving cars. There are buses nearer the city, but I live very, very far from it.
I hope its just the fuel pump, and not the transmission! *praying*
My arthritis mostly generates in my legs, but usually in my right one. That's where I'm feeling it right now. I also got a bit of a sprained knee, so I'm wearing a brace as well.
Miranth, you can rest assured both L and I will do our best to make the politicians straighten up! Yeah, right. Grape vodka and Mountain Dew? Great galloping grandmas, woman, the thought of that, alone, makes my stomach lurch!
2.41, maybe that's all they have right now. There are such things as distance and time, and inability to travel. Or circumstances.
BC, do you take anything for yours? I have to use Tramadol (generic of Ultram) for the pain and Orphenadrine (muscle relaxer) for the flexibility. And then I usually go to bed for a while to get warm.
Are the honeys ergo and her husband? Or are we not supposed to ask? ;)
BC - Do massage or warm baths help? Also, I recently read that acupuncture does work for certain ailments. I wonder if it would work for arthritis pain?
J - Have you ever had a flare up in all areas at once? I can't imagine that kind of pain! And they need citizen oversight, that's for sure!
Amy - I think you're right, but they are working on electric cars or some such. They were just unveiling a prototype I think. No one liked the design changes that cut down on wind resistance for greater fuel efficiency. They want it to look cool.
Goodnight elena. J, I didn't take anything. I don't have any medication for it, so right now I just got a couple of layers of blankets and some socks on.
I usually add rubbing alcohol when I get it though.
Elena, OPJ, Ergo, L. BC, Amy, Teej,Miranth! How the hell are you guys!? Missed you all. Yeah, I dont care what anyone says I did. Haven't been on in a while. Hello all. Was out tonight and I had a few shots and a few Vo's and it was all good! Missed you all like mad. Hope you all have a great weekend.
Solly, Happy belated B'day to you too. My B'day too. People buying me shots is not good. Fuk it. It was all good.
Goodnight Amy, sweet dreams. Miranth, I tried a warm bath today, but it only managed to make me sweat a lot due to the warm weather we had. Tomorrow we're hitting 81 degrees.
Goodnight Amy! Happy Canadian Thanksgiving! Save me some stuffing!
Goodnight Elena! We'll talk to you tomorrow, I promise.
Miranth, most of my joints carry a dull ache all the time. I consider it a good day if that's the worst I get. You just get used to it. You try to decrease the amount of activity that hurts the worst--like TYPING!--and just go on about your day.
BC, try some ibuprofen, it'll help take down the swelling. And heating pads.
Anon, I understand what you're saying. No one ever said love was easy. In fact, it's one of the trickiest things to "do" b/c you're never prepared for it, and it makes you act goofy. :D
BC - We accidentally left the heat on, so it was very hot here, too. You should try some pain medication to make you comfortable if it persists. Acetaminophen or ibuprofen are pretty good at countering muscle-achy type pain, I think.
81? Given that the car is out of commission, I am thankful that it will be a good day for a bike ride!
Goodnight BC! (though I don't think that should be a difficult choice - Dumb and Dumber has the distinction of being the only movie that I ever walked out of! :)
Hey Bc, Miranth, Op J Thanks. No really I am fine. I have always been able to remember everything I have done. Not that bad. Have a good evening/day everyone.
How is Amy? Hope she is ok. Miss her too. Op J, say Hi to L, hope she is feeling better soon. How are you feeling? Better I hope.
Whenever you feel like you can't hold your head up, Whenever you feel no one listens, Or cares, Or wants you to succeed, Remember that I am here for you. Remember I believe in you, Remember I love you. You are one of the strongest people I know, One of the most caring, One of the most selfless. You can surmount any obstacle you encounter, You can make anything you want come true-- If you follow your heart and your soul And tell your mind to rest for a while. Logic is not always the answer. Sometimes you have to go with the love.
So I watched some more horror movies tonight and I want to tell you about them. I’ll be brief, I promise. The first was “Drive In”. Wow, was this one bad. No, not a good/bad movie it was just plain bad. I mean really the tag line for this hacker was “Drive In and Hide.” Seriously wouldn’t “Drive In and Die” be a bit better? The movie just plain sucked and not in a good way.
The second movie was “Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon.” Not long ago an anon here suggested the movie so I got a copy. Well anon, whoever you are, thank you. I love, love, love this movie. Hell, since “Halloween” is one of my all time favorites this movie had me from the start. There are so many great references to horror movies in this and the actor who portrays Leslie was wonderful. Love the Paradise Lost joke and his prerequisite for pets. Since I’ve seen so many horror movies I can’t say I was shocked by the twist but that was okay. And the very end? Loved it. I’m definitely gonna watch this one again.
The rest of my day was busy with work, nothing new there. I did have some fun at Target. My mom wanted to see your painting. So I decided that I would just make a copy of it. Okay, I’ve never done this before but Fred and I thought we’d just put it on a disk and use the photo maker. So we get to Target, read the instructions and put in the disk. Oh hell, when the screen read, “do you want to print “combustible_cock” we looked at each other and burst out laughing. Well, I just shook my head and said that I indeed did want to do just that. Then I had to tell it what size I wanted “combustible_cock”. Wow, that was totally an “insert joke here” moment. Anyway, I got it printed and showed mom. She said to tell Mayo she liked it. So Mayo, Mom likes your work.
Tomorrow is the day I do all the outside Halloween decorating for Mom’s house. Hopefully I won’t fall off the porch railing. Yeah, I’ve done that. At least the weather is supposed to be nice. So have you done any decorating for Halloween? Really think you should just to get into the spirit of things. Oh I know you should totally write a horror short story for us. Yep, a scary bedtime story. Be thinkin’ on that, okay?
Elena miss you much. Hope you and your Mom are ok. You are a special person.
I haven't stayed up this long in forever. ha!
MAyo, take care of yourself and your lovlies. They aren't here for nothing you know that right? You better. Not scolding or preaching or anything. Just pointing out some facts. I do not warm up to people too easily. Took me a long time. You have some loyal and genuine people here who care about you. Remember to notice and appreciate that. You never know how long that love will be extended to you. Can be retracted at anytime. Appreciate what you have while you have it.
It can all be gone in a heartbeat. What am I? I know, just an anon. Oh well. Too bad. Truth is truth. Goodnight. :)
Hear the sound The angels come screaming Down your voice I hear you’ve been bleeding Make your choice They say you’ve been pleading Someone save us
Heaven help us now Come crashing down And hear the sound As your falling down
And at this old hotel But I can’t tell if I’ve been breathing or sleeping or screaming or waiting For the man to call or maybe All of the above Cause mostly I’ve been sprawled on these cathedral steps While spitting out the blood and screaming Someone save us
Heaven help us now Come crashing down And hear the sound As your falling down
And will you pray for me Make them say your name Will you lay for me And make a saint of– ‘Cause I’ll give you all the nails you need Cover me in gasoline Wipe away those tears of blood again And the punch line to the joke is asking Someone save us
Heaven help us now Come crashing down And hear the sound As you fall
(Overlay of these two verses) You don’t know a thing about my sins How the misery begins You don’t know So I’m burning, I’m burning You don’t know a thing about my sins How the misery begins You don’t know So I’m burning, I’m burning, I’m burning, I’m burning
And would you pray for me And make me say your name And will you lay for me And make a saint of me ‘Cause I’ll give you all the nails you need Cover me in gasoline again
oh elena! I have Behind the mask lined up for tonight or tomorrow! I;m glad you liked it too the anon made me really keen and I am really looking forward to seeing it now
Miranth Dangerhand came from me saying he doesn't wear a wedding ring as he'd have to wear it on his right hand (due to injury on his left ) and I said 'he'd have to wear it on his right hand, which is dangerous" so J said "oh his right hand is dangerous hey??' thus Dangerhand!
I am really soaked,it started pouring with rain and the gutter was overflowing o I took off outer clothing , put on raincoat and get the ladder and climbed up to clear it so I am off for very nice warm shower
Anon - I did come to realize how important it is to trust one's intuition recently. The problem is that mine is very vague (on the internet, particularly) I can only tell if people mean well, or not, as the case may be.
A lot of people here have good intentions toward others. This, I know. :)
ergo - It rains a lot, down there, at least recently. I think I recall you saying that the 'winter' is really just a rainy season, if I remember correctly?
no mira opposite way around winter is the dry and summer is the rain,which is what we are heading into now but we have had a lot of rain this year, hopefully it'll continue esp down south, they still have a major problem with the dams supplying the population really low
But that's good, then ergo. We had many drought issues in the west over the summer in the US, with large scale fires resulting, so a lack of water is no little matter, in not so obvious ways as well!
So I had a crap horror movie to offer up (especially if ya lookin Elena!), with little baby Brad Pitt, and the chick from that really Really terrible Toyland with Keanu and Drew... and it's turns out that the character that everyone is cruely accusing of being the killer -actually is....
um, the killer. So yea, it sucks. But in that fun kind of "wow, look at his hair" kind of way.
I thought that was really important to put out there tonight. But then I forgot the tittle. It's something really literal. Like Slash! Or Cut! Or ya know, other literal painful and iconic things..
this afternoon i was sitting in the guest room (i kind of camp out on the floor between the wall and bed. that's where i have my lunch and spend the afternoons reading and drawing. it's almost a fort. *grin*), and i got up to close the window.
as i did, i looked outside, naturally, and something strange happened. or maybe it wasn't really strange, but the scene just grabbed me. it's very similar to the one i drew for you for the anniversary, trees near in the yard and woods across the field. in that moment, all the colors out there and the harmony of the scene just rushed me and took me by the throat and i had a sudden urge to just do something, anything! draw, write, travel, just energy that needed to be passed through me and along.
to be part of the circuit.
oh. i only realized that's what that was the moment before i wrote that sentence here, just now. to be part of the flow.
i've had moments like that before -- and they always seem to come at times when i can't do anything, when i'm on a bus, or at work, or like today, marooned in the boonies of kentucky (beautiful though they may be). maybe they're reminders, or the twitchings of my spirit.
i hope to be able to become someone who can act on those moments, who can jump up and submerge myself in the pull of that electric tide, whenever it calls.
i will be.
mayo, i think from what you've written here you are that kind of person, at least sometimes. give me a hint, won't you?
good night, friend. sleep well and may tomorrow be bright.
I can't watch horror movies - I get jumpy and nervous and find that I didn't really enjoy myself. Sometimes I even feel pain where the victim gets injured. Yeah, I know I am a wuss, but I like to think of it as empathic :D
That Leslie Vernon movie really sounds good though. Does it have a lot of gore, though? :/
You can set a place for me Ergo! But I am afraid that I spoiled my appetite with cookies :) What are we having?
I'm kinda meh tonight, but thank you for asking none the less! How are you doing? I didn't back read too much. ...Well, I did -but I thought better on it and stopped! Yikes.
I am not so good with the horror myself. Unless things tend to blow up in the film. Then I'm down! Blow the aliens up! Blow the ghost's up! Blow the bad guys up!! ;p I get scared from the stupidest shit in movies. Just the stupidest shit.. (So don't feel bad!) But I know this about myself, and yet... I watch. It's kinda sick actually!
Ergo, I am full. But thank ya kindly for the offer! Can I just sit at the table with you all? (or would that be awkward for me to watch??) ;)
Lewis when I was at Target getting my cock pic I looked at the Halloween stuff. Yeah, I know that sounded really wrong but I just don't care. I'm tired and it's very late.
Anyway, I bought this tombstone that has "blood" dripping down inside and talks.
ah ha ha (we kinda knew that elena.) ;) But I think we all rather love that gorey little heart of yours.
I'm sorry but, who is Leslie Vernon?? I feel like a twit here with that one! And I thought (according the masses and masses of attention - Oh wait, just answered my question! Ha!) I was gonna ask why the Twilight serious was popular if it wasn't any good... masses. Meh, nevermind!
Elena, I like suspense, or a well contrived plot, so I thought I might like the L Vernon one? It may not be too gory for me then, because even if you are warped :) I am expert at shielding my eyes - twisted boyfriends. :)
I like reading about your halloween preparations. It gets me in the 'spirit'! Sorry about the awful pun :)
Lewis - It sounds like we are a lot alike when it comes to watching scary movies! I don't think ergo would mind if you just joined us for conversation. :)
I love the Tim Burton kind of creepy aesthetic, lewis, does target have any of that kind of thing?
Hey Elena, will you print a pic of Mayo's cock for me? I want to show my mom too..
;)
He loves it, we know it.
Dude that is awesome Elena! It drips blood And talks!? What does it say!?? Does it have a spooooky voice? I was madly in love with these little skeleton and mutilcolored pumpkin lights. They were made out of that weird pokey, squishy plastic stuff. All Neon! Oh yea! It was like an act of god to step away...
And Tj/Miranth -I have many adventures all the time. I go everywhere. I see everything. Do anything I desire, every whim, every moment one comes. In my head. So again, don't feel bad! I think we are all in that boat. We want too -we really do, but something keeps coming up and keeps us for going for "...." I think we should all just chuck it all and run for "...." At least once this month! ;p
My dear Miranth -Target has Everything. It's fucking awesome. :) Just go! They have a little of everything. That's where we frequent for most of our home needs. Eww, that sounded rather like an add didn't it? I should get paid for that! Their adds really are just awful though. Wow.
Oh and tim Burton is just insane. And I love him for it! He has 'whoa!' hair. So cute. And that whole genius thing.. Have ya heard he is making a new Alice In Wonderland!? I believe the mighty Johnny Scissorhands is going to be the Mad Hatter. Should be pure grand insane fun and beauty!
And yes! We are very much alike! It's comforting actually! Not too many that seem to get me out in the world! ;p
We ♥ you too Ergo!! Enjyo ya dinner!! Hope to catch ya later! kiss!
Oh holy crap I have to get up in a few hours. I really should try to sleep. The problem is I know if I go to bed what I’ll do. There is a window at the foot of the bed so I’ll move my pillow down so I can lie looking out the window. I love listening to the night sounds and I love the feel of the night air. Problem is I won’t sleep. Maybe I should try the sofa but then I’ll stare at the ceiling fan and try to count the blades as it goes round and round.
When I try to sleep all the things I haven't thought of during the day suddenly pop up.
Cutting Class! Holy shit Elena! I found the tittle!! Huzzah!! So you have to rent that one, unless you have local cable -then I am sure you have seen it at four in the morning.. ;p
Anyway, I have to be off loves! It was really nice to chat with ya tonight! (However short!) I miss the affection in this place. I hope it stays and I hope it spreads!! -Ooh, that almost sounded dirty.
ha, cool. ;D
Love to you guys! Be well! I hope to catch ya again soon. kiss <333
Oops sorry Elena! I am slow! (ha, in more ways than one!) ;) I hope you get some real rest Sainty -do whatever you think you make you must comfortable. Just try it! If not, then -heh, oldies but goldies methods!
Again, Goodnight Miranth and Ergo too! If you two come back by -was glad to have caught ya! -loves
I have to go to target soon, anyway lewis, but your ad might convince me to go sooner, (when I get my car fixed, that is).
And it is comforting that we have similar feelings about experiences! :) I only just realized though we had talked before about things and always agreed. I think this is better than the real world anyway. In the real world I can't go anywhere without transportation, but I can always visit here. :)
I'll have to look up the new Tim Burton. Alice reminds me of drafting class because we had to practice writing with passages from it :) I hadn't thought of that in ages!
Elena, I will look for it when I go to my target. I want to see what the blood looks like. I am warped, too! :D
OK, I am going now, the Golden Compass awaits. But I wanted to respond to this:
censorship offends me.
October 11, 2008 7:20 PM
Censorship offends me too, except when messages are left to deliberately cause pain to others. An example would be racial epithets spray painted on someone's property to intimidate people.
If seemingly painful messages are meant to encourage people to reflect on their assumptions, however, I find censorship offensive, in those cases - and especially where the recipients of the message are aware of the creator's intent.
I can't help but feel there is a difference. And if I am wrong, so be it.
That being said, I still don't have the heart to read back, whatever the commenters' intentions were.
Mayo - Thanks for this place. I created my very own TODD up above.
:)
OK, now I am being silly and will take my ass off to bed! :D
Enjoy the rest of your weekend everyone!
♥
And thank you for keeping me company. I actually forgot that I missed the party. :)
Vroooooooooom indeed! The last 7 laps, OMGosh! And 3 times in a row for Lowndes!! Fabulous driving! And go Ford! Thanks for the salute. I did a big telepathic cheer for you when I got back from the airport! =) After having missed the first 57laps. >_< Can't wait for next year. =)
Mayo, Your fingernails. O_o *tsk tsk* 5 days later and still dirty! ;) You know that paint is going to be hard to get out from under those nails, don't you? Hmmm. I might be able to help with that. Don't worry. I have a gentle touch. ;)
I just watched Behind the Mask! What a great little movie!! So original and clever, and like Elena said nice little homages to other classics. I really enjoyed it, Thanks so much for suggesting it :)
Mayo “Thousands of candles can be lit from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared.” Nothing is ever lost by being the best you can be, by lighting even the smallest spark in another. You never know when the person waiting for that tiny flame may cross your path, so don't be afraid to share good things with all you meet, even briefly. You just may be the one. Wishing you trust, friendship, optimism and goals much love EP xx
SS “All that we are is the result of what we have thought. The mind is everything. What we think we become.” So many times we can become limited by our visions of ourselves. Our beliefs of what we can or can't do, what we do or don't deserve, what we should or shouldn't be. We must all remember that we are the result of our own minds. Experiences occur but it is how we choose to react that creates the person we are. The victor or the victim, the saint or the sinner, the inspiration or the disincentive. I hope you always choose the reaction that creates in you the most positive change. Not always easy but we can never change others, only ourselves, and by example perhaps spur them to think differently of themselves too. The more good we can do in the world the better it can be. Sending you grace, harmony and sincerity lotsa love EP xx
Good *insert time of day here* Mayo, SS, Ergo, Possum, Elena, Lewis, Miranth, Sweetcheeks, Amy, J, BI, TJ, RW, Carrie, anyone I may have missed; various anons, watchers and lurkers; all those behind the wheel and those behind the masks in the land o'blogbelieve!
How are you all today? Happy, able to chew, not sneezing, fever free and planning to do something more exciting than lying on the sofa all day! I'm going to miss The Fisherman's Festival today.
*pouts*
Cest la vie!
*end pout*
BI!!!!!!! A very happy (belated, oops) birthday to you! How are you? I missed ya! I hope you're hangover free today.
Ergo and Possum: Craig Lowndes and Jamie Wincup for Ford, team Vodophone WON!!! HOORAY!!!! Ummm... Who are they? I require visual aid since I don't know who the heck ya'll are talking about! ;) *smoooooooooch*
Miranth: I hope you're have sweet dreams! Or naughty dreams. Whichever is your preference this morning! :D
Sweetcheeks: How are you feeling? Is that nasty bug all gone, yet? I hope so!
Lewis: Did Dave give you my message? I love the fact that he comes when asked to do so! Just like you! I love ya, Lewis (and Dave too)!
J and L: Guess who I get to see play, LIVE ~ FINALLY? Guess, guess, guess? Oh, a hint might help. HINT: I introduced you to one of their songs and you LOVED it!

