Garden-Variety Affirmations for non-Garden-Variety People

We will TEACH you Suggest to you mold fold bend staple and mutilate you into becoming the sort of Garden-Variety person you need to be to get the Program.

No really we will teach you to calm yourself or excite yourself as necessary, and in touch with the reality around you, while not abandoning the reality you've built within. A fantasy world if you want to call it that for simplicity's sake (and we are none of us, simple people. we can appear plausibly simple, even to ourselves, but in my experience our roads are particularly messy and gnarly for a variety--perhaps even a garden variety, but exponential varieties of garden varieties all happening at the same time with exponential force.

I hear this gets better with practice. But why should we have to practice a natural state of being. Well, deaf people practice sign language. To be better understood.


Oedypus's problem? not that he fucked his mother, no. 

But that he didn't know himself. 

See, if he knew he was her son, he would not have fucked her. If he'd known he was his father's son he would not have killed him. And none of that shit would of gone down. That basic knowledge of "Who am I?" would have caused him to made different decisions. Presumably. I think we can presume Jocasta was not a MILF and Oedypus was not a perv.

FINE in pink at end of text so you know you 've got it all. Save feature on Blogger weirding out. I think it has something to do with signing in and out of google to get gmail under different account. Answering letter between blog and actual letter (DO not try this at HOME kids==hit that send key at the wrong time ===after a fantasy tirade against boss=== and U R scrod.


Why addicts are insomniacs:

We like to stay in that in-between stage (sleep/wake) as much as possible because that is the closest thing to a nice peaceful nodding out high as we are going to get without morphine. et al.

Not conciously, but [oh gods the refridgerator. I can't handle the washing machine and now the fridge?] I'm getting all my 2013 bad luck in the last 3 weeks of December. and what's my part in this? Procrastination?

or MS and heart disease and depression and shock and Aspergers and inability to judge character and being royaly raped in the soul and pocketbook.


Smart but unbearably naive. That's an Aspergers thing and it frustrates the hell out of friends who want to appear cool under all circumstances. They give me lectures. But none of them have made consistantly* good choices.


*FAIL. and I thought I'd learned how to spell consistantly consistently. o no that was anomolous shit and double shit. anomalous a ha all is not lost. oh yes, how many English words have 3 Os in them?


where was I?


Aspie stupid rewrites/thank-you letter; I am NOT worthy

Well, thank you so much! That's a surprise. I'm sorry I've had to back off on volunteering
I know things have changed since Dad's time, but's pretty cool--they take all your blood out and put it in a tank. Hopefully there is no vampire with a straw hiding in the next room. (Did you see "There Will be Blood"? The "I drink your milkshake" scene.
See, I already have myself cut open on a table, probably with an incompetant anaesthesiologist, and I haven't even had the stress test yet. That's how I project and scare myself silly.






----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As little as I did at the Garden, I was finding it exhausting but too embarrassed to say because it sounds so whiny. My doc is having me do a cardiac work-up based on bad EKG--I don't know what it all means yet, if it means anything, but it suggests clogged arteries and my father had to have valve replacement surgery. Every uncle I've had on both sides died of heart disease except one (appendicitis I think. I have a LOT of uncles..)

Ope It's pretty cool--they take all your blood out and put it in a tank. Hopefully there is no vampire with a straw hiding in the next room. (Did you see "There Will be Blood"? The "I drink your milkshake" scene.
See, I already have myself cut open on a table, probably with an incompetant anaesthesiologist, and I haven't even had the stress test yet. That's how I project and scare myself silly.

Nausea--The sensation I get whenever I think about writing, sit down to write, or read the crap I've produced.

Now THAT is marketing. LOL

Because of an INSTALL interruption, I just lost about a page of text. It's not much but I hardly ever lose work. I use MAC and it backs up like the newest cutest boy in the cell. It never seems to stop backing up. It should go beeeeep beeeeep beeeeeep to let you know it's backing up, because it would be a soothing tone, like pre-installed iphone alert tones you can choose based on your meyer-briggs profile.

