Don't start something you can't finish, Xul.
Tuesday, while I was out back chopping the giant pieces of dracaena that I had cut on Monday into smaller pieces, I had another damn idea for a fanfic(curse my brain). It seems like I get these ideas while doing mindless menial tasks. Before I say what the idea is, I would first like to state for the record that I have never done drugs in my life and I hadn't had any alcoholic beverages since the previous Friday. I don't know where this stuff comes from. So for some reason, I don't know why, I thought it would be hilarious to do a Once Upon A Time/The Big Lebowski mash-up or crossover or whatever-the-hell those things are called.
I'll give ya a moment to let that sink in.
So without missing a beat, my brain starts trying to come up with 'who plays what'. Hmmm, Emma could probably be The Dude, and let's see...Gold could be the Big Lebowski...hmm...maybe Belle as Lacey could be Bunny? What about the Nihilists? Maybe Hook, Robin, and Neal? MM as Donny? And who the hell would Regina play? Maybe Maude? Ooh, ooh! I know...Regina could be Walter Sobchak! ROTFLMAO!!!
Anyway, that idea would be a real bastard to try to write. Hell, I don't even remember how most of the movie went. I *could* look it up, I suppose. ::huffs::
Which brings us to tonight. I went to go shower and wash my hair, which means that I was in the number one place for crazy ideas and inspiration. I was thinking about the OUAT/Lebowski thing again and how in the world could I even make that idea work, when it hit me! Storybrooke Community Theater Presents: The Big Lebowski! Ba-hahahahahahaha!!!!!!
Yes, I'm practically certifiable. And yes, I need a writing staff. It would be soooooo much easier that way. I could come up with the comedy gold and then delegate to my writing staff! Now I just need some volunteers...

you Dutch peeps may be language ninjas, but you have a tell. ;D
Really? What is it? Some consistent grammar error?
Storybrooke Community Theater Presents: The Big Lebowski!
So a play within a play? Have you been reading Hamlet? ;P
Really? What is it? Some consistent grammar error?
Yep. Not necessarily something that my dearest Arekino does, but you lot tend to dangle your participles. ;D And by that I mean that adverbs tend to get left abandoned at the end of a sentence, all alone and frightened. I guess it's due to Dutch sentence structure. I've noticed with Google translate that when it does a literal translation, the structure is different than English. Sometimes it's kinda Yoda-ish. ;P
It's like with learning Spanish, adjectives go after the noun, whereas in English they go before the noun. /end grammar Nazi rant ;)
Have you been reading Hamlet? ;P
No, not recently.
Hey, I cracked open one of those Redd's apple ale things last night. It didn't really have much of a flavor, not anything I'd buy again. It had 8% alcohol, so I was a bit leery of how much I could handle. I've heard that ciders can sorta 'creep up' on you as they go down easily and the alcohol content isn't apparent when you are drinking it. Anyway, I used one of my pilsner glasses(frozen)and filled it, drank the whole thing, and then noticed that there was half left in the container. "That's odd," I thought. "How much was there? I thought it was a pint?" Nope. Turned out to be 24 ounces. After the first glass I was definitely starting to feel buzzed. And the fact that I don't think I ate dinner didn't help. Glad I decided to save the rest for a later date since the room was spinning faster than a carnival ride. So, so glad I didn't drink the whole thing. I wouldn't want a repeat of the Cisco fiasco. :/
Anyway, I ended up waking at 7am to pee after only 5 hours of sleep and then couldn't get back to sleep. ::huff::
I think I'm going to stick with beer for the foreseeable future.
I guess it's due to Dutch sentence structure.
I doubt that Dutch is unique that way.
I think I'm going to stick with beer for the foreseeable future.
Have you ever considered giving up drinking alcoholic beverages for good?
I doubt that Dutch is unique that way.
I never said it was.
Have you ever considered giving up drinking alcoholic beverages for good?
