What's everyone up to right now?
#51
RE: What's everyone up to right now?
Depressed. No desire to eat. No desire to do much of anything, apart from be with certain people. Not drunk though, which I suppose counts for something.

Woke up this afternoon feeling very sick and very dizzy. Seriously thought this was going to be it; dizzy spells are what my precious Sam experienced in the days right before ... 'it' ... happened.

Spent a lovely few hours shortly after waking being with my friend Shell. She'd phoned, saying she was having some trouble in a nearby town and didn't feel safe. So I rushed to meet up with her, to protect her; public transport being what it is it took the best part of an hour and a half but she was so happy to see me. I make her feel so safe. Yet still I am invisible.

Was having such a lovely time, chatting and laughing, being normal. I felt so close to her. Then, purely conversationally and matter-of-factly, as though she was telling me she was going shopping or something, she says that she's going to see her new bloke on Tuesday. Why do you girls do that?

What confuses me though is the way she came out with it and then moved straight away to some other topic of conversation, as though nothing had happened. When Sam and I first met, we couldn't stop talking about each other to everyone we knew. That spark kept blazing, if that's what sparks do, throughout our time together and, for me, burns still as brightly.

I didn't hear too much of what Shell said after that, but managed to nod and smile in the right places. I think I got away with it. If she saw the pain in my eyes, she didn't comment. I think.

Fuck, I am so mixed up.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

A lot of personal pain on display in this thread. Having been through a fair amount of it myself, I have enormous empathy for anyone going through a rough time. Best to all.

As for me at this moment, I'm watching my beloved Ducks kick some Volunteer ass, glad they settled down from their opening jitters (they won the game before I finished this post, not that the outcome was in doubt). Keeping an eye on the Crimson Tide... they're playing well, but the score is closer than I would have expected. I don't know enough about Texas A&M to have an opinion on whether or not they were supposed to be a challenging opponent or not.

Homemade pizza dough is out of the fridge as the basis for dinner this evening... My pigs are out grazing with the goats and llamas in the pasture, it's a pretty day. May go sip some wine on the patio when the games are done, catch up on some emails, listen to some good music.

I was out a little earlier gathering eggs and noticed some sort of fly breeding over the water in my trout pond -- tons of fish were rising and jumping to feast! Was fun to watch them for awhile, and bodes well for good fishing next spring.

Friends are coming by tomorrow for a visit and I want to bake a pie. I have an abundance of blackberries and apples. Which sort shall I make?

Make an apple pie and a blackberry cobbler.
Dont forget to pick-up some vanilla ice cream,
or maybe you could make some? I love to cook.
I have three favorite pizza crust recipes that I
make depending on the home made sauce and
the toppings I will be using. I love food! Cheers.

LOL, vanilla ice cream is perennially in the freezer, just for this reason... pies and cobblers. Smile I love to cook, too, but we have a fantastic local dairy that makes magnificent ice cream, so I don't often bother with that.

Would love your homemade sauce recipes if you care to share them! I have a couple, but I'm always on the lookout for more!

About to watch Insidious on Fearnet.

I haven't seen Insidious 2 yet, planning on it though.
“Live a good life. If there are gods and they are just, then they will not care how devout you have been, but will welcome you based on the virtues you have lived by. If there are gods, but unjust, then you should not want to worship them. If there are no gods, then you will be gone, but will have lived a noble life that will live on in the memories of your loved ones.” - Marcus Aurelius

Getting ready to go out for some German cuisine, with giant steins of amnesia-inducing bier.
