        I was thinking about your first potatoes post and how you tried a bunch of them, all different kinds.  I really wanted to try them too.  I was reading in the Baja group how it’s a foodies paradise.  Maybe can even find an exotic potato stand!

          This had me a little sad.   We had lots of barn cats that kept breeding.   I found this small litter that was born out in the field and brought them all back to the barn.  I was really upset when I found them.  Flies had landed on them and they were covered in eggs and maggots had already hatched.  The maggots had made their way to the kittens rectum and were eating their way inside them.   I washed them all down and used water to get them out from inside.  It was really awful.

          I went in the house to tell my mom that they were really hurt and to ask her what we could do.  She told me there’s nothing that could be done and they had to be put down, not only that,  I had to do it.  She told me drowning would be the fastest and most pain free way.

          So I went back to barn and got a large coffee can, I’m thinking Folgers but it was blue so I don’t know what it was.  Maxwell House?

          Anyway, I filled it with water and went into the barn with the intent of saving them from their pain by killing them.  Did a couple but it wasn’t fast and they  were still moving every time I took them out of the water.  I didn’t want to do it anymore.  So the last one I had already cleaned and decided to leave it alone.  It was a black kitten with orange specs.  That cat survived.  Grew up and was just a regular barn cat with a slightly deformed butthole.   Made me sad thinking I killed the others and they could have lived too.

                15 yr last memory post

                had a great time seeing everyone! Next date: Feb 7

                 

                Looks like it was just a girls night out.  I organized a few get togethers with the girls then they faded out.   Even started a group titled “Shit We Wanna Do Club”  but they didn’t want to do much.

                Our real high school reunions faded out too.  Huge group of people, lots not in the area.  The last one I was involved with.  I did the legwork and ran all over the place.   Got the place organized, menu details, the works.  Then the birds chipped and changed it all.  I didn’t go, and didn’t do it again either.   My understanding was it was pretty small turn out.   Don’t think they’ve done another full class reunion since.

                  The game some of the guys are playing has a pretty cool intro.  They seem to really like it 🙂

                      The other time I had the dream of someone cutting in was with that guy, Sorin.

                      We were trading pictures, all seemed cool.   Then one picture popped of a guy and a girl flying in a car and my reaction was a panic and I just started saying no, no, no.   Then I calmed myself down.  I thought well maybe that’s just something I have to get past and responded.

                      Later on I had the dream about someone trying to cut in.  I don’t remember the dance part.  But the scene that followed I remember was you in a dentists chair, laying back.  All these naked women around it on the floor trying to climb up on it.   I went over to you, but I was flying above you.  Grabbed ahold of you and flew upwards and left it.

                      If something came next I don’t recall.   I do remember posting that it was going to be resolved or would soon be.  I spent some time on FB after that.

                      Interesting thing happened too, Sorin and I were no longer friended on FB, though I never touched it.  He did try to re-friend, but I didn’t reciprocate.

                        The other thing that’s sad about that story, my mom would have never told me to do that if it were puppies.   We had a litter of puppies that were very sick when we had Hanzel and Gretel, they were shepherds she raised to breed.  Gretel’s litter was huge, 13 or 14 pups and she couldn’t deliver them all.  One or two died inside her and her milk got poisoned.  As the puppies were nursing they were dying.  We brought her and the pups to the vet immediately.  5 survived.  The vet said we couldn’t let them nurse anymore.  We had to bottle feed them.  So that’s what we did, every 4 hours for a couple of weeks.  She would wake up my sister and I in the middle of the night to do it.    They all lived and we found them homes.

                          You know,  I followed your post.   The one that said the bulk of the population was on the east side of the map.   I didn’t meet anyone I knew till I got to the coast once I left Texas.  Skipped the people in NM and AZ.

                          I was happy to see these guys though.  Kanien is the taller dude and Tourach is the smaller one, their gaming names anyway.  I had gamed with both of them almost my entire time in UDL.  Both married but their wives didn’t join us for our dinner out on the town.