No. I'm hardly an alcoholic by any stretch of the definition. One beer per fortnight is hardly going to kill me. I like to try new things, especially when they are on sale. I finished the rest of the first bottle of that Redd's stuff last night. It's not so bad with food in my stomach. I slept very well afterward. That probably had something to do with the 5 hours of sleep the previous night. I ended up getting up past 1pm even though I went to bed relatively early for me. I didn't even finish watching You Kill Me, which is one of my favorite movies. ;P
I never said it was.
If it's not unique to Dutch then it's not much of a tell.
I'm hardly an alcoholic by any stretch of the definition.
I wasn't trying to suggest that you are.
One beer per fortnight is hardly going to kill me.
I agree.
You Kill Me
I don't think I've ever seen that movie. I shall have to make an effort to find it now. :)
Well, I'm off to sleep now. Good night, see you in the morning. ;)
If it's not unique to Dutch then it's not much of a tell
Since I'm not familiar with every language on the planet, I can't say whether it's unique or not. I *do* know that it seems to be a common thing that I've noticed. It's a tell in my book.
Sigh, I'm in a bit of a mood. I bet you can guess why. QoH just *can't* seem to leave me alone for 5 fucking minutes. It's so damn unnatural. All she wants to do is follow me around while talking incessantly about a bunch of crap that I couldn't give a shit about.
Like I said earlier, I got up late and had wanted to wash my car since it is kinda nasty from sitting unused in the carport where all the frogs and lizards shit all over it and the spiders up in the rafters drop webbing on it.
Since nothing can be a simple thing around here, to get my car out I first have to move QoH's truck out of the way as it's parked in the driveway in front of my car. After I move hers, then move mine over to the side yard, I have to back hers back in so it's not sitting on the sidewalk blocking things.
After the musical cars maneuver, I figured I should check the air pressure in my car's tires since it had been sitting unused for so long. Naturally, it need a few pounds so I had to get the pressure gauge and air pump and do that.
Of course, QoH had to come out to see what I was doing. I guess I was out there too long by her estimation and had to come monitor things and talk my ear off.
Anyway, to try to make a long story short, I had to go get the step ladder and an old broom to knock down all the cobwebs from the rafters while QoH stood there and annoyed me. And did I mention that it was hotter than fuck-all today? At least it gave me an excuse to go in for a couple breaks, not that I didn't really need them, I felt like I was going to pass out.
And of course it had to be threatening to rain, so QoH was harassing me to hurry up or I wouldn't be able to wash my car.
Ugh. So finally I finished and went around back to get the hose. The very second I turned the bitch on, the part where it had a repair came apart and I had to stop everything to go inside and get some tools to fix it.
Once again, I'm taking too long for QoH's tastes so she has to come around back to see what I'm doing. Do you know how old that shit gets? Having someone coming to check on you ever few damn minutes? I'm a grown-ass woman for fuck's sake. ::groan::
I finally managed to wash my car(which miraculously, QoH didn't stick around for)and then had to shuffle the cars around again and then put away all the ladders and washing equipment etc which QoH came back out to micromanage.
So you can see why I'm in a bit of a mood.
Also, I was thinking about some ideas for a fanfic when I had been outside and QoH totally ruined my idea flow. I'm kinda pissed about that.
I shall have to make an effort to find it now. :)
You should. It's sorta a dark humor one. :)
Laterz!
all the frogs and lizards shit all over it and the spiders up in the rafters drop webbing on it.
This is making me not like Florida.
And did I mention that it was hotter than fuck-all today?
It's actually cooling down pretty quickly over here. :)
I'm a grown-ass woman for fuck's sake.
And yet you let her get to you. Her doubt of you is making you doubt yourself. I make that mistake myself as well sometimes. It's difficult to not give a shit about how your parents think of you.
It's sorta a dark humor one
Ah, I like those. :)
This is making me not like Florida.
I fucking hate Florida(explanation to follow). I wish I was in Maine or New Hampshire.
It's actually cooling down pretty quickly over here. :)
Or better yet, I wish I was over there. ;)
In other news, QoH had a fire up her ass to go buy a new printer/fax since the old one has been malfunctioning. Of course, the one she wants is overpriced IMO, but she always equates price with quality. Whatever. I'm tired of arguing with her over money even though it nearly kills me to hand over that much for so little.
