Creme Filled Snacks

Today I am thankful for creme filled snacks.

Hostess is going out of business. The Republicans are blaming the unions.

Yeah...right....

They'd be better off blaming Michelle Obama and her war on sugar.

Hostess filed bankruptcy in January and floated the idea of liquidation back then. Google it if you don't believe me.

The union employees probably didn't want to take a pay cut and impact their unemployment benefits.

We all know this isn't the end of Ding Dongs, Twinkies and cement laden Wonder Bread. Some marketer will buy the brand and the recipes and move the operation to Mexico or somewhere cheaper to produce crappy snack foods.

You know, I've never had a snowball. I guess I should go buy one.

They always looked a little perverted to me.

As a kid, I didn't find the look appealing but now.....it isn't all that bad.

Sigh....

I stopped eating that crap when I became a model way back in the day.

Okay, okay....the truth of the matter is that I just stopped eating. No one tells you that it kills your metabolism when your old and going gray.

That's not true. My first boyfriend would freak out and take me out to dinner. You know someone loves you when they share their food with you. If I only knew what I could have done to make him happy and give me a protien shake, we'd probably have never parted. It certainly would have been much cheaper than eating out all the darn time.

Ah, to be young and ignorant. He was the pervert. He should have educated me. Ah, it is just my luck to attract all the sweet gentleman to my side. My friends get the cheating perverts. I get the nice guys who want to wait until my divorce is final. My friends are chunkier and have wider smiles. I frown but am more slender because I get my exercise climbing the walls.

On the bright side, I'm sure I'll survive the apocalypse. I don't need food to survive. I'm ready for it...bring it baby.

Not really....I'll probably get shot when the government rounds up the activists.

According to the conspiracy theorists, I'm already dead.

Oh....on another note, I saw a story from The Onion that makes me smile.

Laid-Off Hostess Employee Forced To Look For Creme-Injecting Job Elsewhere

That's funny....I know several women looking for someone for just that very thing.

Good luck to him.

Love ya,

Stalker Proxy Phone Calls

What kind of songs do narcissistic stalkers sing? I imagine they sing songs like this. I am grateful now that I understand why the stalker has people call but wish they'd listen when I ask them not to call again. I probably should document this somewhere. My ex was talking to an old friend of mine from high school on a daily basis. She is his cousin. I had to quit talking to her when she'd ask me to plan parties and then refuse to give me the guest list saying that the attendees would only be me, her, my stalker Shannon, and my NPD mother-in-law. She wanted me to plan interventions. This happened with a baby shower. It also happened with a wedding. The in-laws put together a fake wedding trying to host an intervention to shame me and my ex into doing things for them (like quit school and give them my car). I had to cut this so-called friend off over that in 2004....

The Love Gods Have a Sense of Humor

Today I am thankful about the ever-changeable, ever-humorous universe. It is said that 'in life, the only constant is change.' Ah, this is a true tidbit, isn't it? I recently vowed NOT to date until Michael officially moves out of the house. I also vowed NOT to be close to him unless he signs up for FOO (Family of Origin) and Relationship counseling. I've been with the man nearly a quarter of a century, he's not going to go to therapy to have a relationship with me. He plays games with money, divorce agreements, custody arrangements, transportation, and all sorts of things to keep me stuck here. It's nothing money and a lawyer can't solve. ***** They say that dysfunctional people have three weapons that they use to keep people under their thumb. The acronym is FOG. Yes, they are FOG machines. What does FOG stand for? F ear O bligation -and- G uilt Yes, there is fear. Fear that he won't honor hi...

Personality Theory

Today I am thankful for personality theory. I can't say that I buy into it very much. People change over the course of their lives. Healthy people grow. Unhealthy people either stay static or regress. So what one tests today may change tomorrow. I do believe that personality theories (even ancient ones like astrology) create self-fulfilling prophecies. If people buy into it, it gives a lot of insight into their characters, needs, and behaviors. I've spent most of my adult life studying personality theories. From Eric Fromm's theory's about authoritian -vs- mature personalities and how authoritians fear power while mature people revel in it to Jung's introvert -vs- extrovert theory. A major one of interest to me is an offshoot of Jung, it is the MBTI type inventory. When I'm happy, I'm a textbook INFJ. When I'm pissed off and wanting to strangle my ex, I act like a ESTP. My ex is a ESTP a...