                          We all met at Kanien’s apartment.  I met his wife there, her name is Roxanne as well.  She’s asian.  It’s not her real name but the name she picked when she got to the states.   Tour’s wife is a bit of a hippie chick.  She’s very much into Yoga, they did classes together.  At least they did, not sure what they are up to now, he left social media all together, took a leave of absence from the guild too.  Though he was hanging back in discord again when we all met up.

                                Kind of funny part about the images that came through yesterday.

                                The farm scene was very green, that’s was my Moorestown home.   I was wearing a black jacket and blue jeans yesterday.

                                The dark haired lady was wearing a red dress.

                                Couple odd things that didn’t connect
                                -Both Sweetie and Salina were blondes.  I rarely played brunettes in games.  I did have a red haired Undead Mage in World of Warcraft.
                                –  I never opted for the gun as my weapon, not sure I had a choice in mafia wars.  There were a couple of games I played a few times, just never got into the shoot em up play style.
                                –  I wasn’t playing UO at the farm house.  But I had just been thinking of it for an incident that happened with the kittens.

                                  Ultima Online, my first big MMO.

                                  My characters were max’d in magery and archery for their combat skills.  Awesome thing about that game, could fight on foot or on horseback.   I talked about it before.   Salina was my blue-bee and Sweetie was my Dread Lady in red, except I dressed her in white and Salina was in pink.   Their names on the screen were red and blue though.   That’s how you were alerted of a player’s status, by the color of their name tags.  That game was so much fun, one of the first of it’s kind.  Loved it.  The player killer was my part time gig though, Salina always my main.

                                    Yesterday was a bit harder of a drive.   I woke up earlier and kept feeling sleepy on the road.  Did pull over to try to take a short nap and get my energy back.

                                    While I was driving I did have the profile images pop into my head.  Then I thought about you and the lady trying to manipulate me through little wiz and I got really angry.  Then a Katniss Everdeen scene played out.

                                    We were at my childhood home in Moorestown standing in drive way.  The picture of the Renaissance faire with me shooting the bow popped and I went into the picture.  I took the bow then rematerialized back in the driveway standing between the two of you.   I fired at you first, hit your left eye.  Then did this turn and somersault landing one knee down and one knee up, aimed and fired, taking out her left leg.   Stood up, put the bow on back, and kept walking down the drive a bit.

                                    Popped out of the images scene, back to driving.  I carried the anger for awhile, was trying to understand what/why I was feeling that way.  Then the next scene unfolded.

                                    At that point I set up the bow to aim at the sky.  Spring loaded.  I got into it and had it shoot me up to the clouds.  You were there, wearing a white T shirt and jeans and we started dancing together.  It was a couples country western line dance and we had fun and were smiling again.   That was the end of it.

                                    Was a bit weird cause I kept thinking we already played this scene months ago first time I saw the pics.  The dance did clear the feelings I was having and I was happy about that.

                                      The place we went to for dinner was pretty awesome for an Undead Lords get together, especially for who was present.   The 3 of us were usually in leadership positions with each game.  Kanien was pretty awesome at gaming, they both were, but Kanien had a mastermind type of thinking.  A lot of the guys did look up to him over the years.  Tourach and I were pretty close buds, and did most of the day to day stuff with keeping the guild in order and everyone together.   Tourach was a bit mother hen-y too, we worked great together.  Sometimes spent hours on the phone planning stuff.   One of Kanien’s favorite lines to people when he wanted to point out he was right was “it was a come to Jesus moment”.   And here we all were.    Another one of his favorite lines was “you’re either part of the problem or part of the solution”.   Lead, follow, or get out of the way type thing.