Anyway, we were just about to leave when some asshole on a motorized old people scooter comes barreling down the sidewalk just as QoH was about to pull out of the driveway. She sees him and stops and then waves him to go on. (Just for reference, QoH is getting increasingly paranoid about letting peeps around here see us leave, it's not entirely unfounded as the neighborhood has gone to shit and most would steal the entire house if they were physically able.) So after a few minutes, we leave and when we pull out onto the main street, Mr. Scooter is stopped and stealing mangoes from the house on the corner. As we proceed and go around the roundabout, he sees us and then doubles back and heads back down our street. Well, the motherfucker(like most of these bastards around here)has been casing the neighborhood to see who has mango trees to steal mangoes from. So QoH goes around the next street to come back to our house to see where Scooter Guy went. Sure enough, the motherfucker had the scooter parked on the sidewalk and was all the way in our back yard stealing mangoes. QoH pulled up into the yard and the dumb fuck didn't even notice. I got out and confronted him with a string of expletives. He had about 5 mangoes in his hands and then tries to pass it off like it is okay for him to be taking them because they were dropped on the ground.(BTW there was nothing physically wrong with the guy that I could see for him to need a old people scooter.) I asked him if he fucking lived here(no) and told him that he's trespassing and I don't give a shit if they're on the ground, this is *my* fucking property, my fucking tree, and it all belongs to me, he's not taking shit, and to get the fuck outta here. QoH got into it with him as well and he eventually got back on his scooter and left.
Long story short, we went to get the new printer(more aggravation)and when we came back, the motherfucker had came back while we were gone and stole every low-hanging mango off the damn tree.
I really and truly hate these thieving motherfuckers around here. They think just because they want something that it gives them the right to take it. There is no reasoning with them. And if you somehow manage to stop them, they will wait you out and steal shit anyway just to show you that they are going to get one over on you. And the worst thing? Calling the cops is useless because the law in this state is so fucked up that the cop has to actually see the bastards committing the crime to be able to arrest them. I fucking hate this state.
steal shit
Yeah, that's annoying.
Maybe you should just get rid of the mango tree? :P
a new printer/fax
Do you use that a lot then? What do you use it for?
the cop has to actually see the bastards committing the crime to be able to arrest them
Because evidence matters?
Are you sure the heat isn't getting to you? You're using a shitload of expletives here.
Maybe you should just get rid of the mango tree? :P
I suggested that to QoH but she's having none of it.
Do you use that a lot then? What do you use it for?
Bidness stuff.
Hey, guess what? I got 2 thieving motherfuckers arrested today! Woot! QoH came to wake me up to tell me that there were 2 guys inside the vacant house across the street and it sounded like they were pounding the walls out. She is paranoid to call the cops herself. I got up, and still pissed from the events of yesterday, went out to investigate. Sure enough, it sounded like they were trying to steal the copper pipes from inside the house. I'm tired of all the bullshit that goes on around here. They were just the last 2 in a long line of people who have been in and out of that place looking for things to steal. So I called the emergency number and gave a description of what I saw. The operator had me stay on the line and tell her what was going on until 2 cop cars showed up. 3 officers got out with guns drawn and went in the house and I could hear them yelling at the perps to get on the ground. It was awesome. :D The one cop even yelled GET ON THE FUCKING GROUND, NOW!!! It would have been even better if they shot them or used the taser. :)
Eventually, they led the 2 out in handcuffs. There must have been like 10 cops there and at least 5 cop cars and SUVs while the whole thing was going on. Nice show to start off my day. And I'm well pleased that I did my part to get some thieving scumbags arrested. It makes up for yesterday a bit.
I suggested that to QoH but she's having none of it.
Oh, it's her tree. Okay. :)
I got 2 thieving motherfuckers arrested today!
Nice work, constable!
it sounded like they were pounding the walls out
Would have been awkward if they'd been the new owners doing some redecorating. :P
It would have been even better if they shot them or used the taser. :)
Surely you mean :P rather than :) ?
