Dancing in the car- me too! Ashing on the floor, but no cigs on the ground outside- ME TOO! Consoling my kitty when she poops on the floor or my other kitty when he throws up (he has a weak tummy)- ME TOO... the fact Kev doesn't know what the heck to do with me at these times- it's normal. It would be like trying to get George W Bush to understand why Albert Einstien rocked as a human being (meaning he was a goof ball and silly). At some point, you will start meeting people that see all of that and embrace it like you do- that's living, living in the moment- dancing and singing in the car. I'm glad you haven't changed yourself because people might thinks it's odd behavior- a lot of people will try to dumb themselves down to have people understand them. You don't have to do that, and you certainly don't have to put up with people who can't stand, never mind understand, your bursts of energy and such. It takes a special person to understand a special person. It's the world around us that is having the problem understanding us- it's not us having the problem of acting "normally" and having a mainstream sense of humor. Skcrew that!
I have reached a point with Kevin that when he's not sure how to react to me and my "weirdness" (like trying to get OTHER people to dance in their car while in traffic) I explain to him that I have happy energy that I need to use or it won't come back. :) See, I dumbed down my answer for him, but not myself. Think your man is hopeless, or do you think maybe he could understand if there was someway to explain things so he can understand?
> Hmmmm... The first thing I always check is the fly to be certain it's buttoned. Not that I want to see anything, but I want to tell him so that I DON'T see anything, you know!! Yeah, funny that Beefcake was buttoning his shirt up. Why didn't you say something? Maybe Dance Party USA ran a bit late???

> Don't feel bad about not posting. It's fine. I'm a bit hesitant about posting things when I'm not feeling up to it. I've posted some things I shouldn't have then had to go back and do good old "damage control" and I hate that! I always lead with "Stupid Post by Karen" Then try to refrain from posting for a while until I get my bearings straight. Well, I don't ever have things straight, but you know what I'm saying.
> I was talking to my old man last night about how "I'm special and he's not" type of thing and came to the conclusion that everything about me that I think is special he doesn't even see...Like the fact that I dance in the car, but never in real life, or the fact that I always cook with an apron, but it's a vintage gardening apron, or that I ash cigarettes on my carpet but don't throw butts on the ground outside, or that when my dog poops on the floor I pet him instead of punish him (??? don't ask why, I jsut love him so much!)...Just my silly quirks or my odd sense of humor...Just the things aobut me that make me me and he doesn't even realize it because he has his head up his butt or whatever. I finally said, "Well, I'm dumping you but not right now because it isn't convenient for me. The timing just isn't right for me." He said, "Ok, well jsut let me know before you dump me. Give me some notice, ok? Like 2 weeks would be great." At least we have some point of reference..... Do you ever wonder if you're special? Like, I know I'm special. But I jsut wonder if other people see it sometimes... And PLEASE don't tell me I'm special, because I'm far more special than most people I know (oh, I'm so mean, but only kidding, you know!! :) I just wonder sometimes... Another moment of doubt...