                                      I did game again for a short bit back in 2021.   Kanien was the guild leader, but the guild was pitted against each other.  When he won the election half the guild quit.  Was pretty upsetting for me to see.  We had our member conflicts before but none like this.  The tendency Kanien developed was though he aged and got busy with life, he still wanted to hold the title of guild leader, but get everyone else to do the work.  Kanien regularly tried to pull people’s strings behind the scenes and as the guild aged more people discussed it publicly and grew bitter about it.  So I wanted to try to get things sorted.   I had a very heated discussion with him about title holders and people not doing their jobs.  Got the gal he Knighted out of leadership, who was contributing to the animosity between members, and stepped in her place.  A few others got switched out.  Overall though, Kanien was pretty much MIA for the duration of the year, but he could only be replaced by election.  The guild leader selected his cabinet.  He said he was busy with programming something for the Ukraine conflict.  So the rest of the officers had to do everything but couldn’t make the final decisions without him.  I quit gaming again somewhere along the line.    He opted not to run for the next term and let people actively gaming take over.

                                      During our time together he would only talk about game related stuff.  Tour and I chatted about life.  He and his wife were thinking about RV’ing at some point.   Kanien kept bringing up how great everything was now and how everybody was getting along.  I just told him my heart wasn’t into the MMO scene, and I was having fun traveling and exploring.

                                      Long story short, I killed two birds with one stone, and stuck to the mission on both counts. Been getting a few UDL dings lately, so checking in on my homies.

                                        Flavi and I eating out.  It’s how I look in most of our restaurant photos, bored.

                                        Caught the V though so posting it.

                                        Reminded me of the dream I told you about before.   Dancing with our own partners.   The part I left ou was I was dancing with you.   Flavi was dancing with his new lady friend, but kept trying to break up our dance and I kept sending him back.  He did get the hang of it and stuck with her.

                                        This was from his boozing days.  I had a Diet Coke.

                                        I did recently buy a new one of those jackets.  Smaller size and in blue and white.

                                          I was thinking about Sarah, the girl who cancelled for the second year in a row.    Plenty of notice on the date, unlike last time.  She made arrangements to be out of town.

                                          Got me thinking about the differences between Holly and Sarah.  Holly very happy to get together.  We chatted about our dance years together.  It’s a great memory for her.

                                          Sarah moved away and played dodge ball.   What’s the difference?  Trying to escape the past?

                                          I had a memory of one of our outings I shared with her last year.   There were 3 of us that went to a Madonna concert, Sarah, Danielle, and I.   They got really drunk, I was sober.  We got pretty poor seats in the stadium, so we moved.  Roamed around a bit and found some empty ones that could see the stage.   Turned out we were sitting right behind Charles Barkley, the basketball player.

                                          We didn’t say anything to him just watched the concert.  But Sarah and Danielle were pretty drunk.  Sarah had to pee, she decided to squat and pee right in the aisle saying nobody would notice.    She was sitting right behind Charlie, and the pee would have been right at his feet. Well, someone did notice and they called security.   They came and told us to leave.  I walked out and watched Sarah and Danielle start fighting with security, screaming to get off of them.  I just no problem here, and walked out quietly.

                                          Last year, I brought that up to her.  Remember when you pee’d on Charles Barkley?  She said yeah, she wasn’t proud of that.  That’s all that was said.  Looking back, I thought it was kind of funny, guess she didn’t.

                                          I didn’t keep in touch with either of them after high school.  I wasn’t involved with much of the high school antics either cause I was dancing.  I do know Danielle got into some drug use cause she stayed in touch with Johanna, who told me.

                                          Does make me wonder what all happened during those years.

                                            I was checking for a place to go eat and this restaurant named Spectacular Tubers stood out.  So I decided I wanted to go eat there.  Opted not to go out and get Uber delivery instead, it would be cheaper.  Got the bacon cheeseburger potato which is pretty damn tasty.

                                            Then I remembered your potato post.  I think that’s a match!

                                            Then I wondered if I was hypnotized.  Then I thought about the baldur’s gate video, and nothing in absolutes.  Which would explain why my post got blocked when I went to say all that out there.