Well, thank you so much! That's a surprise. I'm sorry I've had to back off on volunteering

As little as I did at the Garden, I was finding it exhausting but too embarrassed to say because it sounds so whiny. My doc is having me do a cardiac work-up based on a bad EKG--I don't know what it all means yet. It might mean nothing, but Google, my highest source for medical/surgical information, suggests clogged arteries.

Big time family history. My father had to have open heart surgery. Just about every uncle on both sides (a LOT of uncles) passed from heart problems.

Dr. Covington also suspects multiple sclerosis, but he's not a neurologist. Still, I trust his instincts, so that's another possible cause of exhaustion above and beyond Fibromyalgia which I've had all along.

I'm really not a front desk sort of person but I hope there will be opportunities for me to continue to volunteer. I also can't tell from one day to the next how I'll be feeling, so it's hard to have any regular schedule.

I guess I don't feel worthy of a membership--more like I let you down. Sorry this is such a long text. I don't want you to feel there was anything about the Garden itself that was so unbearable it drove me away. I felt appreciated and enjoyed the volunteering.

thanks...hope you are well...

this had to do with a play on the words write right wright which I love to do. Writhe is pronounced a bit differently more an assonance thing (getting the rhyme wrong). oh my gods I look at writing I did as a child and see I make the same spelling mistakes. Not exactly the same. my errors are not perfectly consistant. It's an assonance thing. I can't believe I can spell assonance. I so astound myself I competely lose track of what I'm trying to say again and again, but I'm leaving my errors in now so you can see whay I am so astonished I was able to spell assonance. consistantly perfect. Now if I could only spell consistent. once is luck. consistent requires at least five consistants in a row (see?) without deliberately paying special attention as much as possible to the spelling part and just write the word in a sentence casue it has to be natural or it doesn't count. '

And sometimes a typo is just a typo. Clumsy fingers. Oops another trait of Multiple Sclerosis. holy fuck I learned to spell that right qick enough. Here is my dilemna:

I don't know how to tell people bad news. Gods know why, but there are a few bleeding hearts and artists distressed at the thought of my sickness and "early" demise. Half a century is long enough.

I am not suicidal. I just think half a century is PLENTY of time...I did lots of stuff...I see poverty ahead (If I believed I could move I very probably might but the task is too daunting. Unless I move to low income housing but I wasn't ready to cash in assests that have dropped in value to where it still wouldn't pay off all my debt. That watch. Now that I can't walk I'n ready to take a picture of it. 

Life is not a challange. So I make up challanges. just to keep the adrenaline flowing. but when weird adrenaline choices are being made on a regular basis, they become a new regular. You keep needing to be more and more odd, breaking the odd speed of noise barrier and things go boom and you wreck everything and need to start over.

Which is on of the biggest motherfucking challenges. Look at that Graph that rates life events, good and bad,

[i've done this one...check back...]


I'm starting to  step back from my journaling and seeling how it migh work as a book. I think that's a good thing. But then, where is my journal? 

My Garden-Variety journal? I'll keep that one hidden or in a hard copy journal. I still like the pen on page. I like drawing (yes, there are apps to draw...I can't do that right wright writhe now.)

Boy Aspie vs Girl Aspie. Old story with newish twist

R U holding your breath? Let it out.

Let the squirrels out, too. They're exhausted. Even squirrels have a limit. Squirreliness morphs into surliness, then MAyHeM.

but what if they don't come back?
YAY! one less squirrel.
One fewer squirrel. HAH. hoisted by my own peetard.

less vs fewer.

U don't need to correct the world's English grammar, usage, style... you'll leave spelling to the boy Aspies.

CAN WE GET STARTED HERE???

only if u stop shouting. ouch.

I keep hearing cats and realize: it's my lungs.
NTS: get flu shot.

apply 4 disabled houseing STET

I said stop shouting. cunt.

Bye bye babie we are working. U can't work without me. it's boring and lame. and inauthentic. only inner child, innocent, can be truly authentic.

I don't think I have an authentic self. I never felt like a child when a child. Now I'm grown and act like child. No judgement. It's good sometimes to act like child: chasing butterflies.

there's a difference between reluctance and dread.

