Ms Pearl, How are you feeling about Ike?

brightpearl
09-14-2008, 02:41 PM
Well, it didn't pose much of a threat to my own self, but I am still waiting to hear from many friends...Electricity's out I expect. Several dear ones of mine were either evacuated themselves or were hosting family who was evacuated. Some still don't know how their homes are doing, although all the cats and dogs I know of are accounted for.
And I went to Galveston many times as a child; it was horrifying to see the beach was inundated, and then the boulders on the street, and the water in The Strand. It's so nice at Christmas...And there are lots of stretches of the island that were crowded with homes on Friday, but are today nearly bare. It will be a while yet before we understand how bad it was.

It brought back a lot about the one really big hurricane I was ever in. We were unprepared for it -- at the time, prediction wasn't as good, and it wasn't supposed to hit near us. I was at school. The sky was green. There were tornadoes. The school buses got us home in a couple of feet of water, and I think my parents and I were never so happy to see each other.

So overall, I feel pretty uneasy about Ike. But I am okay. Thank you very much for asking.

It is a huge disaster for so many! I just hope for the best. Just how far things will get stretched, energy, time, resources, and what not for people to get back.

It's only morning, but I already feel exhausted!

Instead of the joys of a quiet, peaceful breakfast I had to enjoy the adrenaline hunt of four mischievous young gerbils who learned their jumping and climbing lessons well and escped from their terrarium and probably partied all night in my living room.

a piece of useless wisdom gained: the last one is always the most difficult to catch.

a snapshot of me: headed for the kitchen with half-closed eyes, still dreaming, but strangely aware of some unusual noise I almost stepped on one of them little fwkkers. :eek:

I got a letter this morning that asked me to re-live every horrible thing that's happened to me in the last few years, and I couldn't help doing it again.

So I feel like I've been through the wringer. And I'm hurt about being asked to do it again, and I'm dreading the next time the same letter comes.

And I feel misunderstood, which is one of my very most least favorite things.

^Thanks.
But it's not so much that I want to feel cared for. It's more that I don't want to feel uncared for.

There was a phone call after the letter, so I am all wrung out.

I wish I was a bitter person. That would make this a lot easier for me.

Frieda

just found out that my friend's weirdo neighbor Lex set his place on fire and didn't make it

there's a video up on youtube from after the fire was put out. it's strange to see my friend's bf on it talking to the firemen-- and to see those firemen talking to each other about Lex, because i also know them very well.. we were in this hockey tournament organizing thing together a few years ago. we actually talked about the probability of Lex setting his place on fire back then.

i guess he pretty much had it coming with all those drugs he used and especially since the last time he set his house on fire.. but it's still so bizarre!

^what he said

lukkucairi
10-09-2008, 05:42 AM
well, I decided the original tetrahedron was too small, so I just winged it and made a 20' folded-over straight balloon with the painter's plastic.

took it into the driveway and inflated it with a hairdryer - before the seam split (damn!) it was quite majestic and gave the across-the-street neighbors one more reason to believe I'm crazy.

I'll do it again soon only I'll tape opposite sides to get the desired tetrahedral shape - and make a movie too :p

it's almost 3am and I'm too damn inspired to sleep...again. I wish I felt tired. tomorrow is going to be rough :o

lukkucairi
10-09-2008, 03:36 PM

it's extremely disturbing to me and it makes me feel sick

Hope hope hope.
How long would you have to be there before maybe getting another assignment?

Frieda
10-15-2008, 02:05 PM
^ at least a year. if we had any cliffs here i would throw myself off of one, but i'm already below sea level i guess.

brightpearl
10-15-2008, 02:16 PM
^Wow.
I've worked in jobs I really hated, and it's pretty difficult to keep the fumes of it from invading the rest of your life. A year seems like a long time. :(

How's the job market there? Is it unlikely you could switch companies?

Frieda
10-15-2008, 02:18 PM
^i'm not able to switch yet, i'm officially still sick. companies don't want to hire sick people.. i'll just have to find something else quick!

brightpearl
10-15-2008, 02:21 PM
Ohhhhh, right. It's all about the bottom line. Well, I really hope some better alternative is forthcoming from somewhere.

Myself, I'm going to start playing the lotto.

Is there a Dutch lotto?

Frieda
10-15-2008, 02:23 PM
yes but i'm not playing.. although saving money in the bank isn't much better either in the current financial climate.

lukkucairi

My experience of using goodwill meditation on myself and the person who was really driving me nuts at work is that it really really works

may I be happy
may I be peaceful
may I be free of stress and suffering
may I live with ease

and then

may he (she) be happy
may he (she) be peaceful
may he (she) be free of stress and suffering
may he (she) live with ease

It was definitely not instantaneous but it has now started working, after a few months. It's quite remarkable really...have you tried that with your current coworkers? Or is the problem not "people" related ?