Hi PJ, MissT, Poofed Chameleon, Magic Pie, SC and Mel!
Well, I see more of the same bullshit went on here last night. People who are at DM or are not at DM got accused again. Repeat much?
Lemme see if I can keep this all straight...
Smoke attacked Amy at her blog.
The Porch people were anoning at Mayo's to slam Amy.
Porch people ruined the blog by monopolizing the conversation.
There is some hidden meaning to every post at DM and The Raconteurs song lyrics.
The picture of Shaunette and othere things were taken down at DM and replaced with our Disney World pic, because after all, it's to get Mayo's attention, right? We're attention whore's like that.
Our convo's get copied and pasted and our time monitored because we are obviously plotting to destroy the whole world, one blog at a time.
oh and my personal favorite...
Poetry is evil.
Does that pretty much cover it? I mean I'm sure I could go on and on about how pathetic and ugly and terrible and spiteful we all are, but I'm not sure if that's spamming up the blog or not.
I'm still a little fuzzy on the blog rules.
Could you people that have a problem with me do me a favor and bring it to DM or email me or take it my blog?
Dude, sorry, again. I woke up and read that stuff and you know some days it bothers me and some days not. Today, it did and I had to respond. Is that engaging? Probably. But damn, pinch, poke, punch and provoke me enough and you're bound to get a rise. So yeah, I'm not proud that I let some of this stuff get to me. I try to keep it all in perspective, but lines blur and I find myself stumbling in traffic just daring a fucking car to hit me.
I just apologize to you for having to do it here. I'm sure that I'm asking for answers that I will never get or never understand, but it's worth a shot.
Mayo, I hope your Sunday is beautiful. It's a dreary fall day here, rain, clouds, wind, but I don't mind. You're talking to a girl who seems to seek out the thunderstorm just so she can cry and write about being cold, wet, and alone.
For the record, I was around since Mayo's third (I think, maybe 4th) post. I was allowed at the secret meetings in various locations and I knew the passwords.
This place has always been full of a bunch of self-important exclusionary bitches, Mayo included. Secret clubs, secret handshakes, secret meeting places...it's all very reminiscent of middle school. You get a bunch of people together who were excluded during their formative years and they often try to relive that time period and make themselves feel better by forming their own little exclusive groups.
This place is fascinating to watch, but you can't take anything here seriously.
Walk through your day slowly. Never forget that this day, these moments, once gone become memories. They are your past in the making. Waste not a single second on regret for what has passed. The past can't be changed only remembered. Live today knowing that it too will fade into a memory. Make that memory one you will cherish. Walk through your life knowing that you are never alone. Walk through your life knowing that you are loved.
people are here because they have a crush on gerard and they hate the fact that the people that don't have a crush on gerard are the people Mayo chooses to acknowledge.