Amputation Below the Knee; Dying on the Table and Coming Back with Total Recall

If you must have your leg amputated, Below the Knee is the best outcome. Sometimes it's not enough--sort of wait and see if your veins can function well enough to regenerate and heal...if not, up and up and up til the leg is gone.

Did she do it to herself? The attitudes of some medical professionals, who were trained better (I know--I'm one of them, disabled), make them less likely to give empathetic help.

YOU DID IT TO YOURSELF.

Not that she denies it. Tells horror tales, some hilarious, about past I.V. drug abuse.

Now she needs a new liver an a new kidney. Some fat chance of both being available and compatible, but that's way in the future.

Like many addicts, lovers of addicts, cleaner-uppers-after-addicts, she'd got Hepatitis C. Can't get new liver until Hep C is cured. Cure is interferon, which is bad -- not as bad as it used to be but bad enough. Is she healthy enough to endure the cure?

They cut her femoral artery several years back. OOPS.

She's died twice that I know of.

I know a lot of people who've died. Hazard of being in anonymous program for anomalous people.

Just this afternoon, my housemate told me of dying of OD and seeing himself brought back to life in a corner near the ceiling. He accurately quoted the doctor saying "forget it, he's gone" and the nurse saying, "no, try adrenaline. hit him with the paddles." Wearily, the doctor followed the nurses orders--

it happens more than you'd imagine LOL

and zoom-- he was back in his body and hitting on the nurse who saved his life. Tearing the tubes out of his arms...this was 30 years or so back...and he said:

I tore out the catheter.

NOOOO! I cringed. I was a psych nurse, don't know much about med/surg but I do know there's a balloon inflated to hold the catheter in place. And if you DON'T know that, and pull the catheter out without deflating the balloon.

ouch.

serious ouch.

Anyway, she's already planning for her motorized scooter, her rehab, getting the hell out of Miami.

Back to the Keys where they'll deflate your balloon before you get crazed enough to pull it out yourself. Where her friends can visit.

It's Thanksgiving. My mother died when I was 13 then night before Thanksgiving. I hate Thanksgiving. You wanna give thanks, Give the land back to the Indians you stole it from you turkey-fucking bastards.


3 Men: one for sex, one for emotional support, one for financial support

Can't imagine what's up with the 80-year-old financial supporter up in New England. If I could have controlled MM that way...

If I looked like her, I'd get what I could from men. Though she doesn't seem content. She prefers cuddling with her 3 dogs and 3 cats, one of which I may adopt. Doesn't fit in. Dogs totally control attention of mom until bedtime when the dumb fucking chiuahuas are too stumpy to jump on the bed.

I used to be a dog person...it was forced on me. I am in truth a crazy cat lady. I'll love YOUR dog. I just won't have one in my home. Sort of like men.

Emotional support guy too emo...distressing for woman tending toward depression. (I'm not depressed--I'm sick.)

Sick since sex boy got released from jail. I'd thought she was through with him. Had been relief when he went to jail. Away from his narcissistic possessiveness. Want to warn her against the evil-ness. She sees he's all about himself. Texted her q 10 minutes while I was at her condo to meet a cat unhappy there. Knows she can't trust him. He won't get a real job. He's working all the angles. He's more insistent. And she can't seem to say no.

Here's how; NO. GET LOST you fucking vampire. I'm afraid to say that, it's a judgement and I don't know him that well, only see the effect he has on her: colitis flare-up, arthritis flare-up, flu... I am not only friend who noticed her physically/mentally going downhill as soon as he was released from jail.

fighting like roosters/ fred flinestone...next episode.

I agreed to take cat into our happy home to give her a better life.

My Ambivelance no no not amber lamps

My father and husband (both dead) were veterans. Imagine my ambivilance.

Principles before personalities.

Except when you're writing a steamy novel. It can't help but be steamy. I do live in the subtropics.

I don't fancy that word. makes us sound less-than-tropic. Rather than having a unique climate of our own.

technically,

just write it--first draft of a chapter in novel

It's okay to spiral. But bounce back . Like a spider. One of your companion animals. Grandmother spidert got her wrong.

Either get used to spiders, or give up camping.
I got used to spiders. Called those spindly other-worldly fast-moving horrors "Dad". Come sit beside me, Daddy Longlegs.

