wednes | I hope you all have Robot Insurance!!

Sam Waterston tried to warn us, but it appears that the fine folks at Honda are just not listening. We'll see how they feel when all of their medication has been eaten for robot fuel.

In other kinds of terrifying news, we all know about the danger we are in due to supposed "terrorists." Many of us feel that this is just another way to make people hate/fear/keep an eye on our brown-skinned friends and neighbors. It's been an excuse for racial profiling, and for curtailing all of our rights. But now...The Man is trying to foil my favorite restaurant. Right, because anyone who sends money to their home country is obviously a terrorist. Nobody who makes such good lemonade, falafel, or shish kafta can possibly be a terrorist. I mean come ON, they have classic caesar salad...you can hardly get that anyplace anymore.

You know how we all thought Pentelope was a cat?
Not according to Xanga, she's not!

After skipping Group last night due to drama, I had a total mindfucker of a therapy session today. My therapist thinks that what's really bothering me about this whole "dishonesty" business has to do with what she called "The Great Lie." This is referring to my mom totally denying who my biological father is, even to the point of paying to falsify a birth certificate and hanging it on my wall so I could look at it everyday. I got "in trouble" for ever telling anyone the truth. All the while though, my mom was hysterical and fanatical about lying. Of course I would have issues with the whole lies v truth business, since so much of that is unresoved.
As such, I'm going to get off my ass and go back to EMDR even though I haven't gone in months. I just hate having so many damn therapy appointments since it makes me feel much more dysfuntional than I want to. I'm also supposed to call my Fetching Employment Counselor to talk again about how I might be able to go to grad school.

I keep forgetting, what time is that wedding this Sunday? Six?
I don't wanna be late, and miss the opening remarks; I'm sure they'll be funny.

A dog!? And it loves to play sports?! NOoooooooo. ;-)

Wow.. That's something about La Shish. I guess it just goes to show if you look for something long enough you are bound to find it.

And considering how much Japan loves it Giant Robots, of course they are going to lead in Robot Development and THEN Robot Insurance. ;-)

What in the world are you doing up at this hour?

Ha! I wonder if Johnny Sokko will sell Robot Insurance. I would totally trust him to know what's up.

Well, now that I made Commander in Warcraft I don't have anything keeping me up stupidly late so I went to bed stupidly early, so I'm up and at it now

I know it makes you feel dysfunctional, going to all those therapy meetings but I think it's great that you're going! I know it helps ME to go to therapy. Well, I go to therapy, AA, my psychiatrist and the therapist is talking about having me go to a sex-abuse group again. It's OK if it helps us - for sure! I hope that those things continue to work for you. It's hard to get into the habit of using coping skills and I know you've had much more discouragements than you deserve. It ~~doesn't seem~~ isn't right. Not at all. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you.

Hey thanks, and right back atcha, of course. Sometimes I am not as dilligent about my appointments as I should be. I use transportation as an excuse, but it's more about my tendency to give in to my depression instead of fighting it.

But you know, things are getting progressively better instead of worse. I'm thinking that is likely to continue.

I just clicked to say something very similar to what

shamrock_19_79 said... Going to therapy and working on your shit/pain/whatyouwill is the opposite of being dysfunctional. Sure, it feels like "what the hell is the matter with me that I have to do this?" --- and, believe me, I know where you're coming from there --- but do try to do whatever you can do to refocus that analysis into congratulating yourself on how you're taking care of learning how to take care of yourself. Cuz that's what you're doing when you're doing that stuff.

That part about learning to take care of myself is too true. That's probably the reason H and I have lasted so long (the 7 year anniv of our first date is 06/06/06) besides his infinate patience, I'm not trying to coerce someone to fix my life for me or reparent me. I was large with looking for someone to reparent me for awhile--it's logical, but not very practical under the circumstances. Even though I'm still smoking the reefer, I'm making great strides forward.

As always, I appreciate the support!

Saw this and thought instantly of you!

apols if you already know about it:

Anytime!

Keeping my fingers crossed for you :)

Thanks, man.

I hope you all have Robot Insurance!!