Nice show to start off my day.
And is the rest of your day equally satisfying?
Oh, it's her tree. Okay. :)
Everything belongs to her. Even gifts that she gives belong to her and can be revoked without warning.
Would have been awkward if they'd been the new owners doing some redecorating. :P
While the show was going on, I was eavesdropping from the comfort of my front porch. I couldn't hear everything, but I think they gave some bullshit excuse that they were "doing work" for the owner. I heard the cops ask where their work truck was and where are your permits or something. There was no vehicle over there. They came on foot(easier to get away). For a moment I thought the cops were going to let them go, but eventually they led them both out in handcuffs, so obviously I was correct in my estimation that they were stealing copper.
I don't think the actual owner knows what is going on. Ever since the last bunch moved out over a month ago(I think they were renting from the owner), there has been a almost steady stream of opportunists going over there to case the place and see what they can steal.
The first thing that got stolen, ironically enough, was the burglar bars from all the windows. At the time, I didn't realize they were being stolen. There was a big professional welding truck over there with a couple guys. I figured they were there making repairs because the bars to the front porch were kinda rusty. But then later that day when I went outside, I noticed that all the bars had been removed and the upstairs windows had been broken in the process. I thought it kinda odd for a homeowner to be removing the very thing that is supposed to protect his home from theft, and also thought it odd that if there was legit work being done that they would be so careless as to break several windows in the process as well as doing damage to the walls.
After I made a run to the post office today, I came back home from the opposite way so that I could get a good look into that house. The garage door has been dented in from someone backing a vehicle into it, the 2 doors at the front of the house are missing, the back triple-wide-window has been completely stolen(I have a good idea who did it, the local hoodlums a few houses down), the A/C duct-work has been pulled out of the ceiling and ripped apart and I'm sure the central A/C unit has been stolen as well. These guys were after the dregs--the electrical wiring and copper pipes from the plumbing. The house has been destroyed--walls knocked out, ceilings ripped out. The only thing left is for someone to go over there and torch the place. I'll likely be the one making the call to the fire dept when that happens. :/
Surely you mean :P rather than :) ?
Nope. I would have liked to see a good tasering. And if they shot them dead, they wouldn't be back out on the street the next morning to commit more crimes.
And is the rest of your day equally satisfying?
Meh. Anticlimactic after that.
Unfortunately, for every criminal who gets caught red-handed, there are fifty more at least who get away. Most of these idiots around here either don't want to get involved and turn a blind eye, or hold to the "no snitch" thing because they fear retribution. Then they want to bitch when crime is out of control and blame the police. Well, report it, assholes! Tell the cops what you saw! They can't do anything about it if you don't report it and tell them what is going on.
Everything belongs to her.
Everything except you. :)
She's such a weird creature. Sometimes she's like a stupid little dog that follows you around everywhere barking her annoying squeaky bark so much you'd like to kick her wicked little teeth in and sometimes she's this dragon, this devil, this evil irresistible unstoppable deity with the power over life and death and everything you have. But she's also supposed to be your salvation when she eventually dies.
Nope
I hope I never get that bloodthirsty. :/ (okay, I admit like the taser part :)
They can't do anything about it if you don't report it and tell them what is going on.
Going by your comments on them the cops don't exactly have a good reputation where you live.
I'm wondering, maybe I should order you a cape and cowl, make you honorary Batwoman? :)
I hope I never get that bloodthirsty
Living around nonstop bullshit makes you that way. I hope you never have to experience it where you live.
Going by your comments on them the cops don't exactly have a good reputation where you live.
A lot of them are assholes. But it's kind of a difficult job when you have to deal with scumbags all day long, you have to be a bit of an asshole. Then the other part of it is they have to do what the dumb laws say and what the politicians dictate.