Underneath the shelf cracks appear in thick enamel In this laps excuse for wasting time I wait for signals shooting stars I’d scrape through every branch Coz I need to come down
Underneath the home I lived in I was a page in someone’s book And know one asked me why The page was fifteen stories high I’m underneath that home wondering why
All across the world There are things we need to forget and forgive Sometimes we have to try and shed the damage we don’t need Oh justice shake your head I’m wasting my time
We can break this drought Wanna tell ya I love ya I need ya in the night Sometimes I get so full I wanna tell ya I’m feeling alright I’m shaken to the bone And on my way home
Adjust an omen at the door Singing baby wont you please get a hold without it And while you sit there on the phone tell me baby I’m a liar you don’t seem to care what I care about and baby it’s a shame To be wasted
All across the world There are things we need to forget and forgive Sometimes we have to try and shed the damage we don’t need Oh justice shake your head I’m on my way home
Thanks for the B'day wishes everyone. Wendy thanks for the scrummy cake! Baby hangover, slight tummy ache. I'm okay. No turning my head upside down for me today.
FIMBLE STAR, you will be in my thoughts all damn day tomorrow. ♥ PINK BUBBLE. And once landed, you will be so happy. You deserve it. Always remember you are Ka Loke. ^_^
S(S)S, today I have this song for you: Trouble, by my Dad. I always kind of took it as my theme song. But it reminds me of you, too, because you're nice and kind, but you have edge. I always know edge when I sense it, and I see it in you. ^_^ So that is a song for you today. :D
Mayo, I have a poem for you today. I showed you this poem once long ago. It has long been one of my favorite poems ever, "A Woman's Last Word" by Robert Browning. But, the entire thing is not for me to quote for you; just the pertinent parts. :D
I.
Let's contend no more, Love, Strive nor weep: All be as before, Love, ---Only sleep!
II.
What so wild as words are? I and thou In debate, as birds are, Hawk on bough!
III.
See the creature stalking While we speak! Hush and hide the talking, Cheek on cheek!
IV.
What so false as truth is, False to thee? Where the serpent's tooth is Shun the tree---
V.
Where the apple reddens Never pry--- Lest we lose our Edens, Eve and I.
...
VII.
Teach me, only teach, Love As I ought I will speak thy speech, Love, Think thy thought---
...
IX.
That shall be to-morrow Not to-night: I must bury sorrow Out of sight:
...
The rest of is it just as awesome. But there are some lovely words for you today.
"Planet Earth" is on Discovery channel today, guys. Sweet!
even if no one gets me, if i'm the only one laughing at my jokes, i won't hide myself away from life. it's uncertain and it's dirty and it's fucking exciting, and i want to be a part of all of it.
it's too good to waste in hiding.
toujours February, 21, 2009 1:27 AM
heart full
Today on my way home from class, I stopped off at the petrol station for some petrol. I paid on my card which wasn’t a lot, and then as I was getting into my car, I saw an old man walking past the building. He had a red and green stripy jumper which was frayed at the ends. He was also wearing some jeans that were dirty and had holes all over.
I sat there and became intrigued by him because I didn’t know what he was doing, so as I sat there and watched him, he continued doing what he set out to do.
He walked past the trash cans and first picked out a cup with some drink still in it (one of the cups that you get from burger king that has coke in it). He then walked over to the next trash can and pulled out the end of a half eaten sandwich. In my shock horror, he ate it and then went to sit on the wall to drink the drink he had found.
I felt sad, I wanted to give him my last $4 that I had but I was told when I was younger that you should never give people money, you should give them something they need or can use because that way, if they had an addiction, they would not be able to use the money for their addiction. So I went into the shop and bought a chicken sandwich from their deli counter and then walked out of the building.
The guy was still sat at the wall drinking his drink so I walked up to him and asked him if he would like this sandwich. He thanked me and said that he was hungry.
I should of felt good after that, doing something for someone else but all I could think of is where his next meal will come from or where in fact he will sleep tonight.

It helped.
Jennicula,
Thank you for sharing your story. Although it only appeared briefly, I was lucky enough to have caught it.
Once upon a time, for me, that was the best part of this place...having my words related back to me from another's perspective.
And it never mattered to me who said it, just that it meant something to the writer.

Don't let anyone tell you how to live your life. Hold your head up high and be proud of who you are. If you've had a shitty day and you feel like people just don't want you to be happy, and when you find yourself struggling to make it through the day, just keep on believing and keep the faith. Also, from personal experience, don't push people away. When they say they want to help and that they are there for you, let them in. Believe me, I know how fucking scary that thought is, but don't shut others out.

