Almost Mid-LIfe Musings


Darn it...

Psychology and politics got in the way of my music career.

That's okay. I suck when compared to my friends. The most the ones with radio play ever let me do was play bass for them when their bassist was too drunk to stand. Sigh...

I also got to meet George Jones when they opened for him.  He was pretty humble. 

Sigh...If I would have continued to practice thirty hours a week....maybe. 

The problem is that I was born a tenacious b!tch. 

God gave me an outlet. 

The jerky idiots at the local municipality chose the wrong lady to mess with six years ago. 

There is a bratty legislator that I really want to attack with a cosmetic sponge.  She only puts make-up on her face, not her neck and décolletage.  Worse, it is a little too dark for her beautiful skin tone.  I want to drag her down to MAC so she doesn't look like a clown when she ridicules rape victims and tells her cohorts that they shouldn't read the bills they vote on, they ought to flip a coin to decide how to vote. 

She'll sound like a clown but at least she won't look like one anymore.  If Aphrodite blesses you with a pretty face, at least honor that gift.  Whoa...

This woman wants to pass a one billion dollar tax hike for the school unions.  The bill was introduced minutes before they expected everyone to vote on it. 

If this tax hike hits the state ballot, guess who is going to have to help her friends fight it?  I'd rather do something else with my time. 

Worse, this woman represents my hometown.

I'm going to see if I can help get her recalled.  They're going to meet in the courtyard of my old office building tomorrow. 

She threatened one of my friends.  I'm going for moral support. 

Oh, this politician is prone to throwing tantrums when people collect recall signatures. 

Please...please....

lady....

pick me...pick me...

yell at me...

pretty please!!! 

I'll be wearing a brown and black wrap dress and black high heel shoes.  I'll be wearing a big button that says

"Libertarian - pro choice on EVERYTHING!"
I'll try to rinse out this black henna tonight.  Politicians recognize me by my blazing red hair.  If I'm outside, my hair will blaze in the sun.  I may wear a huge black hat.  I'm not sure which one I want yet!

Lady, I'll change your life! 
Here is a little tidbit about dealing with screaming banshees.  

If someone screams at you in anger, he or she is in an altered state.  Anything you say will stick in her mind forever. 

Yep...

If a politician you're trying to recall yells at you, all you have to do is stare into their eyes, take a slow deep breath, copy one of the person's mannerisms (not too obvious), and slowly say something like

"You don't have to STEP DOWN NOW and save yourself the embarrassment of losing your recall race." 

For effect, drop your voice ever so slightly when you say "step down now."

The subconscious mind won't hear the word "don't." It'll hear "step down now" and "save yourself embarrassment."

Works every time!

Should I tell you how to draw someone to you? 

You have to learn their personal hello.  It's easier to do than to explain. 

Basically people will have mannerisms as they walk in public.  They have unconscious body language signals that say they notice you.  It can be a nod.  It can be a flick of their hand.  It may be a smile.  Everyone is different.  If you catch it when a person is approaching (maybe 100 feet away), you can copy it and get his or her attention.  People are usually drawn to you when you do that. 

Doing that with a crowd prior to giving a speech gives you an extra sense of rapport with the crowd. 

Maybe I should write a book on my trade secrets. 

It's good to be a mentalist. 

Then after I'm done, the highlight of my day will be walking over to the guitar shop and drooling on the basses. 

I miss my hometown.  

Love ya,

S.

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.  We ran into her at a Wal-mart in 2005 and my keys went mi

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 his financial

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 and when he is stressed out