Frieda
10-16-2008, 03:12 AM
not people related? i dont know what you mean.

Frieda
10-16-2008, 03:17 AM
let me add to that

thought attracts thought. thinking about one of my coworkers to be happy will attract thoughts from that particular coworker. i will notice this. it's annoying if you already have the feeling that you're being stalked.

best thing with this kind of situation is either to go vulcan and suppress or to repel for as long as you can manage, and if the time is right, run like hell.

i'm a freak magnet, i attract weird people. also disturbed people. i don't take the risk anymore, it's gone seriously bad before and i will not let that happen again.

The boy at the taco house asked for my number. I protested that I must be nearly twice his age and brokenhearted -- a bad combination. I tried to say thank you and no, tried to say both really earnestly. It made me sad on so many levels. I feel very weird about it.

went to the eye doctor and i feel even more awful

the cornea on both my eyes is heavily damaged by something mysterious, doctor says the damage is as bad as if someone had jammed grandma's knitting needles into my eyeballs. i don't recall ever having something like that happen to me.. sucks :(

thankfully, i'm not going blind yet and hopefully the steroid eyedrops that i got will help ease the pain soon :)

brightpearl

Oh, Frieda!!!
:(

With your eye phobia thing, too! What can be wrong?? Is it physical damage in one spot or could it be something like a vitamin deficiency?

Frieda
01-08-2009, 09:09 PM
i know! :(

it's scarring of the cornea, doc said it's unlikely it's from a disease or deficiency. it's in both eyes but the damage is different. right eye is worse than left.

think knitting needles, pencil point, fingernails or drunk uncoordinated mascara application or something. i have no idea what it was.. the doc told me it was as bad as 60 years of wearing contact lenses.

so now i'm getting treatment for the irritation/infection/etc and it should be at least a bit better in 2 months, which is nice, i think :) then hopefully i won't be so sensitive to light anymore either!

Three of the last four times I went to the ER was for eye problems. The first time it was an infection, and the other two times it was a scratch or tear in the cornea. Don't know what caused it. But it was really painful.

Oddly, the doctors provided better care for the corneal abrasions than the infection. The first guy came over, looked at my eye, and said "It's infected", then walked off, washed his hands, came back, wrote me a prescription, and sent me on my way. It was almost like I was wasting his time.

But the other two times I went, they gave me a more thorough exam, with a dye test, and the machine with the chin stirrups, and everything. Then they prescribed some kind of eye drops, fixed me up inside of a week.

I've got something of an eye phobia myself. So I grudgingly accepted the eye drops as an alternative to the ointment that was originally prescribed.

This sounds like something environmental. Do you live or work somewhere with a lot of sandstorms? Or smog? or abrasive dust? Something like that might scratch your eyes up a bit.

I feel pretty good

it's been 4 days with no alcohol and no caffeine and no meat or aged cheese or preserved anything...I can feel the toxins leaching out of my system...and GODDAMNIT I WANT THEM BACK :p

other than a pervasive feeling that my brain isn't functioning as smoothly as I'm used to, and the occasional grouch attack, it's OK.

I'm wondering now if the feeling of "brain not functioning smoothly" is something that eventually goes away during a detox, or if drinking wine and eating moldy cheeses every day has actually changed the way my neurotransmitters balance so I can't manage to sustain critical thought without a glass of plonk and some gorgonzola.

I've had a long day and I've been waiting all day to come home and just sleep and now this. I am ready to be out there on the verandah with a dressing gown and a rolling pin shouting like a crazy lady but for two things: 1. there isn't a verandah here and 2.

What was that lately btw, was some good stuff! .... Oh, we weren't too loud, were we? *sugarsweet, innocent smile*" when you ring someplace to borrow a lightbulb on a Sunday late afternoon....

I was supposed to meet my boss today for coffee. I had emailed him and offered to meet him if he wanted. Anytime today.

A little while later he emailed me to see him at Starbucks at noon.

I had been to the doctor yesterday for antibiotics and meds. Well, I sat down on my couch and literally passed out from the meds. I missed his email and of course, missed seeing him.

Haven't heard back from him yet. So, I'm worried.

One good thing. I told him I play mind games with my dog and the dog has great patience with me. I am a dog person. He liked that. He is a dog person.

There's a dog connection to fall back on if needed.

But I have to admit I am feeling scared.

Brynn
01-25-2009, 06:46 AM
Worst case scenario - he fires you for standing him up for coffee.

But nobody does that. Bring him a Starbucks (a really fancy expensive one) and say "This is my official kiss up to you for not showing up, which, with your permission, might double as an effusive apology as well. Oh, and Woof."