                                            Also, that little boy post, not sure why it popped but just in case you thought differently before, when I typed in XOXOXO that was hugs and kisses.  He’s a super cute kid.  His vids come up in the FB reels frequently.

                                            Been seeing a lot of cool videos in the reels.  I think a lot of times I should download and share them but it’s a bit of a pita and sometimes Im on my phone and can’t anyway.  Need the FB reel downloader I think.

                                            Also, my aunt decided to close her account on FB said she’s focused on getting stuff done around the house now.  Nesting instinct kicking in?  She and my uncle are planning to do a lot of traveling in the Spring.  She did delete all her photos on there, which I think is a shame.  But I hope she reactivates when it’s time to share her travel pics.

                                              Says “Who knew it would be a new trend”

                                              This was taken back at the townhouse in Marlton.

                                              I’m not sure what’s new trending.  I rarely eat hot dogs anymore, have always eaten hamburgers.  Did eat that yesterday.

                                              We were about to BBQ.

                                                Got me thinking about my gaming days.   Bow was my second choice for a weapon.  Still could fight from a distance when I could use magic.   Didn’t get to play it a lot, but had one game I could remember that I used it frequently and was quite good at it.

                                                  Then I got to thinking about my one dream about the guy with the beard standing over us when I connected the hair.  He looked kind of similar.  And that got me wondering if my soul was male like the Jung book said.  But then I was chanting down with the patriarchy.  Im picturing those girls standing naked in the streets with blood poured over them.

                                                  Guys wanting us to be more like them in order to relate instead of learning to understand and appreciate the differences?  I’m thinking Jung tapped in to his creative side and wanted to justify the feminine energy.  But I’ve already experienced the shut down of the left, and the right, to bring it back online.  So Imma poo poo on that idea.  It’s why the girls get stuck in their male sides of their brain.

                                                  So I got to thinking about the song Kings and Queens.  The line in it that says  “you may think I’m weak without a sword, but if I had one it would be bigger than yours”

                                                  How and why would that happen.  I pictured myself as Zeus battling Neptune.  But, it’s possible I can just tap in that energy but that’s not me.   So then I got to thinking about Mother Earth, our home base.  The unstoppable force of nature that effects all living things.  And that’s the most powerful force on earth, can bring life or complete destruction, doesn’t have a sword, and would be stronger than any one crafted by man.  The female energy taps into that.  The females have a stronger connection and would naturally have stronger creative abilities.  And their emotions can swing in all different directions, and change daily, just like the weather.

                                                    I guess I should have explored more.  Cause there has to be a staging area somewhere with bathrooms.  Can’t have all those kids on there without bathrooms relatively close by.  Most the stores have signs for patrons only.  But, wasn’t at the forefront of my mind.  I wanted to see the town and get a feel for it.  Wanted to find the place for my lunch too.  I followed the music for that one.  My tacos were pretty tasty too.

                                                      This picture was behind me and my 6th sense was going.  I was reminded of this movie when I looked at it. https://www.filmcompanion.in/readers-articles/m-night-shyamalans-the-sixth-sense-an-unforgettable-plot-twist-bruce-willis-haley-joel-osment#:~:text=Crowe%27s%20arc%20throughout%20the%20film,it%20to%20a%20powerful%20conclusion.

                                                      Sometimes when I look at pictures I see dead people, and it haunts me.

                                                      Facial recognition software installed.  People I’ve talked to come alive in different images I come across or dream.  Then I get scared and run away.

                                                      I was happy the other day when I visualized I was sitting at a campfire with a person I didn’t know know, to end up sitting next to someone in the hot tub that looked very similar.   The reverse of what usually happens.

                                                      At the time though I was thinking about the first theory.  What if he wants to stay with her.  Then I thought, it’s ok God’s got this.  There would be an Old Man in The Sea for me.  And he’d be the shoulder I can lean on.  But then I remembered one of my first dreams and that was me between your legs laying my head on your leg for support.  So it was a very circular way of thinking, and I was back to square 1.
