I love October because it's the season of Halloween, the time of year when we face the knowledge that one day we will all be ghosts and skeletons, not exactly directly, but subconsciously or unconsciously, as we decorate, make costumes, attend halloween parties, pumpkin patches, haunted houses, and get ready for the big night, trick-or-treat kiddies coming to the door.

If we fight our mortality hard enough then maybe we can enter the tortured eternity of vampires, always in search of blood to keep them alive, sealed in coffins in the daytime, lest the sunlight vaporize us.

There was a TV series in the 90's called "Forever Knight". It was about a vampire detective and his friends who were good vampires. Knight the detective lived in a warehouse loft, minimalist and chic. He was sometimes depressed over his blood hunger, and sometimes tried to substitute beef blood. He tried not to hurt anybody he knew.

At the time it originally aired on network TV, for some reason I hardly ever got to see it, having something I always had to do on the show night. Anyway now I have it on DVD. I'll have to get it out and watch to remember how Knight got his blood meals. There was one episode in which an Asian vampire had to do an honor suicide by walking outside as the sun rose.

Actress Suzanne Somers sadly passed away today, one day before her 77th birthday. She passed away peacefully at her home while surrounded by family. Somers was diagnosed with stage II breast cancer in April 2000, and had a lumpectomy to remove the cancer followed by radiation therapy. Following a reoccurrence of cancer.

May be an image of 1 person, bangs and blonde hair

It's easy to blame the other when things go wrong in a relationship.

Yes, can agree that seems common place. Though I do not blame my wife save for her own seeming dishonesty. An example? She has stated she needs mental, emotionally security. I ask her how we're coming along.

"You're still the same old, same old," she tells me.

If she wanted safety, stability, security, how much more of that can you have if you get consistency? Another example? She had a trip for medical reasons. She said she had tried to get hold of a boyfriend to go with her, no dice. There was another, but she wasn't asking him, so I'm told.

I phone her and hear a male in the background while she's out of town. Granted, it may have been something on television. I then text and tell her to be sure the doctors take good care of her. She replies, "we will."

I'm well aware I have faults o' plenty, love. Also, well aware, I've been nothing but fully and completely honest regarding the relationship with her. Will own up to my faults. And did so as she ran down a twenty plus year scorecard, painstakingly fully accurate factually yet twisted in some negative shade of her perception to mean shite it was never nay where heeded to mean.

Just keep in mind, MMM, those same instruments, the colluding religious institutions and governments, have targeted gay people too.

Yes, know well of such atrocities, although not homosexual myself. Of course, how I am is deemed even more monstrous and some even seem to have tried smearing me as a child molester, likely due in part to my sexual orientation.

That failed them too. I just stopped working when students/children were present. Yet here again, when one does well at their given work, others see the need to muck about. We got handed check list sheets to start doing for each room this week from our assistant principal.

Our head custodian will flat out tell us if we're lacking regarding work. He's only said I'm doing better than he figured, but I could always do better. Our agreed motto and mantra, "do better next round." Well last night 'arf arsed it for 'avin' a tink on those bloody sheets, got me arse all steered afar from the work.

Phoned Gene, explained, "arfed it tonight, know the problem, going to get a frontal lobotomy and fix it. No more thinking, just do the damn work." That was left on his voice mail. I'm sure he'll get a chuckle.

Ultimately, may come to me flat out blurting asking, "do you want me doing the work or not?" If not, I can be looking the same as I was looking when I came in the door. I don't play politics and all these sheets are for is "pass the buck, CYA" ... Bureaucracy / politics / bullshit, all the same stripe. I have only time to do me work, not to push paper as well, me betters and more ups is there for pushing papers, I'm there "to do".

Fuck all to do for sexuality, naught? Aye, yet it all goes to the core of folks fucking over other folks for no damn reason, or just for being jealous,"oh that lad is doing well at his work. Can't 'ave that!"

I say piss on 'em all as I get hung, fuck 'em they can't take a joke. It's all their circus, not mine. I just show up, shut up, do assigned work, go home, get paid. Simple, no drama, no hassling anyone. Nay my fault teachers don't do their jobs yet I got to attend a 20 minute long "meeting" regarding fucking cell phone policy around students and teaching. 5 minutes is an hour to custodians, I ought to have charged an extra 4 hours but didn't think to invoice, besides see the paperwork clause. ;)

Yes, know how the world seems to work. I know many so-called witches, Wiccan are simply Lucifarian, Satanist, generally not good folks. I don't normally hang around anyone using clothes dryer settings, such as normal, general as a label. Rather quite selective in friends I keep.

Currently, attempting to keep my wife as a friend, even not still my wife. That may be against better thought, too. *shrugs* Can count on one hand friends at the moment. Yes, know there are quite a few that are online only. Figure maybe two online, I could just show up, and they'd keep me safe, help vanish corpses.

In it all and summing, the world is a brutal place. I'm just tired of everything needing to be a fight. I don't look for nor start trouble, seems it comes along anyway. All I'm kin to do, is do, do finish it, do toss lumps, so the other bugger looks worse for it. And yes, aware one finger points, three point back.

Hence, my apology in advance, and even that seems unwarranted. "Posh all, I was just pissing 'ere season n all."

*nods* Aye the season n all.

Hmm. Years back, maybe 15 / 30 that was EMT code and obit code for another word. A polite way to say the person shimmied out of their mortal coil of their choosing. Not saying that is the case in this case.

Damn sad though. Probably, like many a boy growing up back then, I got hot for Chrissy. Then learned about her as a person behind the character. She worked for several different charities for children, did cross stitch and knitting, could effectively use a gun but chose instead to rely on martial arts.

She was a very decent person and emitted light into the world. Another yet to miss. *sighs*

That "way" by the way, is the path through and within us all as each individual. Need to escape, get "out". Turn inward like the alchemist transforming led to gold. No other place for any real answers.

Psst, I never told you a thing, Raven. Everyone knows, "I know nufink!" ;)

A lady with Johnette's style of husky voice can always get my attention.

Speaking of, a lady that I worked with at Gabe's, I managed a very gentle touching of her arm in passing. It was kept "above board", seeming only a passing touch as way of an "excuse me". She huskily said "hello". Nearly melted in my shoes on the spot.

She had told me about a two weeks prior, "I know what you ask when you look at me, hear it in your thoughts." I laughed and kept it all level, "good thing I always think about sporks, huh?"

Of course, old axiom, "don't bullshit, bullshitters."

A morning I woke feeling a need to be cuddling with the masculine. No one in particular.

Gay, bi or sexually fluid, or as you say here "how I am" (you have mentioned your sexuality often in the VU forum), the bible thumpers make no distinctions. They hate all of that, and hate you. I'm not saying all religious people are like that. I'm just pointing to religious institutions that collude with other powerful instruments to hammer on you, just as they hammer on Wiccans and neo-pagans, on the basis of unfounded and unproven notions.

That's all I'll say, and you can PM me if you want further discussion. I don't want to make anybody think I'm in that hate crew, nor do I want to distract participants in this music game thread with our conversation.