I'm going to talk about my extreme narcissism for a second.

I've been rehearsing my guts out for a play festival reading last night at a big respected theatre here in town. An Opportunity, a Break perhaps, a chance to move up to a better (as in paying) tier. Our short but powerful play was the last of three. I'm pretty hard on myself, but even I have to admit that I hit a home run last night. I almost never do things to my satisfaction, but I was really good, the play was good, and people even raved after, blah blah blah.

All except the artistic director of the giant theatre where I'd like to get hired. See, the play right before ours was pretty awful and long. So Mr. VIP left in disgust before we came on, missing this amazing performance we all turned in. So I've been feeling very distressed and disappointed and discouraged. Until I read about this woman: Brazilian Beauty Queen Loses Hands and Feet and Dies (http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/article2169383.ece?OTC-RSS&ATTR=New). Now I'm feeling kind of annoyed at her for making me feel guilty for feeling like I had an actual problem to whine about, and then hating myself for feeling annoyed in order not to think too much about the reality of what happened to this poor woman ... and so on ad infinitum.

Relationships
Dave Barry

Contrary to what many women believe, it's fairly easy to
develop a long-term, stable, intimate, and mutually fulfilling
relationship with a guy. Of course, this guy has to be a Labrador
retriever. With human guys, it's extremely difficult. This is
because guys don't really grasp what women mean by the term
"relationship."

Let's say a guy named Roger is attracted to a woman named
Elaine. He asks her out to a movie; she accepts; they have a pretty
good time. A few nights later, he asks her out to dinner, and again
they enjoy themselves. They continue to see each other regularly, and
after a while neither one of them is seeing anybody else.

And then, one evening when they're driving home a thought
occurs to Elaine, and, without really thinking, she says it aloud:
"Do you realize that, as of tonight, we've been seeing each other for
exactly six months?"

And then there is silence in the car. To Elaine, it seems
like
a very loud silence. She thinks to herself: Geez, I wonder if it
bothers him that I said that. Maybe he's been feeling confined by our
relationship; maybe he thinks I'm trying to push him into some kind of
obligation that he doesn't want, or isn't sure of.

And Roger is thinking. Gosh. Six months.

And Elaine is thinking: But, hey, I'm not so sure I want this

kind of relationship, either. Sometimes I wish I had a little more
space, so I'd have time to think about whether I really want us to
keep going the way we are, moving steadily toward. . . . I mean, where
are we going? Are we just going to keep seeing each other at this
level of intimacy? Are we heading toward marriage? Toward children?
Toward a lifetime together? Am I ready for that level of commitment?
Do I really even know this person?

And Roger is thinking: So that means it was . . . let's see .

. . February when we started going out, which was right after I had
the car at the dealer's which means . . . lemme check the odometer . .
.Whoa! I am way overdue for an oil change here.

And Elaine is thinking: He's upset. I can see it on his
face.
Maybe I'm reading this completely wrong. Maybe he wants more from our
relationship, more intimacy, more commitment; maybe he has sensed --
even before I sensed it -- that I was feeling some reservations. Yes,
I bet that's it. That's why he's so reluctant to say anything about
his own feelings. He's afraid of being rejected.

And Roger is thinking: And I'm gonna have them look at the
transmission again. I don't care what those morons say, it's still
not shifting right. And they better not try to blame it on the cold
weather this time. What cold weather? It's 87 degrees out, and this
thing is shifting like a garbage truck, and I paid those incompetent
thieving bastards six hundred dollars.

And Elaine is thinking: He's angry. And I don't blame him.
I'd be angry, too. I feel so guilty, putting him through this, but I
can't help the way I feel. I'm just not sure.

And Roger is thinking: They'll probably say it's only a
90-day
warranty. That's exactly what they're gonna say, the scumballs.

And Elaine is thinking: Maybe I'm just too idealistic,
waiting
for a knight to come riding up on his white horse, when I'm sitting
right next to a perfectly good person, a person I enjoy being with, a
person I truly do care about, a person who seems to truly care about
me. A person who is in pain because of my self-centered schoolgirl
romantic fantasy.

`There's no horse'

And Roger is thinking: Warranty? They want a warranty? I'll

give them a warranty. I'll take their warranty and stick it . . .

"Roger," Elaine says aloud.

"What?" says Roger, startled.

"Please don't torture yourself like this," she says, her eyes
beginning to brim with tears. "Maybe I should never have . . . Oh, I
feel so . . ." (She breaks down sobbing.)

"What?" says Roger.

"I'm such a fool," Elaine sobs. "I mean, I know there's no
knight. I really know that. It's silly. There's no knight, and
there's no horse."

"There's no horse?" says Roger.

"You think I'm a fool, don't you?" Elaine says.