I'm wondering, maybe I should order you a cape and cowl, make you honorary Batwoman? :)
I'd definitely let you buy me some leathers. ;P
In other news, I know I'm supposed to be working on that drinking game, but the other day I heard "Santeria" by Sublime on the radio and suddenly I got inspiration for a fanfic. I got a whole bunch of different scenes and things I want to put into it all written out, but I'm lacking a bit of a plot and motivations for the main characters. Now I'm bogging myself down doing research because you know what a nitpicker I am when it comes to accuracy with regard to details. Anyway, I've been reading up on Patron Saints and Santeria and some other things.
You know what I learned? That freakin' clove cigarettes have been banned in this country thanks to the current idiotic administration! WTF? They allow menthols, which are domestically produced, but not any other "flavored" cigarette varieties. And the really stupid thing is, it looks like some fascist protectionist law to protect domestic cig producers from imports, but cloves were less than 1% of all cig sales, so how much "protection" is needed? Crazy. I also didn't realize that clove cigarettes came from Indonesia and that smoking them kills you gag reflex. Such interesting things I have learned while doing research. :)
I guess if I ever wanted to fully get my goth on again, I'll have to go to the NL to do it. ;P
I know I'm supposed to be working on that drinking game
Yes, you are. People are waiting for you to finish that.
Now I'm bogging myself down doing research
Try not to get distracted from your main project. This reeks of self-sabotage and avoidant behavior.
freakin' clove cigarettes have been banned
So what? You don't smoke, do you?
I dislike cloves BTW. It's traditionally added to "zuurkool" (sauerkraut) which I loath.
smoking them kills you gag reflex
Handy for practitioners of fellatio.
I ever wanted to fully get my goth on again
You're saying that that wasn't an adolescent phase you left behind you forever 20 years ago? :)
People are waiting for you to finish that.
That has not been entirely my fault. QoH has been especially intrusive this past week. I just can't understand why she can't leave me alone for five freakin' minutes. What's the obsession?
This reeks of self-sabotage and avoidant behavior.
I guess you would know(and I don't mean that as an jab).
So what? You don't smoke, do you?
I have only ever smoked the occasional cigar. I used to know someone who smoked cloves, though. I liked the way they smell. I guess I'm odd as they smell a bit like burning leaves. I just don't like the option being taken away, and it also messes up a detail. I'd have to change some things or make the story set in a different time. :/
I dislike cloves BTW. It's traditionally added to "zuurkool" (sauerkraut) which I loath.
I looooove them. I used to chew clove gum(hard to find) and when I couldn't get it, just place an actual clove in my mouth for the flavor. I didn't know they put it in 'kraut. I guess your 'kraut is different to the Bavarian-style that I like?
Anyway, good info to know if I ever wanted to make out with ya or something. ;P
Handy for practitioners of fellatio.
That was my first thought. ;P (or for peeps lookin' to join the freak show as a sword swallower ;D)
You're saying that that wasn't an adolescent phase you left behind you forever 20 years ago? :)
I wasn't goth 20 years ago. I've been living my life kinda out of order. :/
I have only ever smoked the occasional cigar.
Really? What brand?
I wasn't goth 20 years ago.
So when were you into the Goth scene? And do you have pics of your Goth self. :)
Really? What brand?
Oh jeez, at least a dozen different ones. I used to get them at work when peeps would pass them out at weddings...Montecristo, La Gloria Cubana, Garcia & Vega, maybe a Cohiba? They can be kinda addictive. Even though they make you mouth taste like hell, IDK, something about it. I like the smell of them.
So when were you into the Goth scene?
Maybe a bit over 10 years ago? I still like the music, but I'm getting a little old to be dressing like that.
And do you have pics of your Goth self. :)
I had *one* pic of me with the full makeup for Halloween, but I think I deleted it. Just picture me with Dani Filth(from Cradle of Filth)style makeup and a black leather medium length coat and black pinstriped pants and stack-heel boots. :)
I like the smell of them.
Yeah, the smell of cigars is generally not too bad.
Maybe a bit over 10 years ago?
Why did you stop?
Just picture me
I don't know if I can. I keep seeing Beetlejuice as a vampire in my head. ;P
How's the weather? Still hot? Getting colder?