Retro-spectacled
Sometimes, when you look back on stuff in your life, you know, the crap that makes you shake your head and say, "Holy shit, what the Hell was I thinking?" it's part of what makes you - you.
I'm not perfect by any stretch of the imagination. I have made small mistakes and really big, fucking scary mistakes. Would I change those mistakes and blunders?
No. Wanna know why?
Because they make me - me. They help make up the person that I am, what I've learned the hard way. Hopefully I've learned from my mistakes and have become a better person for it. And, hopefully I don't repeat those same mistakes. Although, sometimes I repeat variations of certain ones, but I'm working on that. :)

aloft
Blazing against the sun like locusts, samaras swarm the sky and skitter to an earthly end, dry like clever words. I want to make them fly up, flip heaven upside down and dance across the top of hell and sing your thoughts to the sound of thunder that you love so well, rip open the littered sky and bathe in the light or draw across the firmament the blanket of the night.
In only a day they have covered the ground, their brief flight yielding nothing permanent on infertile land, a fleeting moment of swarming glory that calls to mind our own short story: Diamonds and petals, the loom and the light, the inkdark moon, foxfire marsh, an open, waiting hand.
Clever winged seeds of childhood reminiscent-- and like the idiot grown-up heart, as stubbornly indehiscent.

Electric Blue
…today I saw a ulysses butterfly it was in our yard and settled to feed on our hibiscus. They really are fantastically beautiful things, the electric blue is amazing, however as they sit with their wings closed they are rather nondescript and dull. Sometimes people are like that, from the outside they seem unappealing but within there hides an amazing beauty for those lucky enough to see it. I hope you appreciate beauty in all things, and look for it perhaps where others miss it.

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL.
I read your post again and suddenly without warning memories of construction paper filled my head. I remembered all the lop-sided flowers my girls made when they were young. Bright blue, yellow and pink flowers that were cut out with blunt end scissors would fill the windows to decorate for Easter. An occasional bunny was attempted but those usually ended up looking like creatures from a horror movie. Flowers were so much easier. I can close my eyes and hear the paper being cut into petals. I can smell the Elmer’s glue squirted on in huge blobs to attach each misshapen petal to form the flowers. We had a huge arts and crafts box full of wonderful items just waiting for their imaginations to turn into something wonderful. In my mind I see my daughters, as they once were, small, blond little girls sitting on the floor surrounded by scraps of paper and other art supplies. They would create their masterpieces then proudly show each other. Oh and Lord the messes that would ensue if the glitter made an appearance. Now, the box is forgotten. I’m not really sure where it even is anymore. The few flowers so lovingly created that survived are faded and dusty and high on a shelf they sit. Time marches on, so many things get left behind.
Today was the first Easter I spent alone. I don’t think it really upset me until I remembered the construction paper flowers. Of course I understand that my daughters are growing up and have lives of their own. But understanding doesn’t make it any easier to accept. I miss my little girls in their frilly Easter dresses. I miss the laughter that filled the house when they found what the Easter Bunny left for them. And I miss making the damn flowers.

I wonder if you noticed all our friends playing Some had never tried before and the result was amazing.
Poems from the corner from the left and right We did our best to keep them flowing Late into this night.
If nothing else was accomplished I hope we made someone see How truly beautiful and amazing a poem can be.

my cats use the tree outside, or the wood garden borders

*giggles*

Yeah, Amy, I think that subtracts like a hundred dollars. I think neutering is almost reasonable at this new non posh vet we found.
what cracks me up about my cat is that she'll go to the scratching board and scratch away at it quite furiously when i've denied her something. i can almost hear her kitty cursing in frustration! lol

Spray bottles work wonders too.
with that lovely blog page win I must go
hubby is home and showered and as I have barely seen him all week (worked late each day and all weekend )
Dangerhand and I are going to have wine and cheese!
take care guys
see you tomorrow