I did that  Fr. Face. Affirmations before I knew what ttherefore SEE?????hey were. [touch pad wonky. won't click properly. Stuck in "down click" position. Touch it and weird things happen. Doesn't do what you want. Ghost in machine. Mind of its own.

All errors are (see SEE????? above) are attributable to computer error. I can fuck up all I want til fixed. Operator untouchable. Error-free operator.

It's a sign from ghingod, mac, apple, same . Ththierngat should be god. God punished me for not capitalizing god.

as if he, er He cared about silly human designations of respect. silly.
rmined to write and now my computers gone wonky. A sign to STFU?
I was de

Suicides. three peeps  meet at aa meeting (sooo 80's) um CA? SLA? ha ha ha never been. "I'm just here reaseaching my play" yeah. right. U've been researching this play for 35 fucking years. maybe more. when will U get on with it????

Like Ray Campbell said about your scene. MOVE ON. No wonder you can't get anything done. Aspergers.It's not a big emotional drain sewage...no more than others...It's your BRAIN fucking it up. All this thinking you think is so important. It's not. Except to concince them u know what U R talking about
and
you have enough insight to move on. Gathered enough. Harvested. October.November.

Sleeping Beauty, with a Twist. Monty Python and the Mouse that didn't roar but cuddled.

the snake and mouse story. Fed mouse to snake, but snake not yet hungry. Mouse slept curled up with snake. Buddies. One day mouse gone and bulge in snake. He really loved his food. I think there's a metaphor there. Sleeping beauty. with a twist.
 
It's scaly and cool to touch, but flexible, I can make myself quite comfortable. Oh, he's got no fur but that's okay. We'll move to Key West and the cold blooded snake will feel warm all day.
wip 
 
make a decision. like you did with your brother. to be comfortable. and after that it was fine. Problems sure but on the same dimension.
You can't solve a problem from the dimension which caused it. Not higher, but different. Outside the box. Who's box? I don't see any box
 
yes! there is your problem. all possibilities are possible slow down you will never do them all. just live. one moment moment
like you just went ahead outside when you heard Tom rustling. Don't stop to thinks. But think first. LOL
Just fixin to do it. yup, that's my motto.
U need to sleep and eat. NOOOOOOO

Inner Child Speaks: too many NowZzz There iz no plural of Now

There Should not be a plural of now. You can correct, faster than they can detect an error, sometimes. That's not appropriate use of the gifts which all are given.
Nor iz hiding it in a bushel same thing.
No, in a cellar. Talents. The only book I remember my Babci having was a Golden Book or something of Bible Tales for Children.  She was not overly religious, I didn't have that horror,

-----human interuption. ANGER. edit. annoyance. edit. I want what I want which is to keep writing undesturbed I may never write this way again.
You always write the same way and you always write the same things. Go look at your journels NOOOOeeeezzzzz there is IS I tell you, some gold among the ashes. You have more ashes, you may have more gold. I don't know if shit burns but I imagine it does so don't worry about that NOW.

Now. Time to deal with humans. (owwww. please, nooooo) I am safe and cozy and warm and occupied by my own squirrel cage

which I hear over and over from others like me like you?
they say there's nothing wrong with me HOW could that be?

I want you to understand that I want you to understand. You do understand, no you think you do let me explain...I know what you are going to say so do you you don't remember? How can you not remember I told you and told you and told you. Well, the fact that you've so far had to tell me 3 times doesn't that prove MY CASE?

You fucking CASE? What are you talking about?
It's clear as mud to me. There isn't one me
You're spitting out the DSM3
DSM4 -R does not rhyme with anything
and by now there might be 7 or 8.
Because 7 8 9.
laugh, mofo, it's stupid.
Dogs dressed up as silly humans it's Stupid.
pr-excusing yourself in case you don't make it
NOW
NOW
NOW
you just might. fine
U R sooo running from teh NOWzzz. LOLs no plural of NOW.

I am not the same person today who promised to do this and thatnuts yesterday. I hope you do and do not understand I cannot write a sentence and be sure how I will want to finish THAT's how fast I change

like rapid bipolar

but tend to stay in the depression.
Maybe I am bipolar but even my highs feel like lows because my thinking is so skewed screwed.

feel like fear and not excitement. When I was little I was bathed in terror, but I could still pull an excitement rabbit out of my hat. No one entertained me because I seemed capable endlessly of amusing myself.