Damn, I'm trying to solve this math problem and I just can't get my head around it. So annoying! :(
Why did you stop?
To quote a friend from work, "I'm too old to be Goth." ;P (and it's too effing hot to do proper Goth down here)
How's the weather? Still hot? Getting colder?
It's a toss up between hotter than blue blazes and hotter than fuck all. I don't expect "colder" to happen before December, but some almanack thingy said that this coming "winter" was supposed to be colder than normal(that usually applies to the rest of the country, not Florida)so I'll just have to wait and see.
I'm trying to solve this math problem
You know I can't help ya there. ;)
QoH was being a massive bitch today. We were supposed to go to the store earlier around 2;30pm, but when we were leaving we spotted that MFing mango thief with the motorized chair coming down the main street, so QoH doubled back to follow him. Just like last time, he was making the rounds, stopped at the house around the corner to steal their mangoes. QoH had pulled into our neighbor's front drive to watch him. I got out to go to our house to lie in wait. Of course, QoH can't do a simple thing such as keep an eye on the guy who is less than 15 meters away and she lost him. She calls me up to tell me so, then comes around to pick me up. We wasted 30 minutes while she obsessively drove around looking for him. So ridiculous. After circling around and doubling back for what seemed like 30 times, she finally decided to go on.
We made the first stop, then after that there was a huge blowup which started because I questioned the veracity of her saying that she has "mini strokes" every day. Then she goes into her whole spiel about me "talking to dykes" on the internet again, and then has to bring up the whole CB nonsense, insisting that CB was gay and horror of horrors, I SPENT THE NIGHT!!!eleventy!!! at her house! and TURNED OFF YOUR PHONE!!! so you could do god knows what. Sigh, it's so fucking tiresome. The chick wasn't gay, she bitched nonstop about her ex who was a GUY most of the time, and the "god knows what" that happened that night was the usual talking, go out to eat, and watch tv that we normally did. I slept on the couch. I turned off my phone because QoH was calling like ever damn 5 minutes to be annoying. I was 28 for fuck's sake when all that happened. Then she was real proud of herself that she was going to call the cops because I spent the night at CB's house.
I told her the cops are not interested in a 28 y/o grown ass woman spending the night at her friend's house.
Can you believe that shit? 9 years later and she still can't let it go. And everything she says is a pure delusion of her own twisted mind. The kicker was she was actually going to call the cops. I still can't get over how she thinks a 28 y/o = small child who was being molested by the "evil dyke". Oy vey.
Anyway, eventually made half of the rounds but had to come home because we bought a shit ton of meat that was on sale and it was too hot to leave it in the car to go to the other 2 stores.
I hope she just decides to back tomorrow. I'm fucking exhausted from putting up with her bullshit.
So how're things with you? Far less aggravation in your life, I hope? :)
I got out to go to our house to lie in wait.
With a video camera, I hope.
Can you believe that shit?
I still think it's hilarious how wrong she is. :)
we bought a shit ton of meat
For the new gig? Or for yourselves?
Far less aggravation in your life, I hope?
It would seem so. Oh, I've asked around about that math problem and the consensus is that I was actually right all along and that the answer given by the book was incorrect. Phew! ;)
Hey, did you hear about the Mythbusters? They're going to change the show and 3 of them have left. I guess it was about time?
With a video camera, I hope.
Just my crappy cell phone camera. :/
I still think it's hilarious how wrong she is. :)
It drives me damn near insane. I *HATE* when someone has no effing clue as to what they are talking about but are going to tell you how it was, even though they weren't there and have no clue. It's slander IMO. It's insulting. I hate when people talk shit about people *especially* when it's all untrue.
And FFS, if I ever was going to swing that way, I damn sure would at least go with someone who was at least cute. I have WAAAAAY better taste than someone like CB.
Or for yourselves?
That one. :)
Glad to hear you got your math thingy solved. :)
I never watched Mythbusters.
Today was filled with more nonstop bullshit from QoH. She is like some vampire that feeds off discord and negativity. I hope she has gorged herself enough over the past 2 days to give it a rest for a while. That and she has spent hundreds of dollars on shit she doesn't need. She always has been addicted to spending money needlessly.