O_O
Have a good day, EP :)
Have fun Ergo, tell him I said HI, and I think his accent is dreamy. :) And oh, your voice mail thingy never came through. :(
I'm gonna turn in now, I think.
Have a lovely evening, everyone :)
Night RW! Wish you lived closer so you could school us on how to make a skirt for a devil costume!
Hi ergo, carrie, TJ, RW, and Amy!
I vote no to declawing too! (Just make sure to trim the claws often so they are not too sharp.)
PS - I don't think I want to catch up! I read a bit at dinner time and accidentally left the computer on, but it looks depressing back there!
Goodnight RW! Sweet dreams. :)
Hey Miranth, I haven't talked to you in forever! And yeah, it was all same o same o nasty earlier.
Hiya Mira!
It is depressing back there, don't look to the past, enjoy the present!
-A
YAY CARRIE! Good choice, good choice. Neutering, yes. Declawing, no. Gho$t will love you for it. :)
see you ergo! and good night resurrected wreck, sweet dreams. :)
and hello miranth!
Goodnight RW. Hi miranth.
'Allo BC!
-A
Hello everyone
declawing makes me :(
hello elena. where do you stand on the clawing/declawing issue? (um, not as demanding a question as it sounds...)
J, can you oblige me by checking your mail?
-A
Goodnight RW! Good...um...HAVE FUN, ERGO!
Hi Miranth!
And Carrie, another plus for neutering: it cuts down on the risk of cancer. Always a good thing.
'Allo Elena!
Anon, I agree.
But, no declaw here. So be happy.
-A
i'll just tally your vote, anon. (makes me that way, too.)
And Carrie, another plus for neutering: it cuts down on the risk of cancer. Always a good thing.
damn! j., why didn't you tell me this about six years ago??
Hey Elena! I thought of you earlier when I was trolling around the Halloween store, not that I think you're creepy or anything, but I just saw a lot of stuff I thought you might like.
Hi amy and elena
Yes I can, Amy.
Hey Elena! How are you? Haven't talked to you in a few days. Need to catch up tomorrow. When's a good time for you?
Hi again BC!
Hi J! How's L?
Hi Elena!
*HUGS* BC! Are you feeling better?
carrie - Thanks I think I will skip it or go back when I feel up to it. Its good to 'see' you!
Sent you two, Amy. :)
Amy - I hear you! Iam already depressed. My engine is 'jumping' like an unbroken horse. It was very scary and I needed to have someone come rescue me.
I think I'll make some cookies and feel better. :)
My friend's calling me to see if I got home so I'll be back in a few.
Hi again J. *hugs miranth*
I'm okay, just a bit uncomfortable with this bout of arthritis. I'm trying to take a nap :/
Sorry TJ, I forgot. :( But now you know, for future kitty endeavors!
It also helps rabbits in the same way, both male and female. That's what we think L's bunny Maggie died of, but never knew for sure.
Carrie I am creepy. It's okay I'm in touch with my inner creepy.
What am I voting on, TJ?
Toujours said...
And Carrie, another plus for neutering: it cuts down on the risk of cancer. Always a good thing.
damn! j., why didn't you tell me this about six years ago??
Well, I think I know what Mister's doing next weekend! :D
-A
J, replied, but only once. I'm not that ambitious.
-A
L's doing really well, Miranth. Her meds are finally good, and she's been feeling stronger, and is able to move without screeching in pain. O_o
Really, though, ever since she went on Lyrica she's been doing better. She's had to apply for disability, too, which she's not pleased about, but two drs and a nurse told her she can't be "fixed", just treated. Ah well, now we can sponge off the government together! :P
Mira, that's awful to hear about your car. Do you have decent transit where you live?
-A
We're voting on whether to declaw my cat or not Elena, but I've already decided he gets to keep his claws. And I'm sorry you have arthritis BC, I've got spinal stenosis going on, so I get how the pain is kind ooky.
Craig Lowndes and Jamie Wincup for Ford, team Vodophone win Bathurst 2008!!!!!
bc, i wish there was something we could do to make your leg feel better.
sorry, i'm all over the place again.
Yay?!?
Thanks carrie. Sorry to hear about your pain :(
Well if your cat goes outside he should definitely get to keep his claws.
Just one back to you, Amy.
BC, I feel your pain. Truly. Where is your arthritis? Mine hits my hands, hips, knees, ankles, elbows, and probably my back and neck too. It SUCKS.
Like the Twilight series, or so I hear.
heehee
thought you all need to know that!
*vrooooooooooooooooom*
carrie I'll try again, but check your trash folder, they go there sometimes, it did for elena
let me know :)
HI elena
Hi miranth
back to well beer not wine, and cheese
yay!
Thanks TJ. No worries though. I've had it for more than a few years now, I'll deal with this bout somehow. But thanks anyways.
BC - That's terrible! - To have arthritis at your age. I know people can experience it at the site of healed injuries, even the very young. I hope you are able to take a nap? If not maybe an aspirin will help?
J - I am very, very glad that L is feeling better. And at least the government is good for something! It seems to be pretty corrupt and useless these days, so perhaps the government (as an institution) will receive some good karma for helping L. It needs it, if anything does! :)
Amy - There is virtually no public transit here in the Motor City! They want everyone driving cars. There are buses nearer the city, but I live very, very far from it.
I hope its just the fuel pump, and not the transmission! *praying*
Hi ergo! Enjoy your time with Nick Cage ;)
I think I'll make myself a drink, too - it will calm me down.
Anyone want grape vodka and Mountain dew? Its pretty good! I know a lot of you like less sweet drinks though, like TAB. *shudders* :)
hi honey
:)
i know you will be able to, bc. sending you healing vibes anyway!
~fuzzy warm healing vibes~
Mira, that really sucks. I think the Motor City will be the last to go green, huh?
J, got you back.
-A
elena - You are right. Pets that roam need claws to protect themselves. Even then they come home with injuries!
I gotta take myself to bed. I am falling asleep between comments. Goodnight, you guys.
That sucks indeed J :(
My arthritis mostly generates in my legs, but usually in my right one. That's where I'm feeling it right now. I also got a bit of a sprained knee, so I'm wearing a brace as well.
Goodnight Carrie!
-A
hello
♥♥
:)
good night carrie, sweet dreams!
:)
♥♥
Goodnight Carrie, good to see you.
Miranth, you can rest assured both L and I will do our best to make the politicians straighten up! Yeah, right. Grape vodka and Mountain Dew? Great galloping grandmas, woman, the thought of that, alone, makes my stomach lurch!
And no dissing the Tab! :P
Thanks for the healing vibes TJ :)
Miranth, yes, I shouldn't have it at my age, but I do :(
It's only uncomfortable for the fact that I have to wear fleece PJ's on a warm night. It sucks, but I don't have a choice.
Night Carrie
♥ + ♥ = ♥♥?
:)
J, back once more.
-A
I think it would be nice if the two of you meet and talk.
How can you say what you truly feel on a blog?
no ?
only ♥♥ and :)
(did you like your cookies?)
Night night carrie
Amy, return serve.
2.41, maybe that's all they have right now. There are such things as distance and time, and inability to travel. Or circumstances.
BC, do you take anything for yours? I have to use Tramadol (generic of Ultram) for the pain and Orphenadrine (muscle relaxer) for the flexibility. And then I usually go to bed for a while to get warm.
(i did)
it would be nice, wouldn't it?
♥♥
:)
Well, night guys. Take care
Goodnight carrie!
Are the honeys ergo and her husband? Or are we not supposed to ask? ;)
BC - Do massage or warm baths help? Also, I recently read that acupuncture does work for certain ailments. I wonder if it would work for arthritis pain?
J - Have you ever had a flare up in all areas at once? I can't imagine that kind of pain! And they need citizen oversight, that's for sure!
Amy - I think you're right, but they are working on electric cars or some such. They were just unveiling a prototype I think. No one liked the design changes that cut down on wind resistance for greater fuel efficiency. They want it to look cool.
J you may be right, just feel sad seeing these two apart.
I know how it feels unfortunately.
I gotta run too. A full day of cooking for me tomorrow! Happy Canadian Thanksgiving!
Goodnight Lovelies, Mayo and SS!
-A
Goodnight elena!
Was someone else eating cookies? I didn't finish making mine.
Goodnight elena. J, I didn't take anything. I don't have any medication for it, so right now I just got a couple of layers of blankets and some socks on.
I usually add rubbing alcohol when I get it though.
Goodnight amy
Happy Canadian Thanksgiving!
yes. it would be nice
:)
♥♥
Elena, OPJ, Ergo, L. BC, Amy, Teej,Miranth! How the hell are you guys!? Missed you all. Yeah, I dont care what anyone says I did.
Haven't been on in a while. Hello all.
Was out tonight and I had a few shots and a few Vo's and it was all good! Missed you all like mad.
Hope you all have a great weekend.
Solly, Happy belated B'day to you too. My B'day too.
People buying me shots is not good.
Fuk it. It was all good.
Wendy hugs!
good night elena, sweet dreams.
good night amyranth, happy thanksgiving!
Oh yeah Mayo. Your painting is abstract but ok. I am into abstract that much but I like it. The colors are cool.
Have a good one sweetie!
Goodnight Amy, sweet dreams. Miranth, I tried a warm bath today, but it only managed to make me sweat a lot due to the warm weather we had. Tomorrow we're hitting 81 degrees.
I use rubbing alcohol whenever I can.
BI - Happy Birthday! I am glad to see you enjoyed yourself ;)
I've missed you, too. :) I always remember that you give good advice!
Take care :)
Hey there B
♥fizzy happy♥
:)
hey happy birthday beloved imortal! has it been a good one?
Goodnight Amy! Happy Canadian Thanksgiving! Save me some stuffing!
Goodnight Elena! We'll talk to you tomorrow, I promise.
Miranth, most of my joints carry a dull ache all the time. I consider it a good day if that's the worst I get. You just get used to it. You try to decrease the amount of activity that hurts the worst--like TYPING!--and just go on about your day.
BC, try some ibuprofen, it'll help take down the swelling. And heating pads.
Anon, I understand what you're saying. No one ever said love was easy. In fact, it's one of the trickiest things to "do" b/c you're never prepared for it, and it makes you act goofy. :D
But it's good stuff.
BC - We accidentally left the heat on, so it was very hot here, too. You should try some pain medication to make you comfortable if it persists. Acetaminophen or ibuprofen are pretty good at countering muscle-achy type pain, I think.
81? Given that the car is out of commission, I am thankful that it will be a good day for a bike ride!
:)
:)
♥♥
:*
BI!!! You snuck in while I was writing! Happy Birthday, and where have you been, woman? *birthday hugs and kisses*
I won't ask HOW you've been, b/c I can see how you are RIGHT NOW. Have a feeling you won't remember much before now! heeheehee
Missed you ver' much. :D
Thanks guys :)
I think I'm gonna try to get some sleep, but I'm currently watching dumb and dumber, so it's a difficult choice :/
Anons I hope it all works out for you. I hope you have a chance to hold each other one day.
I also hope that your feelings are directed to the one it is truly meant to be directed to.
In this place you never know, I know that I could never be sure.
Goodnight BC! (though I don't think that should be a difficult choice - Dumb and Dumber has the distinction of being the only movie that I ever walked out of! :)
*hugs* and I hope you sleep well soon.
*psst*
BC: I'd pick sleeping, myself.
*tiptoes out of room*
Goodnight, BC, hope you get some rest and also that you feel better tomorrow.
*hands BC some Advil, some water, and another blanket*
I think I'm going to head out too, kids. It's so very late. Goodnight TJ, BI, Miranth, Lovey Anon/s, everyone and all!
Goodnight Mayo, hope you had a splendiferous day! I hope I spelled that right! Rest easy, my friend.
love, faith, hope, cookies, drag racing
:)
goodnight my sweet
♥♥
miranth
no, anons aren't me and Dangerhand, he's not big on the whole internet thing, plus we usually have enough together time in real life ;)
goodnight carrie and elena
and Happy Birthday BI!!!!
J - Then I appreciate your presence here all the more! :) Great minds think alike as to the Ibuprofen. :)
3:12 - I agree, as I am never sure about anything here! :) I am easily confused, though.
:D
Hey Bc, Miranth, Op J Thanks.
No really I am fine. I have always been able to remember everything I have done. Not that bad. Have a good evening/day everyone.
How is Amy? Hope she is ok. Miss her too.
Op J, say Hi to L, hope she is feeling better soon.
How are you feeling? Better I hope.
Goodnight J sweet dreams. And thank you for the advil and extra blankie.
Thanks miranth. I hope you and your niece are well? It's time for me to sign off as well. Goodnight and sweet dreams to you, tj, and ergo.
goodnight Bc hope the pain eases soon, lots of good suggestions
goodnight J sweet dreams
good night j. sweet dreams!
good night bc, sleep well and i hope you wake up in the morning feeling great. :)
Goodnight J, take care and be well. Easier said than done I know! And give L an extra hug from me! :)
ergo! That is how marriages last, enough together time (of good quality, of course!)
Where did 'dangerhand' come from? I must have missed something!
Goodnight J.
Bc hope you are feeling well soon.
Ergo!!!!!!!!!!!! Loves ya!
Miranth then you have company, I am always confused here, and I am not one to be easily confused!
Thanks Ergo for the Bday wishes. Sweet!
Dear SS,
Whenever you feel like you can't hold your head up,
Whenever you feel no one listens,
Or cares,
Or wants you to succeed,
Remember that I am here for you.
Remember I believe in you,
Remember I love you.
You are one of the strongest people I know,
One of the most caring,
One of the most selfless.
You can surmount any obstacle you encounter,
You can make anything you want come true--
If you follow your heart and your soul
And tell your mind to rest for a while.
Logic is not always the answer.
Sometimes you have to go with the love.
Goodnight, baby. I love you.
My heart to yours, always.
*sticks head out bedroom door*
Goodnight Ergo, aren't you supposed to be with ol' Dangerhand instead of with us? ;)
*goes back in room and shuts door*
Anon 3:22 - You made me giggle!
But its very true.
I just have to go with my gut feeling, but it doesn't really matter to me if I figure things out or not.
Its not the most important lesson here, I think.
Mayo
So I watched some more horror movies tonight and I want to tell you about them. I’ll be brief, I promise. The first was “Drive In”. Wow, was this one bad. No, not a good/bad movie it was just plain bad. I mean really the tag line for this hacker was “Drive In and Hide.” Seriously wouldn’t “Drive In and Die” be a bit better? The movie just plain sucked and not in a good way.
The second movie was “Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon.” Not long ago an anon here suggested the movie so I got a copy. Well anon, whoever you are, thank you. I love, love, love this movie. Hell, since “Halloween” is one of my all time favorites this movie had me from the start. There are so many great references to horror movies in this and the actor who portrays Leslie was wonderful. Love the Paradise Lost joke and his prerequisite for pets. Since I’ve seen so many horror movies I can’t say I was shocked by the twist but that was okay. And the very end? Loved it. I’m definitely gonna watch this one again.
The rest of my day was busy with work, nothing new there. I did have some fun at Target. My mom wanted to see your painting. So I decided that I would just make a copy of it. Okay, I’ve never done this before but Fred and I thought we’d just put it on a disk and use the photo maker. So we get to Target, read the instructions and put in the disk. Oh hell, when the screen read, “do you want to print “combustible_cock” we looked at each other and burst out laughing. Well, I just shook my head and said that I indeed did want to do just that. Then I had to tell it what size I wanted “combustible_cock”. Wow, that was totally an “insert joke here” moment. Anyway, I got it printed and showed mom. She said to tell Mayo she liked it. So Mayo, Mom likes your work.
Tomorrow is the day I do all the outside Halloween decorating for Mom’s house. Hopefully I won’t fall off the porch railing. Yeah, I’ve done that. At least the weather is supposed to be nice. So have you done any decorating for Halloween? Really think you should just to get into the spirit of things. Oh I know you should totally write a horror short story for us. Yep, a scary bedtime story. Be thinkin’ on that, okay?
Well take care.
Night Mayo
Elena (nope didn’t tell mom the name)
Elena miss you much. Hope you and your Mom are ok. You are a special person.
I haven't stayed up this long in forever. ha!
