Sleeping Pills

Today I am thankful for sleeping pills. 


I know it sounds stupid -but- I'm a little ticked off.

I'm in love with a guy named Steve who has more ethics in his little finger than I have anywhere.

I'm trying to divorce a stranger named Mike.

I'm dreaming of an ex named Thomas.

They are not sex dreams, they are dreams that make me worry about him.

I'm dreaming of some kind of diary or correspondence he's writing.

I hate the Thomas getting hurt dreams the most.

So, this time, I'm going to medicate them away.

If Ol' Tom still remembers my nickname and stumbles on this stupid thing.

Remember to pull the rip cord.

Remember your inhaler.

Remember to breathe.

Remember to get snow tires on your car.

Remember to stay away from the crazy ladies (like me).  

I think that ought to cover it!

You're supposed to live a long, long time.  You used to tell me that you saw us as old people.  Okay...I'm holding you to that.

Love ya...

That's why I stay away.

I drove ya nuts.  If we'd have stayed together, you'd be driven to an early grave.

Stick around.  This place is pretty darn fun.

I'll do free hypnosis for you....but nothing else.  I terrorized you as a youth.  You've done your time.  Go out and have that fun!

You've been through hell and back.  You can do anything.

Cheerio!

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....

Visiting the Graveyard in my Hometown and Addressing Fears I'll Soon Join the Party

 Today I am thankful for a laugh.  It didn't start out funny.  My aunt visits once a week to use the washer and dryer.   My new dryer broke just a few days out of warranty so we dried her clothes outside. While standing outside, she took me aside an said "I don't want to alarm you, but....." then she got silent.  I pointed at the shed.  "Are you worried about all the stuff pulled out of the shed?", I asked.  "Yes.", she replied.  "That happens all the time!"   She advised me to chain the door.  I've done that.  The thief just tears the roof off.  It's easier just to keep crap in it I don't care about so the thief can rummage and take what he or she wants.  Again, I was advised to consider moving, especially after finding a full gas can in the mess.  My aunt is afraid my ex-husband is going to kill me.  I've been court-ordered to live here for another two years.  Sigh.... I'm sure a judge would allo...

Temporary Ending

Dear Readers: Over the past three weeks, I attended both a city councilperson's town hall and the mayoral town hall. Despite battling the flu, I dedicated two days to watching all available city council meetings and study sessions on YouTube in between bouts of cold chills. What I observed was a troubling pattern of disregard for honesty and disrespect towards citizens, the rule of law, and the influence of partisan politics. It has become evident that certain issues transcend the scope of a mere community art project. This realization prompted me to raise my voice, a departure from my usual composed demeanor. After discussing the situation with my family, we collectively decided to remain in Aurora. It is clear that true leadership entails making tough decisions rather than simply following personal desires. I look forward to the opportunity to address these concerns further in a different forum. Warm regards, S.  P.S. There will be a new website.