In other news, the pork chops that were bought yesterday were pretty yummy. I cooked some up a while ago and froze the rest. :)
It's slander IMO.
It could be worse. She could be accusing you of things that are actually bad. Nothing wrong with talking to some dykes on the internet (or having lesbian sex for that matter). I know that's not what you do and it's annoying to have such an image cast upon you. I'm just saying, it could be worse.
I never watched Mythbusters.
Damn! ;P
I guess you'll also not be very interested to hear that today starts a new season of Doctor Who then. Oh, well. ;)
She always has been addicted to spending money needlessly.
How come she isn't drowning in debt? Have you two ever been in a situation where you had to loan money to survive?
Pork chops? Hmmm, nice. :)
She could be accusing you of things that are actually bad.
That's just the thing. She acts like I'm out committing the worst possible atrocities known to man. It's the extremeness on her part, and the insistence. Kali in a Kayak! She is still using something(which is something *she* made up entirely)to bash me with that happened 10 years ago. Did CB turn out to be an asshole? Yes. Did I get hurt because I thought she was a friend? Yes. But, damn, live and learn and move on. If anyone should be pissed off it should be me, but I got over it a long time ago.
It's all so creepy, though. It's like she acts like a jealous lover, like I was cheating on her with CB. I really think she views me as property, and to her I was "cheating" on her in some way in her twisted mind. So gross. ::shudders:: I really think she views me as some sort of replacement spouse, but spouse as she defines it is someone who is a servant and unlimited source of cash. :/ She even had the audacity to tell me that because she took care of me when I was a child, now I have to take care of her. It's really disgusting. She wants to flip-flop between being a child that I must take care of and being my overlord. >:(
today starts a new season of Doctor Who then.
That's tonight? Good thing you reminded me. I did want to see the new one. :)
How come she isn't drowning in debt?
Oh, she was. But because of me(and me watching Suzy Orman)and stupid me being conditioned to think that somehow working like a slave and letting her use all my money to pay things off was the right thing to do. (The Suzy Orman tips were used to somehow convince her to pay everything off efficiently and not to run up debts again.)
I'm still really pissed off about all that. What kind of entitled asshole thinks it's okay to work their child like a slave and take their money and deny them a life? A NPD one.
I was conditioned and developmentally hobbled (emotionally) by that bitch. I'm so angry I'd like to go downstairs and punch her the hell out right now. >:(
Pork chops? Hmmm, nice. :)
Yeah, they were really good. :)
Kali in a Kayak!
You know, I googled this and it seems to be uniquely yours. :)
She wants to flip-flop between being a child that I must take care of and being my overlord.
But only at home, I assume? Is she different in public?
It seems very typically immature behavior to me.
Yeah, they were really good.
We had Brussels sprouts today. First time since the end of the winter, I think. Very nice.
How's the Drinking Game coming along BTW?
Is she different in public?
Not much. She likes to treat me like a child in public, too. The only good thing about being in public is I can usually walk away. Friday I told her to go fuck herself while in Home Depot and *then* I walked away. :)
Ya know, I had a bit of a light bulb moment just a few minutes ago. I think the reason she "paints me black" as they say on the PD forum is so she can justify her own bad behavior. It's always everyone else "making them" act the way they do. So, by portraying me as the embodiment of evil, whatever she does is justified. It's all projecting and twisted "thinking". Her favorite thing besides calling me a dyke lately, is telling me that I'm "hateful". Well, just for the record, I've never seen anyone more negative, bigoted, and hateful than her. She is always saying how she 'hates this' and 'hates that'. I don't go around saying that. So how am I hateful? I guess whenever I don't cower and do everything she wants like a beat-down servant then I'm hateful. If I have my own opinions, likes, and dislikes or want to assert myself like any other adult...clearly it's hate.
We had Brussels sprouts today.
Nom, nom, nom!!! It's been a while since I've had spruitjes. I saw some in the store the other day, but they were very tiny. I like the medium-sized ones. Did you grow them or buy them?