MAyo, take care of yourself and your lovlies. They aren't here for nothing you know that right? You better.
Not scolding or preaching or anything. Just pointing out some facts. I do not warm up to people too easily. Took me a long time. You have some loyal and genuine people here who care about you.
Remember to notice and appreciate that. You never know how long that love will be extended to you.
Can be retracted at anytime. Appreciate what you have while you have it.
It can all be gone in a heartbeat.
What am I? I know, just an anon. Oh well. Too bad. Truth is truth.
Goodnight. :)
Hear the sound
The angels come screaming
Down your voice
I hear you’ve been bleeding
Make your choice
They say you’ve been pleading
Someone save us
Heaven help us now
Come crashing down
And hear the sound
As your falling down
And at this old hotel
But I can’t tell if I’ve been breathing or sleeping or screaming or waiting
For the man to call or maybe
All of the above
Cause mostly I’ve been sprawled on these cathedral steps
While spitting out the blood and screaming
Someone save us
Heaven help us now
Come crashing down
And hear the sound
As your falling down
And will you pray for me
Make them say your name
Will you lay for me
And make a saint of–
‘Cause I’ll give you all the nails you need
Cover me in gasoline
Wipe away those tears of blood again
And the punch line to the joke is asking
Someone save us
Heaven help us now
Come crashing down
And hear the sound
As you fall
(Overlay of these two verses)
You don’t know a thing about my sins
How the misery begins
You don’t know
So I’m burning, I’m burning
You don’t know a thing about my sins
How the misery begins
You don’t know
So I’m burning, I’m burning, I’m burning, I’m burning
And would you pray for me
And make me say your name
And will you lay for me
And make a saint of me
‘Cause I’ll give you all the nails you need
Cover me in gasoline again
For Toujours.
oh elena! I have Behind the mask lined up for tonight or tomorrow! I;m glad you liked it too
the anon made me really keen and
I am really looking forward to seeing it now
Miranth
Dangerhand came from me saying he doesn't wear a wedding ring as he'd have to wear it on his right hand (due to injury on his left )
and I said 'he'd have to wear it on his right hand, which is dangerous"
so J said "oh his right hand is dangerous hey??'
thus Dangerhand!
I am really soaked,it started pouring with rain and the gutter was overflowing o I took off outer clothing , put on raincoat and get the ladder and climbed up to clear it
so I am off for very nice warm shower
you're welcome BI hope to chat again soon
Miranth you will find that your intuition is usually right indicator.
Anon - I did come to realize how important it is to trust one's intuition recently. The problem is that mine is very vague (on the internet, particularly) I can only tell if people mean well, or not, as the case may be.
A lot of people here have good intentions toward others. This, I know. :)
ergo - It rains a lot, down there, at least recently. I think I recall you saying that the 'winter' is really just a rainy season, if I remember correctly?
oh! thank you beloved imortal! the funny thing is, i'm actually listening to that tonight... *grin*
i really need to go to bed too.
good night beloved imortal, miranth, and ergo, and anon and lurkers.
sweet dreams all.
Sweet dreams TJ!
goodnight TJ sweet dreams
no mira opposite way around winter is the dry and summer is the rain,which is what we are heading into now
but we have had a lot of rain this year, hopefully it'll continue esp down south, they still have a major problem with the dams supplying the population really low
Well I totally got sidetracked by something shiny.
I should be working but I don't wanna.
I should be sleeping but I don't wanna.
I should be some place else but I don't wanna.
Don't wanna go, wanna stay.
hello again elena
smiles at elena. :)
Hello Ergo
Hello anon
I must have misremembered. :)
But that's good, then ergo. We had many drought issues in the west over the summer in the US, with large scale fires resulting, so a lack of water is no little matter, in not so obvious ways as well!
PS - Almond/butter cookies are damned good!
Hi elena!
I feel that way often too.
So I had a crap horror movie to offer up (especially if ya lookin Elena!), with little baby Brad Pitt, and the chick from that really Really terrible Toyland with Keanu and Drew... and it's turns out that the character that everyone is cruely accusing of being the killer -actually is....
um, the killer. So yea, it sucks. But in that fun kind of "wow, look at his hair" kind of way.
I thought that was really important to put out there tonight. But then I forgot the tittle. It's something really literal. Like Slash! Or Cut! Or ya know, other literal painful and iconic things..
I hope everyone is good!
<33
I'm getting dinner ready
want me to set you a place elena? anon? mira?
mayo,
this afternoon i was sitting in the guest room (i kind of camp out on the floor between the wall and bed. that's where i have my lunch and spend the afternoons reading and drawing. it's almost a fort. *grin*), and i got up to close the window.
as i did, i looked outside, naturally, and something strange happened. or maybe it wasn't really strange, but the scene just grabbed me. it's very similar to the one i drew for you for the anniversary, trees near in the yard and woods across the field. in that moment, all the colors out there and the harmony of the scene just rushed me and took me by the throat and i had a sudden urge to just do something, anything! draw, write, travel, just energy that needed to be passed through me and along.
to be part of the circuit.
oh. i only realized that's what that was the moment before i wrote that sentence here, just now. to be part of the flow.
i've had moments like that before -- and they always seem to come at times when i can't do anything, when i'm on a bus, or at work, or like today, marooned in the boonies of kentucky (beautiful though they may be). maybe they're reminders, or the twitchings of my spirit.
i hope to be able to become someone who can act on those moments, who can jump up and submerge myself in the pull of that electric tide, whenever it calls.
i will be.
mayo, i think from what you've written here you are that kind of person, at least sometimes. give me a hint, won't you?
good night, friend. sleep well and may tomorrow be bright.
LEWIS!!!! Hey, how are ya?
I can't watch horror movies - I get jumpy and nervous and find that I didn't really enjoy myself. Sometimes I even feel pain where the victim gets injured. Yeah, I know I am a wuss, but I like to think of it as empathic :D
That Leslie Vernon movie really sounds good though. Does it have a lot of gore, though? :/
You can set a place for me Ergo! But I am afraid that I spoiled my appetite with cookies :) What are we having?
Hey Lewis
How's it going?
Hey Miranth
Ergo what are we having?
Hiya MIRANTH!! :D
I'm kinda meh tonight, but thank you for asking none the less! How are you doing? I didn't back read too much. ...Well, I did -but I thought better on it and stopped! Yikes.
I am not so good with the horror myself. Unless things tend to blow up in the film. Then I'm down! Blow the aliens up! Blow the ghost's up! Blow the bad guys up!! ;p I get scared from the stupidest shit in movies. Just the stupidest shit.. (So don't feel bad!) But I know this about myself, and yet... I watch. It's kinda sick actually!
Ergo, I am full. But thank ya kindly for the offer! Can I just sit at the table with you all? (or would that be awkward for me to watch??) ;)
Howdy Elena!! <3
Did you see??? I had a horror movie for ya to seek and watch! Uh, can't remember the name though. So maybe, nevermind.. :(
How are ya?? Did you scope the Halloween Decs at Target!?? Are those isles not the coolest you have walked ever!!? It's like, beautiful there...
Miranth if you don't like horror movies you probably wouldn't like it. Not a lot of gore, well I didn't think so but I'm sorta warped.
TJ - I have that feeling very occasionally. If I act on it, I usually find that I learn something new or I meet someone fascinating.
It can be as simple as going somewhere unexpected (not necessarily far) spontaneously.
Its fun :) and others usually join me.
Lewis when I was at Target getting my cock pic I looked at the Halloween stuff. Yeah, I know that sounded really wrong but I just don't care. I'm tired and it's very late.
Anyway, I bought this tombstone that has "blood" dripping down inside and talks.
ah ha ha (we kinda knew that elena.) ;) But I think we all rather love that gorey little heart of yours.
I'm sorry but, who is Leslie Vernon?? I feel like a twit here with that one! And I thought (according the masses and masses of attention - Oh wait, just answered my question! Ha!) I was gonna ask why the Twilight serious was popular if it wasn't any good... masses. Meh, nevermind!
HI lewis!
can't stay - dinner time!
Love Ya!!
♥
Elena, I like suspense, or a well contrived plot, so I thought I might like the L Vernon one? It may not be too gory for me then, because even if you are warped :) I am expert at shielding my eyes - twisted boyfriends. :)
I like reading about your halloween preparations. It gets me in the 'spirit'! Sorry about the awful pun :)
Lewis - It sounds like we are a lot alike when it comes to watching scary movies! I don't think ergo would mind if you just joined us for conversation. :)
I love the Tim Burton kind of creepy aesthetic, lewis, does target have any of that kind of thing?
Hey Elena, will you print a pic of Mayo's cock for me? I want to show my mom too..
;)
He loves it, we know it.
Dude that is awesome Elena! It drips blood And talks!? What does it say!?? Does it have a spooooky voice? I was madly in love with these little skeleton and mutilcolored pumpkin lights. They were made out of that weird pokey, squishy plastic stuff. All Neon! Oh yea! It was like an act of god to step away...
And Tj/Miranth -I have many adventures all the time. I go everywhere. I see everything. Do anything I desire, every whim, every moment one comes. In my head. So again, don't feel bad! I think we are all in that boat. We want too -we really do, but something keeps coming up and keeps us for going for "...." I think we should all just chuck it all and run for "...." At least once this month! ;p
Sorry I am so slow tonight ladies!
Cool, elena! What does it say?
Edward Gorey stuff is cool too. Anything like that?
My dear Miranth -Target has Everything. It's fucking awesome. :) Just go! They have a little of everything. That's where we frequent for most of our home needs. Eww, that sounded rather like an add didn't it? I should get paid for that! Their adds really are just awful though. Wow.
Oh and tim Burton is just insane. And I love him for it! He has 'whoa!' hair. So cute. And that whole genius thing.. Have ya heard he is making a new Alice In Wonderland!? I believe the mighty Johnny Scissorhands is going to be the Mad Hatter. Should be pure grand insane fun and beauty!
And yes! We are very much alike! It's comforting actually! Not too many that seem to get me out in the world! ;p
We ♥ you too Ergo!! Enjyo ya dinner!! Hope to catch ya later! kiss!
Okay it says…..
"You seem to be just the right size. I have a spare crypt that would fit you perfectly."
“By your appearance it seems I'll be seeing you soon with your name chiseled in stone."
Yep that's what it says. Oh and the three skulls have red eyes that light up. The blood that flows is the best part though.
Wow Elena... I think that gravestone is hitting on you. And I think you should be worried...I read a fic that started like that once... eep.
;)
Oh hellz! And who is Edward Gorey now!?? Or was that a joke I missed? Dear god.. I am lost tonight.
Oh holy crap I have to get up in a few hours. I really should try to sleep. The problem is I know if I go to bed what I’ll do. There is a window at the foot of the bed so I’ll move my pillow down so I can lie looking out the window. I love listening to the night sounds and I love the feel of the night air. Problem is I won’t sleep. Maybe I should try the sofa but then I’ll stare at the ceiling fan and try to count the blades as it goes round and round.
When I try to sleep all the things I haven't thought of during the day suddenly pop up.
I need an on/off switch for my brain.
Cutting Class! Holy shit Elena! I found the tittle!! Huzzah!! So you have to rent that one, unless you have local cable -then I am sure you have seen it at four in the morning.. ;p
Anyway, I have to be off loves! It was really nice to chat with ya tonight! (However short!) I miss the affection in this place. I hope it stays and I hope it spreads!! -Ooh, that almost sounded dirty.
ha, cool.
;D
Love to you guys! Be well! I hope to catch ya again soon. kiss <333
Oops sorry Elena! I am slow! (ha, in more ways than one!) ;) I hope you get some real rest Sainty -do whatever you think you make you must comfortable. Just try it! If not, then -heh, oldies but goldies methods!
Again, Goodnight Miranth and Ergo too! If you two come back by -was glad to have caught ya! -loves
'You make you most comfortable' ...??
Well of course you do! ;p Unless ya hubby is home... hee! Nighty night! <333
I have to go to target soon, anyway lewis, but your ad might convince me to go sooner, (when I get my car fixed, that is).
And it is comforting that we have similar feelings about experiences! :) I only just realized though we had talked before about things and always agreed. I think this is better than the real world anyway. In the real world I can't go anywhere without transportation, but I can always visit here. :)
I'll have to look up the new Tim Burton. Alice reminds me of drafting class because we had to practice writing with passages from it :) I hadn't thought of that in ages!
Elena, I will look for it when I go to my target. I want to see what the blood looks like. I am warped, too! :D
Talk to ya later Lewis.
Well I guess I'm going for the window. In the darkness if I stare long enough the trees move. No not sway they move. Like in "The Shining."
Elena is way too tired to be talking.
Take care everyone.
Night again, Mayo.
Nice talking to you Miranth. Do check out Target.
Take care.
Goodnight elena! I agree about the on/off switch. I just try day dreaming while laying in bed and it has worked recently.
I think I'll pop in a movie, that works too :)
Good night Lewis and sweet dreams! PS - E Gorey is an artist! You might like his work! Giant *hugs* :) You always brighten this place up!
(Sorry I type slowly! And the words keep getting switched around on this laptop. The I bar jumps).
OK, I am going now, the Golden Compass awaits. But I wanted to respond to this:
censorship offends me.
October 11, 2008 7:20 PM
Censorship offends me too, except when messages are left to deliberately cause pain to others. An example would be racial epithets spray painted on someone's property to intimidate people.
If seemingly painful messages are meant to encourage people to reflect on their assumptions, however, I find censorship offensive, in those cases - and especially where the recipients of the message are aware of the creator's intent.
I can't help but feel there is a difference. And if I am wrong, so be it.
That being said, I still don't have the heart to read back, whatever the commenters' intentions were.
Mayo - Thanks for this place. I created my very own TODD up above.
:)
OK, now I am being silly and will take my ass off to bed! :D
Enjoy the rest of your weekend everyone!
♥
And thank you for keeping me company. I actually forgot that I missed the party. :)
Goodmorning everyone!
Ergo!!
Vroooooooooom indeed!
The last 7 laps, OMGosh!
And 3 times in a row for Lowndes!!
Fabulous driving! And go Ford!
Thanks for the salute. I did a big telepathic cheer for you when I got back from the airport! =)
After having missed the first 57laps. >_<
Can't wait for next year. =)
Mayo,
Your fingernails. O_o
*tsk tsk*
5 days later and still dirty! ;)
You know that paint is going to be hard to get out from under those nails, don't you?
Hmmm. I might be able to help with that.
Don't worry. I have a gentle touch. ;)
Have a lovely Sunday/Monday all. =)
Oops, one more thing.
Many Happy Returns, Beloved Immortal.
I hope your head is well this morning. =)
ANON!!!! - from the other day
I just watched Behind the Mask!
What a great little movie!! So original and clever, and like Elena said nice little homages to other classics. I really enjoyed it, Thanks so much for suggesting it :)
Hiya PP!
Great race
Yes it's not often there is such a close ending!
I would love to get there one year and Craig's a Queenslander! Woo hoo!
Mayo
“Thousands of candles can be lit from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared.”
Nothing is ever lost by being the best you can be, by lighting even the smallest spark in another. You never know when the person waiting for that tiny flame may cross your path, so don't be afraid to share good things with all you meet, even briefly. You just may be the one.
Wishing you trust, friendship, optimism and goals

