the goose wanted to gander...
I am a wandering peruser now. I was an active poster but no more. I post maybe every full moon or is it new moon? I have become infrequent. but who cares anyway...

I happened upon a poster.
wandering and perusing.
Gandering at goosers.
Infrequent not late.If I raised up a toaster
as a show of confusing,
it would lead to a juicer.
with breakfast our fate.

I DO!!!!!
jai,
have the birds come out to play?
are you at home,
sipping your wine
and watching them dine
upon the feed
you left for them
so they can poop on your car
and deck
and house
and hair
on your way to work?
why so blue sounding? i have a tooth in the furthest corner of my mouth that aches just for you.some may say it's a wisdom tooth, but i highly doubt that. wisdom is not my strongest suit!
how loud do i have to scream it?
I MISS YOU JAI!!!!!!
I MISS YOU JAI!!!!!!
I MISS YOU JAI!!!!!!
I MISS YOU JAI!!!!!!
I MISS YOU JAI!!!!!!(with conditions of course, as long as you're not flirting with kid :)

Ah
JaiI think about you often, and am always happy to see your name here. I'm so sorry I dropped the ball on our communications, I was really enjoying them. when I get stressed or depressed.. I do that, I know how it appears, and yet I can't seem to change it.
I'm sorry if it added to your feeling of not being cared about.

> JaiHmmmm.
It would be impossible to answer that if you didn't post, wouldn't it?
It's far easier to have a relationship if the parties to it each contribute, n'est-ce pas?
And look at the lurkers who have come out of the woodwork in response! James K! Tabs and Gabs! A veritable reunion.

either you're a virgo (and no offense to any virgos out there but i dated one for 7 years and have come to have some serious issues with them)... acutally lar, tell me, as i'm very curious, are you in fact a virgo?
but, back to what i was saying.... never f*cking mind.
muttering under breath.... analyst, researcher, critic..... damn virgos.
is ti impossible to support someone without asking a question? is it so impossible to think that maybe someone needs support and perhaps not a 'talking down to' when they say they post rather infrequently and feel that no one cares?
shew that was quite a relief,
kk
and jai my sweet, i'm so very sorry to interupt your post with this. i'm pissed and just have to say something about it! i do feel bad, as this is your thread and shouldn't be interrupted with my silly pouts or outbursts or whatever you want to call this, but i needed to get that out. and i do want you to know you are missed when you don't post. sorry sorry sorry darling.

No.
And I've got issues with closing remarks such as 'but who cares anyway.' I was around far too much of that stuff when I grew up. I feel manipulated when I hear/read something like that, like the opportunity to simply and spontaneously be supportive or empathetic has been stolen away, before I even had a chance to respond. I did try to be supportive, coming from where I am now. It may be my baggage, but there you have it.

well, perhaps jai was jsut saying that she honestly feels that no one cares that she hasn't posted in a while.
is she not allowed to say so? how would that be manupilative towards you? what's that got to do with you?
geez, and i thought i was narcisistic!

KK,the truth of the matter is...It's all about me...moi...myself.....I.
Got that sugar...and don't you forget it.!!!...OK....OK....everybody knows it's all about you. Sorry. I lost my mind for a brief moment...better a brief moment than the 3 years when I lost it last time. Just feeling a tad anxious. Can I have one of your Klonopin pretty please. I don't do drama very well. You on the other hand should win an Oscar. ;) Good to see ya round these parts....Ms KKOG. That should start em wondering.Now for the matter at hand.
Jai. Don't be ridiculous (I'm writing that with a heavy Italian accent)
You have been a valued member of these here Crazy boards for a very long time. I don't post much anymore, but..... Whenever you call me I'll be there....Whenever you need me I'll be there...I'll be around. Catchy tune huh. This should drive KK over the edge.(She's very jealous ya know)Peace and Happiness

And another viewpoint is..
I've closed with remarks like that when I'm feeling self conscious about posting something I feel is self indulgent.
I'll put something like "But I guess it doesn't matter does it?" as a way of acknowledging that when, I dont' seem to have the will power to just not post.. So really it's all about *ME*Nah, I won't even try to compete with that last part.

She didn't say, "but I don't care anyway." IMHO, the difference is more than trivial.

This has a very interesting subtext (doesn't it? I'd hate to say the wrong thing), about which I am unable to say anything at all.