How's the Drinking Game coming along BTW?
Ugh. Since all the drama between the mango thieves, the copper wire thieves, and QoH drama + planning for the gig, it has been moved to the back burner. I don't know when I'll be able to think straight to write it up properly. :/
She likes to treat me like a child in public, too.
Okay, but does she ever make you treat her as a (needy) child like she does at home?
So, by portraying me as the embodiment of evil, whatever she does is justified
You mean like "If you're bad then I can be bad as well"? That presumes a desire to be bad, doesn't it? Or to find a way to deflect guilt.
to assert myself like any other adult
Adults are a threat to her? Authority figures?
Did you grow them or buy them?
I think they bought these. They weren't bitter at all and I do kinda like them a bit bitter but meh.
I don't know when I'll be able to think straight to write it up properly. :/
You want to give up, don't you?
does she ever make you treat her as a (needy) child like she does at home?
She is just a massive pain in the ass while out, she saves the waify crap for home, but not all the time. She pulls the helpless old lady card when it's something she doesn't want to do.
Or to find a way to deflect guilt.
PDs are never at fault and can never accept responsibility for there actions, therefore, they have to create a justification for their bad behavior. In their warped thinking, they are perfect and blameless.
Adults are a threat to her? Authority figures?
She hates anyone who doesn't kowtow and put up with her crap, peeps who do not agree with her, don't do her bidding without complaint, or behave how she thinks they should behave.
You want to give up, don't you?
No, I don't actually. I pretty much have all I need--like 18 different things. I just need to write it up in proper English instead of note form. :)
Sooooo Arekino-san, what have you and your cute face been up to lately? Have you taken the bike out for a spin lately? What about your poor neglected car?
In their warped thinking, they are perfect and blameless.
So she has an incessant need to feel perfect - without flaws or weaknesses - and any time this need is not met there is a regression into another persona: the Child, the Old Lady or the Overlord. The Child and the Old Lady function because they are figures that are considered to be naturally less responsible for their actions. The Overlord is a persona that only functions at home because it needs a controlled, humiliated target. That is, a target whose criticism can be considered invalid.
You know, I think we have a working hypothesis here. Now we only need to set up an experiment and observe the results.
Have you taken the bike out for a spin lately?
A couple of times. Just 10 minute "work outs".
What about your poor neglected car?
My sister used it last week for a few days. She had to go apply for a job and they even asked her to try it out (the job in question). She didn't get hired though.
When was that gig again? I forgot. :(
Okay, thank you Dr. Freud. ;P
Just 10 minute "work outs".
Maybe you should go check out that "mountain bike" course that is just a bit southeast of where you live. ;)
She didn't get hired though.
So they conned her into a bit of free labor and then didn't hire her? What assholes.
When was that gig again?
Sunday. Another previous client called today for a gig and left a message. I think she wants to do Thanksgiving. The last time she wanted our services, she cancelled. I hope she doesn't cancel this time.
Okay, thank you Dr. Freud
:(
I did my best. I'm just not going to bother anymore.
So they conned her into a bit of free labor and then didn't hire her?
I very much doubt that she laboured a lot over there. The job was basically for a sous-chef and my sister is rather under-qualified for that.

Okay.

Here's hoping. :)
Got anything fun to do in the meantime?
:(

Oh c'moooooon, I *did* say ;P
BTW, what you described was basically 3 of the 4 BPD types, those being Queen, Witch, Waif, and Hermit. :)

I'm guessing they want someone who went to a culinary school?
Got anything fun to do in the meantime?
Not really. I suppose I *could* write up that drinking game. ;D
Hey, I heard of an interesting concoction that allegedly makes one's lady bits smell/taste like maple syrup. You *know* I had to further investigate. ;P It turns out that the main ingredient is fenugreek which is also supposed to make ones boobages bigger. :D And also supposed to be good for diabetics like yourself. Lots of good things allegedly. I think I need to buy some of this spice to do some experimenting of my own. ;)