“All that we are is the result of what we have thought. The mind is everything. What we think we become.” So many times we can become limited by our visions of ourselves. Our beliefs of what we can or can't do, what we do or don't deserve, what we should or shouldn't be. We must all remember that we are the result of our own minds. Experiences occur but it is how we choose to react that creates the person we are. The victor or the victim, the saint or the sinner, the inspiration or the disincentive. I hope you always choose the reaction that creates in you the most positive change. Not always easy but we can never change others, only ourselves, and by example perhaps spur them to think differently of themselves too. The more good we can do in the world the better it can be.
Sending you grace, harmony and sincerity
lotsa love EP xx

Hi PJ, MissT, Poofed Chameleon, Magic Pie, SC and Mel!
*runs back in to catch Ergo's big smoooooooooch*
Extra big *smoooooooooooooch* back, honeybunch!!!
*blows kisses to the rest of blogbelieve*
Ooops, I almost forgot. I failed the DUMB test. SHUCKS! First written test I ever failed ~ in my life!
:P
Well, I see more of the same bullshit went on here last night. People who are at DM or are not at DM got accused again. Repeat much?
Lemme see if I can keep this all straight...
Smoke attacked Amy at her blog.
The Porch people were anoning at Mayo's to slam Amy.
Porch people ruined the blog by monopolizing the conversation.
There is some hidden meaning to every post at DM and The Raconteurs song lyrics.
The picture of Shaunette and othere things were taken down at DM and replaced with our Disney World pic, because after all, it's to get Mayo's attention, right? We're attention whore's like that.
Our convo's get copied and pasted and our time monitored because we are obviously plotting to destroy the whole world, one blog at a time.
oh and my personal favorite...
Poetry is evil.
Does that pretty much cover it? I mean I'm sure I could go on and on about how pathetic and ugly and terrible and spiteful we all are, but I'm not sure if that's spamming up the blog or not.
I'm still a little fuzzy on the blog rules.
Could you people that have a problem with me do me a favor and bring it to DM or email me or take it my blog?
God in Heaven!
Are we to expect the same fucking bleating here every morning now?
How fucking boring.
I say this to all you people here with an agenda-you are killing this blog with boring self centered crap that is repeated day in, day out.
Anon,
I just want some answers and I want it to stop. I would love for them to take it to me directly.
But, oh well, oh well, oh well.
Hope you have a nice day!
ALL BLOGGERS ARE EQUAL
BUT SOME BLOGGERS ARE MORE EQUAL THAN OTHERS.
Mayo,
Dude, sorry, again. I woke up and read that stuff and you know some days it bothers me and some days not. Today, it did and I had to respond. Is that engaging? Probably. But damn, pinch, poke, punch and provoke me enough and you're bound to get a rise. So yeah, I'm not proud that I let some of this stuff get to me. I try to keep it all in perspective, but lines blur and I find myself stumbling in traffic just daring a fucking car to hit me.
I just apologize to you for having to do it here. I'm sure that I'm asking for answers that I will never get or never understand, but it's worth a shot.
Mayo, I hope your Sunday is beautiful. It's a dreary fall day here, rain, clouds, wind, but I don't mind. You're talking to a girl who seems to seek out the thunderstorm just so she can cry and write about being cold, wet, and alone.
Love to YOU Always,
S
p.s. It's supposed to wash it all away, right?
off with your head 10:17
Will the attention seeking ever end?
i'm confused. what secret meeting places and passwords is dickweed talking about on his/her blog?
For the record, I was around since Mayo's third (I think, maybe 4th) post. I was allowed at the secret meetings in various locations and I knew the passwords.
Hmm...
good♥♥morning
:)
Anon @10:59,
This place has always been full of a bunch of self-important exclusionary bitches, Mayo included. Secret clubs, secret handshakes, secret meeting places...it's all very reminiscent of middle school. You get a bunch of people together who were excluded during their formative years and they often try to relive that time period and make themselves feel better by forming their own little exclusive groups.
This place is fascinating to watch, but you can't take anything here seriously.
good morning
(is it a beautiful one?)
♥♥
:)
Walk through your day slowly. Never forget that this day, these moments, once gone become memories. They are your past in the making. Waste not a single second on regret for what has passed. The past can't be changed only remembered. Live today knowing that it too will fade into a memory. Make that memory one you will cherish. Walk through your life knowing that you are never alone. Walk through your life knowing that you are loved.
I'm just a lowly anon, but it looks more like a dragon than a rooster to me.
But what the hell do I know? I'm nobody so my opinion doesn't count.
11:22
I am gonna use an expression I have come to loathe but for the life of me I can think of no better in this instance:
I agree with you so hard!
You have said everything that I have believed for months.
Please visit more often.
good morning
(is it a beautiful one?)
♥♥
:)
it is now
because of you
♥♥
:)
(how's your morning?)
people are here because they have a crush on gerard and they hate the fact that the people that don't have a crush on gerard are the people Mayo chooses to acknowledge.
What about OPJ? She has a huge hard on for Frank.
Shame he doesn't have one for her!
i'm smiling, aren't i?
♥♥
:)
:)
good.
this is my smile for you
♥♥
♥♥ think of me today.
(i'll be thinking of you and smiling.)
:)
what is with J and all the stargazing anwyay?
It's not a hard on she has for Frank it's a dildo, she said so herself, "think about it"!!
i always think of you ♥
(but you made me laugh too)
:)
be well, my sweet
♥♥
Perhaps it is something private between the two of them.
Run, Frank, run!!!!!!!
It's not a hard on she has for Frank it's a dildo, she said so herself, "think about it"!!
what is that supposed to mean?
*tucks a card into BI's mailbox for her*

