Creative Payback

 
Today I am thankful for creative paybacks.
 
 
I am a femi-nazi with money.  I don't know how long I'll have money but I have some now. 
 
I buy my own drinks because I can. 

I'll buy my companion's drinks because it's obnoxious. 
 
 
Now, he's taken to buying my drinks and getting quite creative in the process.
 
 
Yesterday, he sent me off to retrieve something I left in my car while he paid for my drink. 
 
 
It was cute. 
 
 
We had a lot of flooding in my area over the past few days.  I wanted to keep my phone by my side so my relatives could call if they needed my help.
 
I left my phone in the car but refused to go get it because I knew that he'd get sneaky and pay for my drink.
 
 
I told him he'd get sneaky if I left.   
 
His reply was 'just let me pay for the drink.'
 
Okay....he's a man. 
 
 
He's not a narcissistic man. 
 
 
He'd an old fashioned one. 
 
 
I relented.  He bought my drink as we sat waiting for a lecture to start. 
 
 
The fun part about that was that I spent the entire evening thinking about things I could give him in exchange for the drinks he's been buying lately. 
 
I want to be fair about it. 
 
Taking without giving is absolutely NO FUN at all!
 
At first, I thought about a gold plated kilt pin I spied on a Scottish website.  It is of a rampant lion and it reminds me of my Leo friend.

It's not cheap.  It's about $350.  They have a pewter one for under $100 but my friend, with his heart of gold, must get the gold one.  Pewter and silver just don't fit his personality.  It's gotta be gold.

If I put away $5 everytime he buys a $5 drink, I'll have the money saved in six months to a year. 
 
Yeah.....
 
sigh....

Yes, the kilt pin is nice.  I can imagine him wearing it. 

I did.  I visualized him wearing it. 

It was good. 
 
Then, of course, my mind wondered to what I could do beneath the kilt. 
 
Then I became giddy. 
  
Then I lost about 50 IQ points
 
-and-
 
I lost the ability to communicate. 
 
When I told him that I has having trouble communicating with him because he was an attractive man, he looked at me in disbelief. 
 
Sigh....
 
 
I think I scared him away. 
 
 
Sigh.....
 
 
Maybe I need a dummy
 
-or-
 
I need to become hot enough to stun a smart man into temporarily acting like a dummy. 
 
Life IS a lot of fun; payback more so. 
 
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....

Venus Meditations

  Today I am thankful for my new realization.  In my world, Friday is the day of love (reminds of The Cure - lol).  It's true.  Friday is the day of Venus.  Exhausted as I was after work, I went to my altar and lit a candle asking that my friend find whatever his life is lacking. Then I went upstairs and did my Friday night ritual to Aphrodite.  I lit a candle asking that I gain confidence in my ability to love.  I also ask that I recognize true love.  I was too exhausted to linger so I tried to fall asleep.  Have you been too tired to sleep?  It's horrible.  Your mind goes round and round -  you might recall things that happened recently (like the doctor telling me to be careful because I haven't hit menopause yet and I say, "not worried about it" while thinking that it's a good time to be in a sexual drought - hooray for me),  or things going on at work  (that I can hypnotize little cranky babies to sleep without sa...

My Competition

Only our best friends and greatest teachers will have the courage to say those uncomfortable things to help us get out of the mud and back on our paths.   Today I am thankful for my competition. I love being a hypnotist because I have the most wonderful colleagues in the world. I bought a refresher Stop Smoking Hypnosis Course from another hypnotist trainer.  I bought it because I'm too lazy to create my own business forms.  It comes with the forms.  Usually, I can't read anything this man writes without learning something new.  I figured that I couldn't go wrong investing in his products.  I received the package yesterday.  It was supposed to contain four CDs. I received five.  Do you want to guess what the fifth one was?  It was a hypnosis session entitled "Overcome Your Lost Love." I'm a little bit tickled at that discovery. This is perfect!!! I love this guy's voice.   This is the mo...
