The Living Dead Getting Back to Life


Today I am thankful for scalding hot baths. 


Yeah....

So....

Um.....

I unwrapped that silver charm from Ireland. 

I've got to get rid of it. 

Um....

I don't like the new dreams at all. 

So - I started off having one of those dreams of Mr. Stoic from the past that I've had over the past few months.  Then the scene faded into an even more disturbing scene.  

It's a dream of a socially inept political activist in my bedroom.  He's dressed but I'm still disturbed by my subconscious mind taking me there. There is literally nothing in my home for this person.  I can't describe him, what he does or anything or people will know who he is. 

He behaves strangely in relation to me.  It wasn't always this way.  When I was married, he was nice.  He tried to get me business building political websites (it's only a hobby for me).  After I divorced,  his behavior became bizarre.  I will say that he did the one thing you don't do to an INFJ, the last time I spoke to him, he got drunk and chastised me publicly for wanting to stop a government tax scheme to build a private hotel.  I think he forgot my political stance.  He obviously forgot his own. I avoid this man like the plague because it's not worth my breath to try to correct him. 

This is both puzzling and disturbing for me. 



*****

So - maybe my mind is trying to tell me that there really is no one worth dating.  I'm going to have to come to terms with that.  I'm picky.  I'm not pretty enough to be picky. 

I've never really dated.  My few lovers have always been close friends who ask for benefits.  When I try to date, it turns into a nightmare. 

Since the only people I hang out with now are women, my intimate life is dead. 

I think I understand the point of the dreams**....

At least I can remember that I once had the opportunity to love at some point in my life.  I had the experience.  I'm a lucky person. 

Without men in my world, what am I going to do with all this beautiful free time? 

We are born alone.  We die alone.  I was raised apart from my siblings.  Alone - well, that's the story of my life. 

I may as well enjoy it.  

*****

I have a busy day tomorrow at Fort Logan.  I may not have time to visit other cemeteries.  I guess it will depend on whether or not I can sleep without creepy dreams. 

There is too much too do. 

Old ladies don't really have a lot of time. 

Love ya,

** NEXT MORNING EDIT: As usual, I couldn't sleep.  I tried to meditate to help me fall asleep and asked how to rid myself of the love and sexual energy.  There was a visualization of Poseidon with his Trident surrounded by this realm - the stormy seas.  He would take the energy from me and ask Aphrodite to find me an appropriate outlet to recreate these feelings for me when the time was right. 

I had no creepy dreams after that. 

I slept nearly a full eight hours. 

There are no pangs of worry, guilt or fear. 

I'll still light the white candles through November with the same wish as always. 

Finally....at this moment, I feel like myself again (except that I cannot see - stupid bifocals). 

I'm running late for the graveyards. 

((( hugs )))

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