but...but...that's just so wrong. So very, very wrong...
I don't think they understand that tattoos are not transferable. 0_0
If they would do that to someone they say they respect, I'd hate to see what they would do to those they don't.

Copied and quoted for truth.
If you don't like Mayo or the people here or the way they behave you can always leave.
Underneath the shelf cracks appear in thick enamel
In this laps excuse for wasting time
I wait for signals shooting stars
I’d scrape through every branch
Coz I need to come down
Underneath the home
I lived in I was a page in someone’s book
And know one asked me why
The page was fifteen stories high
I’m underneath that home wondering why
All across the world
There are things we need to forget and forgive
Sometimes we have to try and shed the damage we don’t need
Oh justice shake your head
I’m wasting my time
We can break this drought
Wanna tell ya I love ya I need ya in the night
Sometimes I get so full
I wanna tell ya I’m feeling alright
I’m shaken to the bone
And on my way home
Adjust an omen at the door
Singing baby wont you please get a hold without it
And while you sit there on the phone tell me baby
I’m a liar you don’t seem to care what I care about and baby it’s a shame
To be wasted
All across the world
There are things we need to forget and forgive
Sometimes we have to try and shed the damage we don’t need
Oh justice shake your head
I’m on my way home
Thanks for the B'day wishes everyone.
Wendy thanks for the scrummy cake!
Baby hangover, slight tummy ache. I'm okay.
No turning my head upside down for me today.
Enjoy the day! Seize the day!
Back to my housework for me bleh. :)
FIMBLE STAR, you will be in my thoughts all damn day tomorrow. ♥ PINK BUBBLE. And once landed, you will be so happy. You deserve it. Always remember you are Ka Loke. ^_^
S(S)S, today I have this song for you: Trouble, by my Dad. I always kind of took it as my theme song. But it reminds me of you, too, because you're nice and kind, but you have edge. I always know edge when I sense it, and I see it in you. ^_^ So that is a song for you today. :D
Mayo, I have a poem for you today. I showed you this poem once long ago. It has long been one of my favorite poems ever, "A Woman's Last Word" by Robert Browning. But, the entire thing is not for me to quote for you; just the pertinent parts. :D
I.
Let's contend no more, Love,
Strive nor weep:
All be as before, Love,
---Only sleep!
II.
What so wild as words are?
I and thou
In debate, as birds are,
Hawk on bough!
III.
See the creature stalking
While we speak!
Hush and hide the talking,
Cheek on cheek!
IV.
What so false as truth is,
False to thee?
Where the serpent's tooth is
Shun the tree---
V.
Where the apple reddens
Never pry---
Lest we lose our Edens,
Eve and I.
...
VII.
Teach me, only teach, Love
As I ought
I will speak thy speech, Love,
Think thy thought---
...
IX.
That shall be to-morrow
Not to-night:
I must bury sorrow
Out of sight:
...
The rest of is it just as awesome. But there are some lovely words for you today.
"Planet Earth" is on Discovery channel today, guys. Sweet!
At the porch. Byeee!
1:14
It is far too entertaining to leave.
Anyway, I'm here and I like me so.....
It is healthy to be aware of your surroundings. Are you someone who thinks it is all dandy here or are you just ignorant?
I just don't understand why you would want to stay when you don't seem to have anything nice to say about the host or his Lovelies.
Hallo BI!