In reply to Re: you know what?, posted by Declan on April 11, 2007, at 18:35:37
about the subtext.
and without trying to turn this into me again (yes, i know i joke about doing that, but i really do appreciate jai's contributions and i hate that she's hurting. i hate even more to see kid flirting with ehr though), i dislike that somethign as innocent as 'i'm hurting' is being somehow misconstrued (wowsa, did i spell that right? or is there a screw i there somewhere? please tell me there is. i really need one right now) into a manipulation of sorts.
again jai, sorry darling, you knew i was a drama queen when i proposed to you ;) (imagine me pointing my finger in your face and everything! and you never did tell me about those birds either jai. are they pooping yet on yoru car or what? had a nice, albeit cheap, cherry wine the other night. made me think of you, me mister bob and those old, wild times we used to share, before my old, 'old man' caught on to my ways. those were the days. you sure do make the best eggs, even though i despise eggs. is it wrong to eat eggs and watch birds at teh same time? not if you're naked, i guess. i've missed you a whole bunch jai. do tell about those birds dear.)

but, i can be a sloppy kissser (or is it drunk? i never can remember. aren't they the same thing anyway?)
what are your weekend plans? do they involve liquor? (please say yes. please say yes. please say yes.) i have a feeling mine are going to.
jai, sweet woman, just what do you do for anxiety? like the kind that not only makes you wnat to break your own arm, but others' as well? any tips? (if you say read a magazine, i may be tempted to break your arm darling!)
we have about 5,324 bird houses off our back deck. and i fill them often enough to make the birds fight for food (oh, i'm mean, go ahead and say it). but what a show these birds put on. i see what you get out of the birds. they have a whoel lot of fight in them. especially the small one, they tend to be scrappy and can run fast too! but, most times i get too distracted with workign in the garden i miss the show entirely. (story of my life, eh? bend over to scratch my butt and miss the shooting star...)
maybe i'll feed the birds this weekend and watch them fight. i think you've inspired me dear. a cruel sort of inspiration, but inspiration no less. and those birds sure will be happy.
tkae care of yourself. and i hope you're havign lovely weather. it's rainy here (still! whatever did i do wrong to deserve this weather? it's been horrible for what seems like forever and it's just killing my mood) but spring is coming soon.
holding out for the bird poop on my car (which i have had some already, but not at my house) and that smell of spring again,

> She didn't say, "but I don't care anyway." IMHO, the difference is more than trivial.Oh. But Larry, dear. More than trivial is less than what matters. (in matters of the heart, dearest, darling Larry.) I always think of things that matter most when I feel the least or something sort of similar sometimes.
(do you know what I mean? I always think of you on a cloudy day, when the sun is shining and my fenders are dull. Follow me?)
But anyways. It is unkind to talk sensibly in a non-sensible context on Wedsdays and Saturdays.
So, please. Go On. Tell me all about your glorious baptism and how lovely the angels sound with the brass band playing so loudly in the rear. (It's a beautiful story, and besides, you bad, bad, boy, you never talk to me any more! My morning tea is so bitter without your honeyed-tongue lapping at the rim.)
Hosta my minchies. See you on the flip side.
Kiss, Kiss.

there's a country radio station around these parts called wkkg. we alugh every time my sister listens to it and the call letters come on. it had to have been named after me, even though it's been around, long before i was ever thoguht of, even my maiden name.
about the klonopin (clonazapan, as mr kkog pointed out when i wrote my ode. i thought about rewriting it, but this is as far a i got...
clonazapan, clanazapan
i can smash a beer bottle
in my hand
if you haven't had one
you wouldn't understand
yeah, that's about as far as i got then figured, if i can't even say the word without hesitation, tehn i'll stick with the first word on the prescription bottle, right?i'm sorry you're anxious. it's going around. perhaps a poem will brighten yoru day? and happily send you upon your way?
roses are red
but they can be yellow
kk is mean
but she can be mellow
things will get better
or things will get worse
but things will be changing
perhaps it's a curse
life's about living
or maybe about dying
but i'm gonna say
i'll be getting high (ing)hey, it rhymes?
and about them nerve pills. i guess i could spare a few. but i know better. you're a hoarder and probably have three in yoru pocket.
have the best day ever,
mrs kkog (that looks live kellog or something. )

I loved your poem : )
I think I remember Nikki saying something like this about anxiety "Well, if I take enough Benzos I can sleep through it"
That's about the only cure I've found too.
I hate it when "professionals" confuse anxiety with nervous anticipation. They say things like "think about what you're anxious about and what the likely outcome will be" or whatever
And it's NOT about one thing, that would be normal. It's a relief to me when there's something actually anxiety provoking going on because it makes sense, when it makes no sense it's horrifying.