I can still do that I still do that I am 5.

a poem. This is the moment for you to change

Dummy.
uh
mmm

Change to what?
Now that starts the apocalyptic avalanche flowing.
An inspiration.
oh hot damn
I'm afraid.
It will be there later. There's no need for panic now.

I don't need to panic now.
And it's always now.

Into the zone
where one can focus
this may involve hocus pocus

which real is real I can't decide
which reel is real I can't decide

they are divide.
(that's grammatically correct in lolcat land R WE THERE yet?)

no, not yet!
is it soup yet ? no. not yet !

An awful joke
what do you feed lepers?
Pizza and pancakes.
oh, is that good for them?
1) Doesn't matter:                                                                 (I'm having trouble phrasing this)
we can slide them under the door,
2) No, but you can slide it under the door.
3) I'm not sure, but at least you can slide these under the door (the courage the freedom to move forward, to saying YES i am writing a POEM goddamn it

which is the lack of it is holding you back?

Courage (no no no no I can't I never have no no no not again (you can't leave it here, again. and again and again. and no, you're not a crybaby. Quite the opposite even as a baby your parents remarked on it. I'm a strong person beaten by demons my whole life oh wait, no there was that one time...
back in serenity
happy shitty life
shared

not people pinging like pinballs against my skull
again and again
blinding me Key Deer caught in the headlights do NOT feed-- I see that head of lettuce behind your back
back to is it courage or or
Freedom you lack
holding you back

what's my rhyme scheme? It rhymes when it does.

so there.
I mean, if you want a pear, crave a pear but only peach will rhyme (a poem a picnic on the beach?)
you detest the peach. its fuzz to your fingers is like fingernails on a chalkboard. But it must must rhyme so eat your lime...er...peach...er...pear (Odd how different are the ea sounds in peach n pear)

I can has write...poetry?
It's so elite so effeet (If I cannot spell "effete" does that mean I shan't use it? oh I did)
you see you carry on and at some point something you try is bound to work out
very British I believe I steal their usages. Some may find that elite and effete. But for me to change back to pure American brain would be false to me. The words are in my stream I shan't wait whilst we ponder non-sequitors)

over red bull infused coffee or tea
spoons I have measured my life out in
O! the queen we can see the footnotes now
Like Frodo when he dared look with a
ring on.

to be continued I am afraid
NO...this is where you choose

Time for blood pressure and kitty insuln
you peasant you
oh wow get beside me satan

What time is it?
Now.
It's never not now.
Kitteh noes this
I always end my poem with a cat
elegent
elite
effete
*steps in hairball*

a FaceBook discussion about an equivocal* photo

it's like we're a group of blind people trying to describe an elephant. at some point we'll figure out just what's going on here. keep talking. validating. 
Do you ever truly know? No.

The uncertainty principle. Deal with it.
Just saw Trainspotting. Painful but necessary. Good movie. Just a touch of the bizarre. (That statement might have peeps wondering about my definition of "bizarre". YOU live nearly 2 decades in Key West and see if your definition of bizarre doesn't slide slide sliding
down that 
slippery slop. stet
I meant slope.

the blue of blue diamonds
of duck eggs
it seems there is a greater infinity of blues than of any other color. Does physics support this? Possibly. I wouldn't begin to know how to even phrase the question. 

I knew Google before you new Google. why does that matter? boosts my self-esteem: 

I'm faster than you. You may run faster but I think faster. But that is all. 
not better, just faster and sometimes into walls.

make it poetry and u can say any damn thing u want

trainspotting. cool movie. watched it once before and hated it. Boring, Depressing. Now I understand more. I could write my own trainspotting. Flamingo spotting.

I could...if I could...if I can. Do anything. Pray to a gods I don't believe in for a message that's been oh so very wrong in the past. I can't write life till I live it. I can sense it in others. no, i don't need to be on heroin to write a heroin /heroine movie

the irony of the name is too obvious to be able to have fun with. Not very clever.