"No!" says Roger, glad to finally know the correct answer.

"It's just that . . . it's that I . . .I need some time,"
Elaine
says.

(There is a pause while Roger, thinking as fast as he can, tries to
come up with a safe response. Finally, he comes up with one that he
thinks might work.)

"Yes," he says.

(Elkaine, deeply moved, touches his hand.)

"Oh, Roger, do you really feel that way?" she says.

"What way?" says Roger.

"That way about time," says Elaine.

"Oh," says Roger. "Yes."

(Elaine turns to face him and gazes deeply into his eyes, causing him
to become very nervous about what she might say next, especially if it
involves a horse. At last she speaks.)

"Thank you, Roger," she says.

"Thank you," says Roger.

Then he takes her home, and she lies on her bed, a conflicted,

tortured soul, and weeps until dawn, whereas when Roger gets back to
his place, he opens a bag of Doritos, turns on the TV, and immediately
becomes deeply involved in a rerun of a tennis match between two
Czechoslovakians he never heard of. A tiny voice in the far recesses
of his mind tells him that something major was going on back there in
the car, but he is pretty sure there is no way he would ever
understand what, and so he figures it's better if he doesn't think
about it. (This is also Roger's policy regarding world hunger.)

The next day, Elaine will call her closest friend, or perhaps
two of them, and they will talk about this situation for six straight
hours. In painstaking detail, they will analyze everything she said,
and everything he said, going over it time and time again, exploring
every word, expression and gesture for nuances of meaning, considering
every possible ramification.

Meanwhile, Roger, while playing racquetball one day with a
mutual friend of his and Elaine's, will pause just before serving,
frown, and say: "Norm, did Elaine ever own a horse?"

We're not talking about different wavelengths here. We're
talking about different planets, in completely different solar
systems.

Elaine cannot communicate meaningfully with Roger about their
relationship any more than she can meaningfully play chess with a
duck.
Because the sum total of Roger's thinking on this particular topic is

as follows:

Huh?

But the point I'm trying to make is that, if you're a woman,
and you want to have a successful relationship with a guy, the No. 1
Tip to remember is:

1. Never assume that the guy understands that you and he have a
relationship. The guy will not realize this on his own. You have to
plant the idea in his brain by constantly making subtle references to
it in your everyday conversation such as:

* "Roger, would you mind passing me a Sweet `n' Low, inasmuch as we
are have a relationship?"

* "Roger, inasmuch as this plane in crashing and we probably have only
about a minute to live, I want you to know that we've had a wonderful
53 years of marriage together, which clearly constitutes a
relationship."

Never let up, women. Pound away relentlessly at this concept,

and eventually it will start to penetrate the guy's brain. Someday he
might even start thinking about it on his own. He'll be talking with
some other guys about women, and, out of the blue, he'll say. "Elaine
and I, we have, ummm. . . We have, ahhh . . . We . . . We have this
thing."

And he will sincerely mean it.

yes! I think he's got the most "star quality."

what I love most about the whole thing is just how beautiful everyone's faces are when they are relaxed. they don't have a lot of opportunity to become self-conscious. and you just can't plan the beauty of the passive camera movement as it swings around the curves of the conveyor belt.

how happy they must have been, to watch the mystery footage.

Actually the whole of the couple from 1:14 to 1:27 is great. That changing expression she has from the time she notices the camera til the time she laughs just as the plates block our view of her. Who could direct this? Who could act this? ;)

maybe, but I feel like discussing it too :) I think that's why we idolize the people who are able to at least closely approximate what that is - to be utterly yourself and utterly human, caught in the act of existence by an impersonal entity. We're fascinated by the true nakedness of the Other. But outside of porn we don't see it very often - you have to ambush people into it like this camera did. When I watch it, I get the same astonished feeling I get when I've wandered onto wildlife, or suddenly opened a door that I normally would have knocked on first.

Its so nice to meet an old friend and pass the time of day
And talk about the home town a million miles away
Is the ice still on the river, are the old folks still the same
And by the way, did she mention my name?

Did she mention my name just in passing
And when the morning came, do you remember if she dropped a name or two
Is the home team still on fire, do they still win all the games
And by the way, did she mention my name?

Is the landlord still a loser, do his signs hang in the hall
Are the young girls still as pretty in the city in the fall
Does the laughter on their faces still put the sun to shame
And by the way, did she mention my name?

Did she mention my name just in passing
And when the talk ran high, did the look in her eye seem far away
Is the old roof still leaking when the late snow turns to rain
And by the way, did she mention my name?

Did she mention my name just in passing
And looking at the rain, do you remember if she dropped a name or two
Wont you say hello from someone, there'll be no need to explain
And by the way, did she mention my name?