ACAs have a habit of not finishing. THAT'S IT. I never finish so I no longer bother to begin. So how do I go about finishing something? I have no more obstacles in my way but for raging poverty which we all seem to have. It doesn't even make sense anymore--money has become intangible.

electronic
away with the wind
I guess I don't deserve a call-back. that sounds like Kelly

She is not RoboJunkie. She is fragile fragile fragile.

A reason for narcissists, like X in Uncle's life. describing the process of needing to have someone all up in your stuff

YOU WILL EDIT IT LIKE EVERYONE ELSE, DUMMY.
IT MAY OR MAY NOT BE HAMLET (scale of one to HAMLET)yes this is unique enough and transparent enough it will do for a highlighter color)

    This sex offender list, like alot of other stuff these days, is out of control, this child did nothing to be put on a sex offender list, it was a stupid prank and nothing more, how many times has this very thing been done on campuses all over the world? Expulsion, maybe, Sex offender, absolutely NOT!

    Even more stupid if he had on his underwear, what did he expose to warrant being put on sex offender list? I'm guessing (obviously) that what upset him enough to commit suicide is the sex offender list and not the expulsion, kids get expelled for less every day, but the silly stuff they are threatening to put kids on a sex offender list is just delusional.

    How gut wrenching. Jesus, kid. The pain and terror he was feeling was probably enormous but it gets better! I will never understand suicides (except chronic pain, I totally totally get that) but for fucks sake there is no way it would have gone through. I am sorry for his family. Being a mother to 2 teenagers and a preteen I know the emotional roller coaster these kids live on but if any of mine were to do that - ah, fuck. I just don't even know how I would endure it.

    This is pretty big news in my area. A lot of people around here blame the principal. I'm not sure that the principal is the one to blame of course-- he's not the one that wrote Alabama's draconian RSO laws-- but he has become the scapegoat in the eyes of many. In fact, the principal doesn't even say "he will have to be an RSO", he just says these kids don't think about the legal consequences of what they do. Which they don't, but when have 15 year-olds ever thought about consequences? But now the principal may soon realize that saying anything other than "no comment" to the media in regards to an ongoing investigation has potential consequences as well...

    If he wasnt playing with his penis how could it be indecent exposure, isnt it just exposure if your naked?

    This is the toll which zero tolerance policies cost to society. So fuck the Principal, fuck the school and fuck us all for letting shit like this happen.

    Poor kid. Who are these pearl-clutching morons causing all this fuss over a naked butt?

    The sad thing is, he probably wouldn't have ended up on the SO list or been handed any real punishment. This would have all blown over and he would have been remembered at his high school for years to come. Unfortunately he couldn't see past the here and now.

    He wasn't even naked. How is it lewd if he wasn't naked?!?!:mad:

    I bet if a girl showed her boobs no charges would be filed. She would have been labeled a slut or whore, but I doubt any charges would be filed. What do you all think?

    An underage girl here in Oregon was charged with distribution of child pornography for texting a picture of her boobs to a boy.

    Those are all pics sent via text. I'm talking about flashing boobs. It seems like flashing boobs is encouraged almost everywhere. ALMOST

    A lot of states don't have a law against going topless, unless you're underaged. 2 of my friends were suspended for school for mooning kids out of the back of a truck after class, it was too long ago to remember if they were charged with anything or not but I remember they were in deep shit.

    I heard about it not being against the law in some states, but didn't know about age restrictions. I flashed and mooned all the time in school. I guess now days I would be in prison. I never streaked in the quad, but I would moon or flash out of a bus window. I never got in trouble though because no one told on me.

    I wonder what would have happened if it were a girl in a bathing suit streaking across the football field. I probably shouldn't get too off topic, though.:( My point is I don't think girls get into as much trouble because guys like that kind of behavior from girls. gnomesayin

    I agree, I think generally people take it more seriously when it's a boy because OMG a penis is bad bad bad. I honestly don't think he would have been convicted of anything though.

    I don't think he would have been convicted either. If anything, I think the community would have supported him.

    HE WASN'T EVEN NAKED. (not yelling at you. kind of face palming that there was even talk about any type of charges.)
